- In this video Jason talks about the new Frogman Tactical Battle Rifle, the components, and why he chose those components for this rifle build. Don't forget to leave in the comments your thoughts on how far Jason will be able to push this rifle out to consistently.
Can you guess what trigger Jason put into this rifle?
Have a great day and God bless,

I'm not a kid anymore at 62 but your a hero to me in every aspect thanks for your service and thanks for your information
I truly appreciate that. Thank you.
Have a great night and God bless.
Love learning from guys who actually know the platform. My AR builds are budget friendly, but I always consider bang for buck (pun intended) when building. Most importantly, what’s my POU for each specific build.
Thank you for your service shipmate!
I was a grunt in the marine corps, I never put cover on my muzzle or used the dust cover other than using it for inspection arms while drilling.. don’t use forward assist. I’ve put gazillion rounds through m16a1s and a2s they take punishment and keep on running.. lot of specialist online saying a piston ar is better than a gas tube system.. they think since they play call of duty and think they know everything.. we used to shoot iron sight on our m16a1s at 500 yards and get center mass bullseyes.. 👍😊🇺🇸
Thank you for your Service Sir! I was USN. Now I am just a permanently disabled Veteran because of the fusion in my spine and SI joints.
The ☣️💉in 1991 is what has caused the fusion! And the VA called me asking me to come in for the current experimental! Nope not happening!
lots changed since then bud
Classic boomer
Prior marine here, and maybe a HOG too, most marines suck at weapons handling and especially marksmanship. With rifle and pistols… but generic regurgitated training results in a lack of growth in skills. A lot of rounds through the M16A4, M4A1, HK416, and the M110, they will run and run and run as long as you keep them well lubricated. Forward assist, never needed to use it. 300 meters is a pretty close shot in my book. Takes very little effort to hit people at 300. Especially with a red dot or any magnified optic. With a precision rifle that is .5 MOA capable, headshots at 500 yards are boring easy and repeatable. (When you arent being shot at of course).

Thank you for your service!
You sir remind me of several men who influenced me when I was growing up! One was a neighbor who was in the Army. He was a very good shot to say the least! Another neighbor got the Navy in my bloodstream! He was also a very good shot and taught me a lot of stuff! Both of these men served in the mid and late 1960’s. There was also a teacher in middle school who had a certain way about him that had served in the Marines. He was my middle school coach and he earned my respect! First thought I had to earn all of these men’s respect!
I grew up hunting and shooting. After I came home from the Navy I had to give up the hunting because of my lower back pain and right knee pain. I had gave up a lot after I was involuntary medically discharged from the Navy. Now it’s all I can do to sit up on my on and stand on my own. The first few steps are the worst!
I am not complaining about what happened to me! I knew I wrote a blank check for everything up to including my life when I took that second OATH! What bothers me is the price my family has had to pay and continues to pay for my decision.
Mom told me to beware of what I wished for! She was oh so right!
I am a much better person because of my service in the Navy! My wife asked where her husband had gone when I came home? Where was the man she fell in love with? He is still inside of me! Yes I changed that much! It doesn’t matter what I did nor what anyone else does in the services! We all served our Country! That is all that matters!
I was a grunt with 3/8 Lima company which is now deactivated. I carried the SAW for my first 14 months there, then was promoted to team leader and carried an A-2 with a M-203 attached and never had an issue with iron sights and was a 4th award expert. I loved my M-16A2, but I love the new AR’s these days. Semper Fi!
I had no idea he is your son. He has been a blessing to fellowship with. You’ve raised him well 👏👏👏“Train up a child in the way he should go, Even when he is old he will not depart from it.”

