[@vietnamtactical]

I wonder why they wouldnt attack america it probably helps russia and china knowing theres more than just the military that owns guns. Edit: The fighter jet and cowardice argument is also incredibly unintelligent. I wonder where the fighter jets went in Ukraine and Russia conflict. Maybe what Hamas did after airstrikes, looks to me 3rd worlders with no proper training were still giving Israel an issue.

I didn't know I needed an ASMR ar build video but this was great! I have the same Magpie action block and I guess I need to read the instructions because I didn't realize you used the carrier with it lol. Couple suggestions for future builds: 1. when you use a wrench fitting on a torque wrench, you need to have it at a 90 degree angle to the handle to get accurate torque readings. I did like you did for years before finding out there is a correct way to do it. 2. Forward control designs makes a gas block jig that fits most low pro gas blocks like you used and can be held in a vice to make installing the roll pin easier. Also, Geissele makes special punches just for that job as well. Makes that job so much easier.

[@vietnamtactical]

Appreciate the tip ill look into those jigs

[@capoeiradude35]

Magpie block was completely new to me. I bought a reaction rod already, but if I had known about the magpie I might a gone that route.

[@maskedmenac3]

@@vietnamtactical make sure you use a torque extension calculator as it looks like you extended your length by around 4-6 inches. So you probably put 20-40% more torque on your fasteners just an fyi. Also oils or gun oils will lube your threads making your torque wrench output a lot more torque. Clean build :).

[@ThatOneGuyAtTheRange]

Only thing id do different is to heat fit the barrel instead of beating it in. You get less chance of material loss and a tighter fit in the end when the receiver cools

[@mostlycloudy3069]

through the video, all i can hear are the sounds of freedom and nothing else. good build.

[@Justin-dp9tw]

Something about the way this was filmed is so satisfying! If youre up for some advice from a stranger. Remember to keep any 1/2" drive adapter at 90 degrees when torqueing unless you are taking that extra length in consideration when calculating what torque setting to use. For example, in the vid, the added length of barrel nut wrench is causing the applied torque to be much higher unless you put the setting at a lower setting to compensate. the amount to decrease can be calculated pretty easily since you know the length of the torque wrench and the setting you want it to be set at. Also, those magpul bench blocks are good for lowers and muzzle devices, but they dont actualyl support the upper receiver so torqueing on a barrel nut goes from barrel nut to upper to barrel through the index pin. The midwest URR supports the upper much better.

[@vietnamtactical]

Ill keep that in mind👌

[@PoliticallyInsensitive]

The torque specs are so wide for a barrel nut it doesn't matter. If you're really that concerned just set your wrench for the lower edge and crank away. Also, the Bev Block is fine. The steel lugs interface with the barrel extension. The barrel nut shouldn't touch the index pin regardless of what block you use. If it does it's out of spec. The barrel nut is pressing the lip of the extension into the receiver and securing it in place. The only time you're putting ANY torque directly on the barrel is when you're tightening/indexing a muzzle device. People just need to calm down and think about shit for a second.

[@Justin-dp9tw]

⁠@@PoliticallyInsensitiveMy comment was about all adapters not specifically a barrel nut. Might want to take your own advice there. Yes, when using a bev block/geissele rod there is a COMPRESSIVE FORCE that is applied directly to the flange of the barrel extension. However the TORQUE is transferred from barrel nut to the upper receiver through the threads since there is significantly more surface area. This torque increases as the frictions increases. If the receiver is not supported, this torque goes directly through the index pin to the barrel extension then to your Bev block.

[@DollaDollaBillYall]

@@Justin-dp9tw I came here to say the same thing. He's holding the torque wrench wrong and should be at a 90 degree angle to the AR wrench. Yea and it does matter whether you're doing a barrel nut or anything, knowing how to use tools correctly matters.

I'd invest in a reaction rod, as it helps with proper clocking down to the proper TDI spec that sometimes the index pin itself doesn't always guarantee, as well as reduces the stress that in caused on the upper from torquing, as well as a gas block pin jig, so you can pin that gas block bro.

