    Just a quick note on that Brownells RAS. Technically, it was not made by P&S. It was made by Prudent American Technologies, which acquired P&S at some point. PAT declared bankruptcy in October 2023, which is why the Brownells listings for the M4 and M5 RAS were taken down.
    For cloners, it's back to the dark ages of buying old, salty, beat up KAC RAS off of GunBroker or GAFS.

    You’ll have fun with the rifle gas system.
    I’ve built a barrel with all the way down to 15” with a rifle length system and it shoots Russian steel case ammo fine, I just opened the gas port to the same diameter as the tube.
    Have fun Brother.

    M16A5 was the designation for a failed 20” m16 with A5 buffer system and carbine stock. This is where vltor got the idea for the A5 system and why it’s called this. In fact SOLGW and VLTOR got together to make an M16A5 for sale

      Yes, I believe I watched your video about the A5 or you stated it in one. The M-16 had many iterations and I figured I’d make an A5 style modern dissipator.

    I've been running a faux Dissipator from PSA for over a decade, I like the look. I purchased items to build my own unfortunately this parts are in storage. I plan on seeing if I can get Anderson Manufacturing to send me one of theirs. I believe they are great to introduce new shooters to the AR that don't have an interest in looking for a lot of accessories. Soft shooting with fixed sights, add a white light and a sling, you have a complete set up.

    Was out shooting my retro (faux)Dissy build over the weekend. Been thinking about picking up the Brownells barrel for another build or to swap out the barrel in the current build. Was hitting steel with irons at like 60 yards on Saturday with ease so it's hard to argue with that.
    Yea it sucks those rails went away...had thought of picking one up, but missed out. Anyways, awesome stuff brother! Hope you have a great week.

    I’ve got a Dissipator build also and it’s amazing. Soft shooting and still a short-ish 16” barrel. Mine has been reliable and no dwell time issues.
    Sandman K is pretty bad though. It’s okayish on my .308 AR.

    As a fellow left handed shooter, why do you drop the bolt on your reloads with your right hand? The fastest reloads for lefties is with the trigger finger of the left hand..... Also, why are you using a right handed upper, especially while suppressed? Your face being that close to the ejection port is a good way to fast track yourself to a cancer diagnosis.
