@vmpgsc3 ай бұрын
Nice vid. Yeah, the transition from building cool rifles to actually having to use them on the clock is eye-opening. "Nice to have" capabilities get sidelined and you quickly focus down on what you really need for 99% of your shooting. And weight - weight gets a much bigger vote after wobble-zoning your way through a half hour of offhand shooting. :)
@Maniac7423 ай бұрын
I'm kinda over new 556 guns at this point. I have a 556 rifle I'm happy with, and I will probably never replace it. There might be a recoil impulse or even an accuracy difference between certain guns, but for most people, a rifle is a rifle is a rifle. Until the firearms industry works out the next big leap in small arms tech, I'm not really all that excited about buying another long gun.

Im guessing your an IT professional or upper/middle management. I commend you on ability to deliver excellent info in a tight precise way. No fluff and love the sideways shoutout to Mike Garand Thumb with the "Tip to butt". Excellent weapon system. I have the MCX upper in 300blk and am waiting for my tax stamp for sbr and cans. While waiting I got a CMMG Dissent pistol in 5.7 and love it. I too want to have an armory but no funds and no place to shoot long rifles locally. Im looking into my own land but jobs hard to find right now.
@osprey-agency3 ай бұрын
Wow do I feel seen! Lol how you were able to discern that from my video is impressive! You are correct my background is in IT and I am upper management 😁. CMMG makes some solid stuff! I’ve never shot anything in 5.7 so I imagine that’s a lot of fun to shoot. The MCX is a great platform for multiple caliber uppers, I recently cut a 300blk barrel from my previous Virtus to work with the Spear LT so it’s a great combo I plan to do a video at some point! As far as a job keep at it man it’s bad all over - but the thing I tell myself when I’m looking for new opportunities is it only takes one person to say yes. just keep going until you get that yes.

Why would you want a suppressor that sparks as much as that? Much better options out there than that can. Loud AF also. My Sandman K with the 556 endcap has much better flash mitigation and is quieter than that can.
@osprey-agency3 ай бұрын
Lots of suppressors have lots of different use cases, low back pressure is a high priority for me as I use it on multiple hosts and it mitigates gas well. Sparking isn’t an issue as it doesn’t do that long term and has no impact for me. I have multiple cans that are good for various hosts this is just one. I’m glad yours works for your particular setup though, just keep in mind it’s like saying “why not buy a truck, my Ford Raptor is awesome for me.” I’m sure it is- but my needs are specific to a sports car application needs.

I would consult Pew Science as I’m not credentialed to answer that question- I can say that I had no hearing discomfort shooting unsuppressed. The 45 is subsonic by default so adding a suppressor minimizes the noise considerably. I’d check out a website called Pew science they really go deep into the decibels and data behind noise reduction.

Well It’s an objectively better handgaurd than the factory one and the Midwest Industries option. It’s lighter and smaller than both. I don’t know if you realize it but the MCX virtus and the Spear LT are functionally the same exact upper receiver just one is gray the other is tan -so it’s not crazy to think that you’re just putting a factory handguard on the same gun lol just needs some paint.

Yes so being a MCX owner you know that the platform does not have a buffer tube, instead it uses the 1913 pic rail on the rear. With that being said the CTR usually goes on the traditional buffer tube and not the skinner more square attachment for the MCX adjustment stocks. Is there a piece of info that I'm missing that allows you to use regular stocks on the platform while still using the MCX stock rod, or am I mistaken and you have always been able to put regular stocks on that rod, or is it a special adaptation or specific CTR model of stock I need to buy.

Great video man! I own a spear lt in the 16 inch variation. I really want to get a .300 blackout upper for it and run my suppressor with it.

Thank you for the feedback and appreciate the view and comment! So really what I’ve come to learn generally speaking is the mission should drive the build. I unfortunately learned that a little late lol. Short story long I bought the Virtus a year or so ago in 556 and then bought a 16inch 300BLK barrel for it, I recently bought the LT Spear and found out the virtus barrels are backwards compatible- so I got the 300BLK barrel cut for the spear that’s already an SBR and kept the 16 inch 556 for the Virtus. If I had it to do all over again I would’ve just had 1 upper with a 556 16 inch barrel and a 10.5 inch 300BLK barrel. Just my cheap 2 cents!