Just a heads up, the way you are using the torque wrench is wrong. The wrench needs to be perpendicular to the armorers tool when you torque, or you will actually get a larger torque value than desired as a result of the longer effective lever length. This is unless you calculated what you should set ur wrench to beforehand. Otherwise great build!

If you can show me the specific differences between aero and Geisselle uppers then I’ll switch to expensive. Hell they probably come from the same factory with a different stamped name on it, mil-spec is mil-spec. If you’ve built ar’s before then you know the parts that actually matter are the barrel, bolt carrier and trigger just as long as you go aluminum and not poly

[@geoffrey3289]

@DBHC_PRO You can get thermal fit uppers from BCM blems for 50.00 doll hairs all day long. Good tolerances tight barrel fitment and dry film lubricant internals. If you have never tried any other upper, I could see why you would say that. Vltor murs are excellent noticeable quality differences just in feel and function.

@DBHC_PRO So LMT, KAC, Noveske, LWRC, LaRue Match Grade, Geissele Super Duty, Daniel Defense, BCM all have the same upper receivers? It's just the name stamped on them that sets them apart? Might as well run all Palmetto State Armory gear if that's the case.

Most want super-over the top stuff that makes the rifle heavy and super-useless. All my personal AR’s are very light mostly 16” and most have scopes, few have red dots/eotech. You remind me of many of my friends 25yrs ago. Super-tactical thinking and super-suck at hunting…or hitting anything.

[@4NaturesStory]

All parts can be bought for much less. It’s funny watching people spend so much to literally get the same thing. So much over-priced crap. He spent 1k on this rifle and I could have drilled out a 80 lower, build the whole gun, 3.5lb trigger and everything! For about half that. And the gun will shoot 1” MOA in a 16” barrel. Cant wait to see these guys run their guns and see how bad they run and how bad they shoot and never have a clue why. 😂

[@4NaturesStory]

@@vietnamtacticalLook at the hunt vidz I have. Mostly all in my back yard on my land. 🇺🇸❤️

Correct, 100%.

[@JenkinsStevenD]

After all is said and one I would still rate this build 9/10. Excellent job. A few comments: Did not check headspace. Red loctite on a muzzle device does nothing They are typically rated to about 500F which the muzzle will easily exceed. Might as well have put it on dry. Use Rocksett instead. I don't know what kind of solution you are using on the barrel nut threads but there really is only one thing that should be used. Aeroshell 33ms. These threads should be seasoned by torquing to 30 ft.lbs. and then breaking the torque 3 times before tightening to final torque. Based on the parts used, I would rate this as a mid-end rifle. I'm not sure how the barrel is being hammered into the upper but you shouldn't have to do this. Heat up the upper with a heat gun and freeze the barrel. Improper hammering of the barrel into the upper can (although it isn't super likely) mess up the crown.

[@DirtyxDale]

Amazing video. Actually love this type of untapped “asmr” 😂

[@sebastiancastillo1094]

Super clean build dude, love your work. Keep it up bro!💪🏻

[@vietnamtactical]

Appreciate it man!

[@MrRedspartan19]

love the video bro, my only pet peeve is all the dings and scratches you are putting in the build(yes i know it's kinda take a beating anyway)

[@KevinHuff23]

Awesome build, just a couple tips from master armorer if you care, when using an armorers tool and a torque wrench always have the armorers tool at 90 degrees to the torque wrench for the most accurate reading, you may also want to consider using Rocksett instead of Loctitie on muzzle devices and other high heat applications. Love the build though bro, I am a sucker for 50 shades of fde builds!

[@aqualyyte]

coming from building computers and keyboards, your editing makes me wanna start my own build now, great video!

[@vietnamtactical]

You should totally get into it, its a good skill to have

[@NoThisIsPatrick..]

That was so relaxing to watch. Also I had no idea so many parts went into making some guns, very cool.

[@themuffinman_G7]

I love the disclaimer in the beginning lol. sick build

[@jamies.2456]

You did your friend well! I am sure that he loves it!

[@Imnotthefed]

I wish we were friends… lol. Beautiful build bud.

