The Magpul catalog gun has been identified as an Adams Arms factory rifle, released in 2014. The barrels were from Voodoo Innovations (a subsidiary or sister company of AA?) and were 16.5" making them slightly longer than the typical 16.1" barrels you see. So it would have had a tiny bit more dwell time, but since it was a factory build the gas port could have been enlarged as well. MSRP, adjusted for inflation, was slightly over two grand. :) Thanks for the tips, gang!

I have had an Adam’s Arms carbine-length gas piston system on a 16” barrel AR now since 2015. It has never failed me, ever. I guess I got a good one, or maybe mine is built correctly and very well. Who knows …. but one thing is for sure, and that is it’s been 100% reliable since day one. - Jason/Freedom Fighter Until Death/Vermont, FRA (‘FRA’, meaning “The Failed Republic Of America”)

Before the Midwest chain Fleet Farm sold out, they had military surplus, Mosins, WASRs, spam can ammo, etc. The Century stuff would typically be competitive with dealer pricing because, FF got distributor pricing from Century and passed on the savings. Anyway, FF also had private label Adams Arms rifles under the brands Huldra and Korstog. When FF went Fudd, they cut prices on the AA stuff until it all sold. I have a 16" piston 5.45 that I don't shoot much anymore but was great when ammo was cheap. My Korstog pinned-and-welded 14.5" DI with Samson rail is one of my favorite ARs.

Ah, fellow autist, I salute your build. I too have built this exact gun. . . kinda. For the Adams arms piston systems, you got to HOG the gas port out; in the rifle length and my 20 inch iirc it was just over max recommended size for DI. Not recommended for future DI use of that barrel post porting. If you want to commit, make a sacrifice of metal to the numbered bit set. Had no idea Adams went under?! bummer. Guess that's what you get when your line of work is solving problems no one has. . . .

I'm still waiting for you and James to do a competition where you both start with a basic PSA AR (typical mid-length or carbine set up) and then build each other the worst gun possible from actual real firearms components (no airsoft stuff). Then run a shooting competition using the awful guns produced by the other presenter. I'm talking the worst stock, worst pistol grip (think: skeletonized red aluminum, etc.) , worst trigger (heaviest, grittiest you can find), worst charging handle, worst and heaviest optic mounts, terrible irons, obnoxious muzzle brakes, insulting furniture, painful vertical foregrips, childish slings and the cheapest questionable AR magazines you can find... Then, of course, auction them off for charity or something afterwards. But show up, sight-unseen and then swap guns. Let's do it.

As someone that has an adams arms piston kit on a rifle, I can say that those first gen style gas blocks are under gassed. The newer style that doesnt come out the front that easily (and by that I mean I accidentally jettisoned the gas key out of the front due to it being in-between two settings, had to get a new one). The newer style will more reliably cycle higher pressured rounds.

Sure, but that's not really the point of MRE's etc. MRE's are specifically for when you don't have time or access to cook (you often don't want to produce a heat signature or a smoke signal while cooking, nor do you want to leave visible evidence you were somewhere (firepit, etc.). While I'm not particularly accomplished...I enjoy cooking, but that doesn't translate to sitting in a muddy hole, ripping open a bag of pre-processed chow that I can scarf down in the dark, etc. Now, I do agree that if you have time/convenience to cook...some dudes are really good at making an MRE into something better with a bit of seasoning and work...but that'd a bit of a luxury in most cases.

Secondarily, Hop said something about the rail on the gas block being useless due to heat. Is there any decent way to mount a sighting system such as a LAM directly to the barrel so that a plastic hand guard becomes viable or am I doomed to aluminum conformity?

If you have a proper government profile barrel with the correct heat shield handguards (i.e. the proper hole spacing) you can use a barrel clamp mount. There was an old one for the PAQ4 and PEQ2, and there are some newer ones made by GG&G that just have pic rails.

That thing certainly has a vibe of all time. I mean I actually like the way it looks a lot. I had the same experience with an Adam Arms system on a friend of mines AR. His was carbine length and it still behaved oddly. External pistons are inherently over gassed, that's why LMT and others use short dwell times on their piston uppers. So I honestly would have thought it would have functioned more ideally in that configuration. I think something is up with the Adam's Arms system, its like it vents too much gas or just leaks profusely.
@thefrugalgunfighter6772
@thefrugalgunfighter6772 Ай бұрын
Adams arms piston kits leak a lot, most are under gassed as all of the barrels are ported for the more efficient piston impingement inherent to the ar15. This can run reliably without suppression but you have to hog the gas port out to At minimum .125 which is massive when other rifle length GP are .095-.097. w/ most dissipators at .110-.115

Back in 2014ish, I bought an Adams Arms CORE upper. It was a pencil weight 16.5in barrel with a rifle length gas system. It took a lot of work and a few years to get it to run reliably without a suppressor. With a suppressor the barrel was so weak that it would noticeably bounce after every shot. Eventually I swapped to an 18in barrel and now it runs great, but is also too heavy and still it great with accuracy. It also came with a Samson handguard that used their own proprietary mounting system. The handguard was cut to go around the obnoxiously large gas block so the gas block had to be removed to get the handguard off. They were also ambitious putting a pic rail on the top of the gas block, I definitely melted an mbus front sight just to see if it would. I still have the rifle because I can’t in good faith give that burden to someone else.

@@Hoplopfheil true, as we all know 1.5 inches makes all the difference. at least it having the permanent a2 flash hider has prevented me from putting a can on it without paying someone to fix that for me.

Probably the best of the Canadian AR-180 variants has a full length, multi-piece rifle length piston, the Sterling R18. The carbine length pistons on the other variants have been known to snap at a few hundred rounds.

So what happens is a company will contract their website and seo out to a third party or hire in house web devs and the devs will constantly rebuild the site so they can justify their pay check. Many company's have had what I call the golden site. A perfect website but then their devs make another crappier one just so they can collect their check.

The rifle length MOE handguard has a certain aesthetic to it that's very appealing to me, didn't prevent me from going back to a free-float mwi handguard after a year or so

I would probably do this with an 18" rifle gas setup personally, and that might fix the issue? The Superlative Arms setup also has way more adjustability, though that doesn't matter as much if wide open still isn't enough gas. It looks great with OD magpul furniture though 😅😅.
