Dream Rifle Build Series - Rosco, BCM & SilencerCo

- Опубліковано 27 сер 2024
- This week, on the Dream Rifle Build Series, I have got a barrel, along with muzzle device, gas block and gas tube. These are the last parts that are needed to make the gun into a working rifle. I still need to get the muzzle device pinned and welded to get the barrel to the legal 16" minimum length, but that will happen very soon and then we will hit the range and see how she shoots. Let me know what barrel you would use on your dream build in the Comments and don't forget to Subscribe!

You can install it if you take the upper off the lower…and also, a build like this deserved a better barrel, something like criterion or a Chf barrel…
I get that, but I've been really happy with this barrel. It's gassed really well and is every bit as accurate as I can be.
Fantastic!
Thanks!
The name Vltor is pronounced with a U and not a V. Latin “Ultor” meaning Avenger. A cool little nugget my friend.
Good to know. I thought the same thing, at first, but then I always heard people pronounce it with a V, so I figured I must have been saying it wrong.
ATF rogue, ruthless, corrupt powers that be!
Exactly!
Gotta go with that Purebred line for a dream rifle!
Is that the better barrel? Maybe that's what I should have gone with...
@@sawtoothtactical404 it's technically a "step up" from the bloodline series. I've only ever used the K9 personally.
@@whiteyshark5826how do these compare to the dd mark 12 barrel?
Proprietary Blend of Stainless Steel, Cold Hammer Forged, 1:7 Twist, 18" MK12 Profile, DLC Finished, and HP/MPI Tested
what part of that description is the important part, that defines a high quality barrel vs regular one. 😁
I've also got a ddm4 v7 pro,, it's slightly different from the mark 12... but idk what the difference is
@@adamhearts9195 I am no expert in metal/barrel composition, but the stats on the DD Mk12 barrel is what I use for a "long" range 556 rifle. Being CHF, it should last longer than a normal SS barrel(like the Rosco Purebred) and the DLC should also help last longer. The Rosco Bloodline is 4150 CMV, which from how they are marketed, should last longer than SS barrels. Not sure how much life SS barrels gain with the addition of DLC coatings or being cold hammer forged.
Compare wise, I would put the Purebred 18" against the DD Mk12 barrel in any accuracy competition.
Best part of the description, imo, is the CHF.
The v7 Pro barrel is more of a hard use barrel and in theory, should last longer than any of the previously mentioned barrels. As it is chrome lined, CHF and made of Chrome Moly Vanadium Steel(the 4150 CMV is the same style, but not sure what CMV DD uses).
To put it in the terms that I understand, the mk12 barrel is what I would use for a precision rifle while the v7 Pro barrel is what I would use in a "hard use" rifle.
But I am just an internet taught gun guy, always ask questions to anyone who says that product A is best.
@@whiteyshark5826 Humm, thank you for typing out that detailed response.
It kind of seems like describe the differences between all of these barrels mainly is the life term of them.
They're all going to get the job done, and it would take a professional shooter to differentiate the small nuances between each Barrel..
I looked up the bloodline and it was only 150 bucks to Daniel Defense was about 320,, and the only noticeable difference might be his light fan but with a replacement barrel on the costing under $200 that might be negligible for nine out of ten AR users.
It seems like a lot of these differences might be marketing like I said and only a professional could differentiate the nuances between each manufacturer... they are all going to get you down range and on target consistently and reliably
I think you would have done better with the ballistic advantage barrel
Maybe so. I guess I'll see. I have a Rosco barrel in my .300 Blackout build and it's been great!
@@sawtoothtactical404 the bigger difference between roscow and ballistic advantage that I've seen is ballistic advantage pins their gas blocks which I guess is personal preference
Fyi, my armorer is a Ballistic Advantage dealer and informed me that Aero makes BA's barrels.
@@sawtoothtactical404 I was under the impression it was the other way around. Aero doesn't pin the gas block where as BA does
"I can't install the barrel in the rifle because I really like being a free man" yup sounds like freedom to me. Let infringement ring!
Yeah. I agree with you on that. Like I said, if it wasn't on UA-cam...
@@sawtoothtactical404 😉
I’m up in Canada and they allow us 30 days before having to register. I’m guessing that is to make sure everything works before registration. Do you guys have something like that down there? Like can you put it all together and go try it before having to pin and weld?
No, we have nothing like that in America. If we even have the parts near each other, they would try to charge us with attempt. I mean if we literally have an upper with a short barrel near a complete lower with a stock they will try to put us in jail for 10 years if they can
They make things as complicated and ambiguous as possible, so that it's hard to keep up with what's legal and what's not. That way, they can get you even when you think you're following the law.
@@sawtoothtactical404 it’s crazy that you have the atf making rules that affect literally millions upon millions of people and it’s not open to debate. They did that here with the hand gun freeze and are being taken to court. I’m really hoping after the next election we can move to the simple classification where guns are classed by the power they produce and not because it’s scary looking to some politicians.