[@dooms8870]

You are a good friend to have in the zombie apocalypse.

[@PointBlankGuns-Ammo]

I can watch these kinda builds all day long.

[@AVGVSTVS777]

we all need a friend like this

[@Cbudtf]

I’ve tried for ages to find a video back where a rifle is actually built. Wanted to use it as a reference to building my own, but had to google bits and pieces instead. Saved for the future, thanks!

[@vietnamtactical]

Appreciate you brotha!

[@raw2306]

Absolutely beautiful job. This is my type of ASMR.

[@tangocharlie2]

Definitely worth a subscribe. Thats an incredible build!

[@vietnamtactical]

Appreciate it brotha!

[@peptobepto]

beautiful gun. Not annoyingly tactical but not bare n boring. Good job man

[@NateKatchuk]

Your a good friend for just buying the parts for this ar let alone building it for him

[@stealthisdkey]

This video was by far the best AR building video I've ever watched on YT! ❤

[@vietnamtactical]

Appreciate it brotha!

[@Turttlekiller]

Do I have an interest in firearms? No, Did I watch the entire video? Yes. It’s very cool to see the engineering of the rifle, and all the little spring thingies inside, super cool very interesting, if I was into airsoft like I used to when I was younger I’d do this as a hobby for airsoft it just seems cool Edit: Typo

[@mikes.8823]

man i love being an American! that AR tattoo is sick

[@JaredMorrow]

I would recommend lapping the upper before attaching barrel. Also push sights forward when attatching on the rail because of possible movement from recoil. Nice build though!

[@hxdaro]

You don't need to lap the upper. That's fudd lore.

[@JaredMorrow]

@@hxdaro Not required but is recommended if upper is coated.

[@jjones503]

Fesh built AR should be an air freshener scent.

[@danielbaker8647]

All i could think the entire video was......mmmmmmmmmmm, nice! Oh another part? Oh yeah, thats the good stuff right there. It was a treat to get to watch you work.

[@vietnamtactical]

Glad you enjoyed the build!

[@DieselDog1929]

That’s a dope ass build. You should drop a list of all the parts. Ps, maybe on the next build he can do it as you help him along bc there’s nothing like a rifle you built yourself. Great work brother

[@vietnamtactical]

Thats a great idea. I might have my wife build my next AR👌

[@Tacman556]

jFC, clamp the upper when torquing the barrel nut, you also need to turn it on and off 3 times to seat the threads. Also recommend antiseize vs. lithium grease

[@ranchrodney8432]

You should totally film more videos like these. This was awesome to watch

[@vietnamtactical]

Im trying to get some out next year!

[@piratecarrots]

This is a work of art. Your friend is lucky!

[@vietnamtactical]

Thanks man! Appreciate it

[@KingCellis313]

Makes me want to start another build.great video!

[@CMB21497]

I did a matched WC set and used a WC parts on mine. It is my best AR IMHO. I have another matched set, but next time, I'll probably just buy a BCM upper and slap it on any old lower with a Geissele trigger. I will say that WC makes excellent parts. The only thing on it that isn't WC is the Superlative adjustable gas block, Surefire 3 Prong and a Raptor. In hindsight, I should have gone with a Plan B. I even used their TTU. It is excellent and a sub-moa rifle as well. Before optic, I think I spent about $1200. Haven't added a flashlight, but not sure if Surefire is the way to go. Arisaka is looking pretty good to me. I love the Malkoff head unit.

[@jtam70]

I need a friend like you. lol. Great looking build!

[@gargoylekingGWO]

I swear you are a Warlock i had trouble breaking down my mamas M&P ez 380 i couldnt imagine trying to do this phenomenon job keep up the good work made a new fan today

[@zeroxwolfx]

Pretty good, but if I just make some suggestions that will make it feel a world of difference: A JP silent capture recoil buffer, and an adjustable gas block. Fine tune it to his specific ammo and it'll feel like a real race gun.

[@mikeychad8532]

The asmr I like. Awesome build! I hope your friend enjoys this beauty!