Thank you. Yes he is a handful but a great young man.
Have a great day and God bless.
The way you describe the platform couldn't be any better. You being Humble describing what you like compare to what other people like is a true gun guy. Keep the videos coming.
Thank you for the words.
Have a great week and God bless.
"If it looks stupid, but it works, it's not stupid."
(I didn't invent this saying, but I wish I had-- lol)
My martial arts instructor told us, "Efficiency is anything that works."
Being left handed, your set up makes sense to me. Efficient.
Thanks.
Very true.
Have a great day and God bless.
@@frogmantactical I forgot the range component to your question. I was re-watching this video because I always pick up more info the second, third... time around. Since the Marine Corps Rifle Pistol Team has men shooting to 850 meters with irons, I'm thinking that with your setup, you could do that easily. The question is the effectiveness of the round for the type of target at that distance. Regardless, unless I was in a Buffalo, I wouldn't want you to shoot at me at that distance. Besides, you might cheat and pull out a Lapua or something. :)))
God bless, Jason. Thanks for all you've done for us and all you continue to do.
You are hero to me and I can’t thank you enough for serving this great country with courage and fortitude! You are a legend in my book.
Thank you for the kind words.
Have a great day and God bless.
What a world we live in that great man such as yourself can speak directly to us.
This is my first time hearing of you but I have subscribed to both your UA-cam and Insta and plan on following you closely sir.
I am so awestruck that we can Get advice and insight straight from men such as yourself.
Thanks so much for making all your content, stay safe!!! 🙏🏻👍🏻🇺🇸🔥
Humbling. Truly. 🙏.
Just found your channel and I'm really glad I did. You teach the way I learn. There's a handful of men who's opinions and teaching I value highly. You, Shawn Ryan, John Lovell, Karl Ericsson and Travis Kennedy. You guys have all been there and done that so what you teach comes from real world experience. Thank you for sharing it with us and most importantly, thank you for your tremendous service to our great country.
Thank you for all the great videos frogman.im healing up from covid .got home after 50 days in hospital and rehab.
Mr. Pike, thank you for explaining your rifle build and setup. As a retired Texas Trooper I am always looking to learn as much as possible to keep me, my family and innocent third parties safe from criminal threats. Much respect for you my brother in Christ!!
500 yards with a 10.5 inch barrel is wild.. you must be proud watching your son do that.
Thanks for being real about your setup brother. As a 50 yo retired army ranger it’s nice to know what someone else is running these days. I’m not an LVPO fan, but maybe I need to give it another chance. I really do appreciate how you explain everything, and why it works for you. God bless.
Great video. Your explanation of left handed safety manipulation to sights on target was excellent. We could all use those types of explanations through the entire process. Right and left handed. True instruction instead of promoting an olight flash sale. Great video 👍👍
Thank you for the kind words.
Have a great night and God bless.
Just found this channel and when he said “as a lefty” I instantly subbed. Gotta follow my fellow lefties out there. Someone who knows my struggle in a right handed world
Indeed so. Follow my Instagram page where I do discuss left hand operations as well. Frogman_Tactical
Have a great day and God bless
I just did the same thing lol
I'm a lefty who shoots right handed - right eye dominant, left handed, things get really weird, really quick lol
I am an idiot... that is all ..... lol
I'm a lefty, but luckily I'm right eye dominant so I'm forced to get good with my right hand.
Before everyone in Texas starts making, or buying their own suppressor's make sure you read though the bill. It will have to be made in Texas, certain materials will have to be made in Texas, & engraved "Made in Texas." You will also have to somewhat get it approved by the attorney general. There are a couple of videos discussing the actual details. The paperwork is supposed to be a way of covering your ass. Hopefully, more suppressor companies will be moving here, or starting up before September. Either way God bless Governor Abbott, all of those that helped him, & God bless TEXAS !
Thank you for the information.
Be blessed.
I hope it actually becomes a thing. My fear is the first guinea pig to do it will get sued and lose. Using a lathe to machine the parts, the lathe parts weren't all made in Texas, or the metals to make the parts to assemble the lathe weren't sourced in Texas. I feel like you can see where I'm going. We all know how truly deep the left can go with stupid.
@@fnxtugboat3541 yeah, I see exactly what your saying. Have had the same thoughts.
ATF sent a beech letter too FFL concerning the federal laws
@@fnxtugboat3541 "Your ore was not entirely mined from a hole in Texas, 3.4 NW nautical miles of Dallas, under a full moon, in the Calendar of the Rat, while overlooked by the constellation of Orion, nor mined by the Seventh Son of a living relative of a Founding Father.