I also use SilencerCo ASR and love it, I have it on all my rifles. The SiCo ASR flash hider is a great addition, however I chose to use the Lantac Dragon ASR for all my rifles. Works awesome and looks great too.
I thought about going with the Lantac Dragon for this one... Maybe, once I get a suppressor that mounts to this, I'll put Lantac Dragon ASR mounts on my other 5.56 guns so that I can use the same can on all of them.
That's a solid build and will run forever. Great stuff
Thank you! I'm really happy with it, so far. I'm going to get it out to the range this weekend to see how it shoots.
ASR has a lot of problems
The SOLGW NOX based for the Keymo is far superior.
Also flash hiders cause more errosion on supressors than brakes. Brakes act as a sacrificial baffle prolonging the life of the blast chamber on your supressor.
Well, dang. I had a hard time deciding what to go with, but a lot of people recommended the ASR system, so I finally had to make a decision and went with it. Hopefully, I don't have any issues...
Hopefully, everything works out. Just pay attention to the locking ASR hub mount.
Great series
Thanks! I'm glad you like it.
I haven't used it yet since my build isn't complete....but I picked up surefire's new MF640dft pro light. I also paired it with the DS00 tailcap and a modbutton lite. Decent lumens at 700 with 18650 and 600 lumens with CR123, but it has 100k candela with 18650 and 90k with CR123!!! Also being duel fuel it runs off of 1 18650 batter OR 2 CR123 batteries. Which for me I like because my EOTECH EXPS3-0 also runs off of CR123 batteries. So I don't have to keep a bunch of different batteries on hand.
I know Arisaka/modlite make some awesome buildable setups, but after watching many comparison videos on YT I felt that this was the better light setup for me personally.
They also make it in a 340 body and is like 1.1 inches shorter and takes 1 18350 battery or 1 CR123 battery. With that you get 650 lumens with 18350 and 95k candela, or 350 lumens with 55k candela from the CR123. Since they are both the same price 😅 the performance of the 640dft pro was the obvious choice for a fighting rifle. On a 300blk or PCC the 340dft pro or other Arisaka/modlite might make more sense for better use of space.
I've been looking seriously at the new Surefire lights, actually. Mr. Guns & Gear recently did a video about them and they look very promising. I've got a lot of stuff that uses CR123 batteries, so that would be convenient, but it's nice to have all the power with the 18650, too.
@@sawtoothtactical404 understandable even though we're only talking a difference of 5k candela and 100 lumens. Maybe keep the 18650 in it and CR123s as backups.
I just run streamlight on all of my builds. They’re excellent. I understand you’re trying to keep all of the parts expensive to suit the theme of the rest of the rifle, but surefire lights are criminally overpriced. You pay 400 for the light and then they don’t even send you a working light. You have to buy the tail cap separate for like $150. That’s retarded. Cloud defense has a case because they at least are innovative and send you the entire light.
Yep. I know exactly what you mean. I have four Streamlights and they've been great! I just feel like this rifle deserves something more "mid-tier". Honestly, partially just for the aesthetic, but also to have something high quality and reliable.
So its a cool looking build I like it a lot. But why in the world would you not use the geissele pinned gas block and enhanced barrel nut that comes with the handguards??? Farrrr superior!
I'm using the barrel nut that comes with the handguard. It doesn't come with a gas block. Their bomb-proof gas block is great, but I've never had any problems with regular gas blocks or any BCM products, and you need to drill the barrel for the Geissele pinned gas block. I think it'll be just fine, but I guess we'll see.
I didn’t know about that tuning ring with the 3 prong. Good to know! I have a surefire brake, almost zero rise but holy fuck is it obnoxiously loud and the concussion is just, extra to say the least hah. Might change to 3 prong down the road but I do like your build a lot! Coming along great buddy
Thanks! I've got brakes on some of my other guns and they're awesome at controlling recoil, but that concussion is wild!
Cloud defensive has a cool light in odgreen
BCM I don’t think has their hands stop in odgreen for mlok. Might need to check on that?
What type of sling are you gonna run?
And when are you gonna take out the 300blk out and shoot it suppressed?
I'll check out the green Cloud Defensive light. Thanks! I already ordered an Emissary Handbrake, so no need for an OD Green BCM grip. I haven't decided on a sling, yet. Gotta do some more research first. I'm planning to take the .300 Blackout out tomorrow ago run some Supers and Subs through it and see how it does. I'll definitely fill it and post a video next week.
Just take the stock off for now bro … i guess
I think that does cover it, actually, or maybe just don't put the upper on the lower until it's pinned and welded...
The brace ban will get shut down! 🎉
I think you're right. I sure hope so!
@sawtoothtactical404 I can't change mine....the gun feels perfect with my paracord looped through the brace. It makes a loop that I pinch in my armpit when shooting. After you have something like that...there is no going back! If they uphold this ban, my braced MK18 will go to an underground bunker/shelter...so the ATF better start digging if they want to find it.
Gosh that thing is sexy!
Thanks! I agree.
