  • YT recently nuked this vid from April 2022 for whatever BS reason, so it's re-uploaded now.
    EDIT 03/06/2023: It seems that YT has reversed the deletion of my previous vid and channel strike. Original video is here: • OG 14.5" FSB Midlength...
    This video evaluates the oldest build in my possession. It is the last of the rifles from my early days into the firearms world. Is it still good? Do I need to change anything?
    Build list:
    Aero Precision M4E1 receivers
    Ballistic Advantage 14.5 Modern Series barrel with FSB
    Surefire Warcomp CTN, UE tailcap

    Commenting to help the algorithm bud!! Curious to see how you like the 5x magnifier vs a 3x. Would love to rummage through your spare parts bins lol.

    • @bunnyoperator
      @bunnyoperator  Před rokem

      Much appreciated. I could use the assistance. IDK what's in those bins. 😅 As for the magnifiers, my preference is the 3X for the wider FOV but the 5X is solid if you want/need the additional mag despite the tighter FOV and eyebox. It does have a little better eye relief as well. Both are good and it's your call. I'd probably go with whichever is on sale or at the better price when you're looking. I definitely wouldn't pay full price for either.

  • @Eric-hx2or
    @Eric-hx2or Před 6 měsíci +1

    Great stuff but I find it interesting that you can't justify the use of a warcomp to mitigate recoil because the AR in 556 doesn't have that much recoil but find the A5 buffer system "softens" recoil.

    • @bunnyoperator
      @bunnyoperator  Před 6 měsíci

      This was an earlier video so my explanation may not have been as refined.
      The warcomp overdrives the muzzle end and provides too much concussion than necessary for a platform that is already minimal in impulse. It is also not the ideal suppressor host compared to other SF devices due to the excess gas and noise that escapes from the lack of labyrinth seals.
      The A5 "smooths" the recoil impulse by allowing the energy to disburse via the longer travel time in addition to the alteration of timing. It doesn't "soften" it like you're alluding. Regardless, depending on your configuration it aids in less overall movement during cycling.

  • @peeeoii2738
    @peeeoii2738 Před 7 měsíci +1

    Yo bunny great looking rifle. I was wondering if you were knowledgeable on what type of front sight base I should get for a 11.5 carbine length gas system with an A1 carry handle upper? I’m seeing a lot of mixed replies on the Internet about f Mark vs non f marked I was wondering if you knew?

    • @bunnyoperator
      @bunnyoperator  Před 7 měsíci

      Fixed carry handles should be paired with non-F marked FSBs. The F marked ones sit a little taller to accommodate the flat top upper receivers. Bear in mind that these were originally intended for 20" rifle variants, and the shorter configs had their own front sight blades to accommodate along with rear aperture depending on specific config.
      You CAN, however, use both FSBs and alter or swap the front sight blade to get the precise zero you want otherwise they get close enough to where it doesn't really matter. On an A2 you also have elevation adjustment in the rear sight to assist. Basically, it doesn't really matter and there are ways around it. LOL

      Not personally but I can see how any extended levers can experience similar situations. If you don't necessarily need the extended lever, say you're a lefty, then the Norgon style ambi release is my next choice.

    Is your centurion barrel really under gassed ? I had my new one out the other day and unsurpressed with a vltor a5h1 and sprinco green it can’t run 55g

    • @bunnyoperator
      @bunnyoperator  Před 3 měsíci +1

      Not at all. It's because you're running the green spring which is more stiff than the standard spring, which I run with A5H2. Swap the spring and maybe the buffer if you want. A5H1 is equiv to H2 buffer weight, so you should be OK. Note that Centurion recommends Sprinco Blue or White or Milspec with H1 for their setups at the baseline.
