450b AR Style Rifle Picture Thread.

It's sticky enough when you put it on but you can lift it and reposition it as much as you want to. You use a hair dryer to soften it a bit for final fit and that activates the adhesive also. If you go on the site I linked, check out the installation videos. It was a pain getting it to lay flat with all the lumps and bumps on the receiver but I just took my time.They say you can remove it at any time with no adhesive left behind and the edges seem to really be on there at least for now. I'll let you guys know how it holds up during hunting season.
Yeah, I like how compact the scope is for the AR. So far it's holding up to the 450 fine, I know Barska has the reputation for being a cheap scope. I'll let y'all know how it holds up as well .

Hi all. I'm new here to the forum. I found this sight a couple of months ago while looking up info on the .450 but was unable to register. Dont know why, but anyway I was able to now. I have finished my build with the exception of a quality scope( one with more than an inch of eye relief)(suggestions?) So this is a DPMS lower and DPMS lower parts. 20" upper assy., front faux gas block remover and bushmaster folding sight added. still havent even had the chance to fire it. Just thought i would share and join in on some of the conversations.

I've already changed it up. I had this AAA black walnut set on my S&W M&P15. thought it would look good. I like it.

hows that wood stock doing? ive thought about making a more "normal" type of hunting rifle on the AR frame. For some reason i just cant get the thought of a broken off pistol grip or stock out of my mind... i know it wont break under normal use, but for some reason when i look at an AR platform and i see wood... i think its going to break. Just doesnt look right i guess. I'll most likely go with a laminated stock, prob gray and white for a winter look.

I don't have one, but I can't think of ANY reason a laminate would not hold up. It would actually look pretty good.

I know, its funny... I KNOW in my mind that it will hold up and not be a problem, but i just cant shake that feeling...

i just need to suck it up and order a set for my build project. I'm going to put a couple stripped lowers on order a few weeks before i head back to the states for vacation next june... i should just get the laminated stock and forend now so its waiting for me when i get there.

Well, I like the all natural wood. It's strong and looks good to me. I think a gun (any gun should be made of wood and steel.) Thats just me though. i've got enough Tupperware in the kitchen.

I bagged my first wild boar with the Barska scope, but the next ones will (hopefully) succumb to this new night vision setup:

I would be a little worried about eye-relief with this setup? The mounting throws the scope back onto the stock. Is it adjustable to move forward a bit?

[DFWDave]

It does look like a problem, and I was concerned about it myself. However, you actually put your eye against the rubber "boot", so you don't have the usually required inches of air gap, and so it actually fit me quite easily. Now, the question is going to be whether I "shoot my eye out" with that recoil. There is a lot of accordion effect in the rubber boot, but I won't be telling my mother what I plan to do.
