This is a build I started from a stripped upper and lower. I go over the parts and some opinions on them. #ar15 #areo #areoprecision #shooting #guns #arbuild #recce
I’m starting my 308 build but I just gotta say I really appreciate that you didn’t torture us with a 5 minute intro of you running around shooting in tactical gear to the thump of bad metal music followed by, “Hey guys how’s it going” like you give a shit followed by “Don’t forget to like and subscribe” before we get to see the rifle.
An important part of his review is him saying it does what I need it to. He speaks like he has learned the functions and operation of it well. Kudos young fella great review.
Aero makes a good lower and upper. Fitment is great. I have a build using a solgw 13.7 barrel. The main things i stick by are trigger,bcg and buffer setup with a good muzzle device. Giessele trigger, bcm bcg,surefire brake and the vltor a5 system
I recently completed an Aero 300BO SBR build. M4E1 matched upper and lower set. Can’t recall the name of their hand guard but it is designed specifically for the M4E1 upper. Good stuff. I used a Wilson Combat match grade barrel and Triggertech duty one piece. I’m pleasantly surprised at the Aero professional grade BCG….better than I thought it would be. Law tactical folder and Super42 buffer system. I also use Olight products and have one on the rifle. Love the brand….I’ve beat the snot out of their Valkyrie PL Pro lights on pistols and they never fail.
That sounds like an awesome build. And I agree about the Olight. I never had any issues. I haven’t torture tested them like I have my streamlights though.
I saw that you stated that you had a Wilson combat barrel. Did you have any issues with rounds not being chambered. I’m trying to work out the issues with my Wilson Combat barrels and I’m thinking that its the alignment of my gas tubes. I used the Olight as well. It is as bright as the Sure Fires that I have on the majority of my builds.
The barrel is way more accurate than I ever thought it could be with subsonics. I'm getting 1.5 MOA from Hornady 190grn Sub-X rounds. Rifle also shoots 1 MOA with supers in the 110grn to 115grn doesnt matter what brand. I've got several Wilson Combat barrels in different AR platforms and I'm convinced they are simply better than most. As long as you use a reputable lower with M4 feed ramps those barrels produce accurate rifles. That being said, I always buy six or seven different types of rounds from various brands to see what that particular rifle likes. The magic sauce seems to be Wilson Combat barrels and Hornady ammo. It just works every time.
@@daNeterAUsaru999 See my comments above I just posted. I have extensive experience building rifles with different barrels. Wilson Combat just seems to work better then the rest but you have to use a good quality lower with the right M4 feed ramps. If they align properly its pure perfection....however, if you get any level of misalignment it doesn't matter how good the barrel you will get malfunctions. The way to check is run a very fine dental pick across the feed ramp into the barrel chamber. If you feel any resistance or slight "tick" where they come together things aren't aligned. There is a great video from The School of The American Rifle detailing how to do that.
I have both a Surefire Scout with the SR07 tailcap and the Olight Odin. I have never had a problem with the Olight. Sometimes if I wiggle the cable for the SR07, the light will cut out. I am not happy about that with the Surefire because you pay a premium for their stuff. I am looking at getting the DS00 tailcap to replace the SR07.
BAD levers are fine. They can be a snag hazzard under some circumstances. The thread-in bolt instead of a roll-pin holding the bolt catch on the M4E1 probably results in less BAD lever play. I have a couple rifles with Magpul BAD levers and don't think they are obtrusive, which is the main complaint.
Great build Bro.... I almost exclusively use Aero parts when im doing my builds. I have a similar set up minus the stock. Thanks for sharing. Just sub'd. Keep going
Looks great and thanks a ton sincerely for sharing, really like that timber creek furniture you chose. Will be checking that out. Do you happen to know of anyone else that does color matched buffer tube to rails? I love that look :)
I have an M4E1 in FDE Cerakote and there's zero rattle between upper and lower receivers. As I recall, the Green finish on the M4E1 is anodized instead of Cerakote which is a thinner finish. Any rattle on yours? This is my first M4E1, and it's impressive... Great video. Thx.
Zero play between the upper and the lower. I’m super impressed with the receivers for the price point. I have a few lower end ARs and you can tell the difference as soon as you pick them up.
I would also like to build a upper but do not know how. Also you have a new sub. I don’t know the spec torque like you mentioned. Can you possibly make a video sometime step by step so all is newbies can build a entire rifle fr scratch because lowers are easy to build. Much appreciated. It’s my dream to build a rifle fr scratch and have that knowledge.