THEREFORE, you are hereby a felon.
And...We shot your dog..."
it's true, most folks can't hit 300m targets consistently that's why the Drill Sgt told us to use those 4 rounds to hit closer targets and still Qual Expert
i was in the Army in 91 and able to hit 300m target consistently with an old, broke dick, wobbly, M16 A1 with iron sights
@Reichsfuhrer John Smith can confirm marines destroy any target told to at any distance.
Finally! Gun videos by an actual Special Operator, not some 'gamer' with paper opponents. Keep 'em coming, sir... thank you for your sevice.
Great video. Awesome how you explain every part related to your experience and background and then translating it into an average users usage
new to the channel! loving the content bro! thank you for your service
Thanks for the great info. As soon as I can I will be ordering a Law Folder for my AR pistol.
To answer your challenge about the trigger, based on the visible trigger shoe, I'd say it's a Geissele. Knowing you want to push out to longer distance, that helps narrow the options. I'd assume due the tactical nature of the secondary optic, you wouldn't select a straight match trigger. So my official guess is the Geissele SSA or SSA-E trigger. Was I close? lol
To echo others, it's great to see another post, I always enjoy your videos based on your solid experience and knowledge.
I have a question..kinda new to the AR platform..was wandering..why do most warriors like yourself not run more linear compensators?..is it because of the flash hiding effect of the type of muzzle device you run...or is their something I'm not understanding that is bad about a linear compensator?...Thanks for any imput
I just got finished building myself the poor version of this rifle and I hadn't seen this video before. I shoot rifle left. sidearm right, so all of my ARs have identical controls set up with a Bravo Company ambi charging handle, Colt ambi safety lever (from Arms Unlimited), and an Arms Unlimited ambi magazine release. This longer range build sports a 1-6x FFP Primary Arms scope and a Magpul bipod. My normal carry is a 10.5" with a Primary Arms 2x prism scope. Now back to watching the rest of this awesome video! Carry on.
Outstanding. Sounds like a great setup. Let me know how it works for you.
Have a great night and God bless.
Hell yeah God, bless the great state of Texas can't wait until September
Indeed so.
Nice set up Jayson really cool put a ALG defense combat trigger in that bad boy
As an army ranger it would be your ass if you didn’t have a dust cover. It’s weightless yet provides great security against crud of any form getting into the most important parts of your gun. Friends, use your dust cover. Why not have a forward assist. It’s great to have that function to drive that bolt home in a tactical or non tactical environment after checking to see if there is a round in the chamber. Weightless.
If I was doing that type of stuff again without a doubt. For what I do now I don’t need it.
Be blessed.
Good video. Solid information. My current is the lwrc di. Vortex 1-8, and sog Romeo 5 on 45 degree arisaka mount. 45 degree radian weapons selector switch, mag pul moe stock and geissele ssa. LWRC makes a very nice rifle. Very light at 16" with the fluted barrel. Thanks for the video. God bless
Thank you. LWRC is one of my favorites. Very nice for sure.
Have a great day and God bless.
Just a suggestion if you're looking for an alternate mount for your RDS, and since it looks like you're using an ADM Recon scope mount, look into the Valhalla Tactical Hanger Offset mount, replaces one of the ADM clamshells with a 45 degree offset mount built in. Plates for all the different mounting footprints, and should work just fine on the left side. And it's less than $70 shipped with your mounting plate of choice. Only caveat is due to the way it mounts, when you zero the RDS, your L/R becomes U/D, and U/D becomes L/R, no hill for a climber.
Disclaimer, I'm just a consumer, not affiliated with Valhalla, but I've been running one of the Aero version hangers on a .308 build, pairs an RMR and a Primary Arms GLx 4-16x50 FFP scope and I'm very happy with how it works and is holding up. You also have the option to run a riser to get the glass clear of the turret, I use a 10mm Reptilia, and it's still more streamlined than a pic rail mounted offset. A riser would solve your turret problem with your existing setup too, for that matter.

If you want a little more clearance for your red dot, might I suggest the TRex Arms offset mount. It has an extra mounting plate to get it out of the way of your main optic better.
I’ve heard good things about those. I may check it out. Thank you.

I really like the USO LPVO scopes. I opted for the TS 1-6 FFP on my 7.62 gasser. I also went with Steiner P4Xi for the 5.56 DMR. At 1x the illuminated center dot is as crisp as the dot on my Aimpoint comp 4.

