Which NorInCo product? If you're talking about the company in general terms, it's probably the colored bandana: beloved by LA gang bangers, until it got a little too well known.

TBH, I don't really see the point, since it obscures your field of view with the bulk of the sight, which is the opposite of what you want for clay shooting. It's going to gently caress up your lead. Maybe for turkey?

at the date posted:Where are you getting your numbers? Shootings make up the vast majority of homicides in the US. Specifically, per the FBI all rifles accounted for a grand total of 248 homicides in 2014. Self loading rifles will by definition be a subset of that. That's nothing. If you want to save lives, mandate ignition interlocks on all cars instead, and save the 9,967 people killed by DUIs the same year.

BCM also makes midlength uppers with a bayo lug and their 9" KMR or quad rail free float handguards installed. No M-lok option, sadly. He could also add a Centurion C4 midlength cut-out rail, they're free float, but they're expensive and not super light weight.

chitoryu12 posted:About how cheap could I go for an AR thats meant for home defense? Something where Id at least be buying separate upper and lower but not building it from the ground up (just replacing parts individually if I felt like it later on). My default suggestions these days are: Aero OEM rifle on sale for $500 Troy 13" M-Lok rail - $150 B5 Bravo Stock - $50 OR Primary Arms Troy Upper on sale for $400 pretty regularly Aero Precision Complete Lower - $200 AND Aimpoint PRO <$400 Streamlight ProTac rail mount <$100 3x Magpul PMag - $15x3 You can drag the price a lot lower by waiting on sales and buying accessories used. For the red dot in particular, you can probably find better deals if you wait. There have been some nutso deals on micro red dots lately, and one of those on a riser could be a solid choice for a rifle you aren't planning to beat up and drag through the mud. If you really want to keep costs down, you could always forego the dot entirely, and just use irons. The Troy Upper comes with them, and a set for the Aero would be another $100.

chitoryu12 posted:I’m not exactly desperate for one. I do have a Simmons red dot already that I can slap on if I really need one. The fact that you want to use it for self defense is what's driving the price into the upper three digits, rather than "lol I can make a complete AR-15 for $350."

If you really want to see how low you can go, PSA Middy Stainless upper w/ BCG & CH - $250 & free shipping Anderson complete lower - $140 Troy or Aero rear <$70 PMag $15 That's a complete gun for $475 plus shipping & transfer and you can get it today. I'd definitely shoot a few hundred rounds through it to make sure it works, but it would be a good entry level option if you really don't want to spend a lot. You'd also need to attach a light if you wanted to use it for self defense, so maybe another $75-$100.

chitoryu12 posted:What makes a $400 or less AR insufficient for home defense? (Also, there is a difference between something that is $400 every day, $400 on a great sale, and $400 because it's used but still serviceable.) The lower tiers in the AR market tend to be distinguished not so much by materials but by their finishing and QC. Improper staking of parts, canted sights, improperly dimensioned gas ports, chambers just barely within spec, nuts and fasteners loose or over torqued. (There is also sometimes a question of substandard small parts, but every company is so cagey about their suppliers these days that for all I know Colt is getting their springs and detents from AliExpress.) If you get a good one, it will be sufficient. If. That $475 build I posted earlier would probably be just fine, but if I'm recommending something to a consumer who is asking for basic suggestions, I assume they aren't going to tear it down and look at its teeth (or gas rings), so I lean towards recommending brands that have a known track record of being good out of the box and are less likely to turn out a gun with lurking problems, especially when the consumer says they want something for self defense. It's the same with optics, really: some people have seen good use out of Holosun or Primary Arms dots, but Aimpoint has been so good for so long that in a pinch I would feel OK using one without backup sights and just changing the battery every few years. I wouldn't go below the $400 mark for an AR, because there you have to start asking yourself what they did to get the price that far below the floor of the normal market... And how you feel about that product containing an explosion next to your face as you defend yourself. Dead Reckoning fucked around with this message at 08:29 on Dec 1, 2017 |

I've never understood the freak-out about concealed carry, except as an extension of "no one should have guns because they might get in a heated argument, flip out, and shoot someone." The sort of people willing to go down to the courthouse, get fingerprinted by the Sheriff, pay a fee, and wait 30-60 business days before carrying a gun are not the people who, on average, you need to be worried about.