Im no Operator, LEO. On my 516 piston AR, my personal exp shooting 200 rounds of steel cased training ive had to use my foward assist a few times. I like it on there, & florida has lots on sand everywhere. Longest under 200yrds... GOD BLESS!
Purchase SEAL 1 lube paste.
Put your ammo in an ammo can. Take a dime size amount in your hand and rub it into your steel casing.
Wipe any excess off. It’ll resolve those issues. Steel has a lacquer finish that melts onto the barrel and begins to stick.
Have a great day and God bless.

Glad to see you posting again, hope all is well
Thanks for sharing, it’s a great video about AR. Congrats and stay safe.
Lefty Back Ups can be tricky. I went with ultradyne c4 mounted at 90 degrees on one platform. Hit 8" at 150. Those sights are nice, if you see the target through the front you're hitting it.
You said it perfectly. These guys want the battle worn without actual battle. LOL.

It’s not bad right?!
Have a great day and God bless.
Drink every time he says "platform"
Good information. Surprised that you didn’t focus on your barrel choice and trigger when talking about a platform like this versus something like a safety.
Yes, that was one thing I forgot to cover in the video. The trigger also. 🤦♂️
It’s a Wilson Combat 14.5” chrome lined, fluted, 1-7 twist.
Have a great night and God bless.
I have the Arisaka RDS offset mount. It allows the RDS to be mounted at a45 or 35 degree offset, RLTW.
Im really old school. Carring since early 70's and 20 in barrel was standard. My current ar-15 is LMT Carbine 16 in barrel. Putting together a complete upper with 20 in barrel. Why you might ask. Im hitting 65 and cant run worth a shit. Im either going to be wall positioned for security or rear guard while group un asses the area and not expected to catch up. 🤔 must be sure the group has time to really get away. I figure to reach out and force the bad guys to be under fire as long as possible. Like your thought process on a weapon built for your needs. JMHO
Everyone has their speciality based on skillset or inability. Just be good at what you specialize in.
Have a great night and God bless.
The is a Magpul UBR Gen 1 stock in the video but there is a Gen 2 and I run one on my 14.5” and it’s a great and comfortable stock that comes with its own proprietary buffer tube FYI. It is a Gen 1 in the video and is obvious by the cheek riser and type of QD plate at base of stock by the receiver
You know that stuff better than me. I’m more like, it works, it feels good. I want it. 😂
🙏
@@frogmantactical only reason I know is because my buddy has the same one you have and he can change the height of the cheek comb by taking a few screws out and buying the “new” ones where as for me the Gen 2 is a little slimmer overall and you can’t change the comb height. And the QD plate is side saddled for the Gen 1 instead of facing the receiver on the Gen 2
Yes I believe where I’m shooting here in Florida is 63 yards stag, arms 556 with Leupold scope that says 223 Remington 55 grain 3100 fps
I’m not sure if you mentioned the barrel length was just curious on that. as always great videos!
Thank you. I actually overlooked the barrel somehow. It is a match grade, 14.5” pinned and welded Wilson Combat, 1-7 twist, straight fluted, chrome lined.
Have a great night and God bless.

In your opinion, would it be beneficial for me to ditch the 12" quad rail on my 14.5" rifle w/ red dot for an m-lok rail?
Thank you for the videos, they're all very informative, especially for someone like me who is a relatively new gun owner. Really learned from the pistol oscillation one today too.
Preference. I don’t care which it is. I look for diameter. The idea is to lower the profile of the rifle so as you add to it, light, laser, etc, it will remain streamline as possible.
🙏
@@frogmantactical thanks for the feedback. All the best.
I’m going to guess before watching this.
Longer barrel and a further magnified optic than your standard acog.
Point: 850m max effective. 400-600 best engagement distance.
300m bullseyes all day.
I hear your logic.. but what didn’t hear 👂 is what you gain from not having a dust cover or a forward assist.. but do you! Thanks for the video
It’s not about gaining anything. There’s simply no need for it for what this rifle will ever see.
What would I be gaining with it based on that? Nothing. Therefore it’s 100% irrelevant.
From that, its merely a justification to have one. If I lived in a city, worked in an office, didn’t camp, or go off-road for any reason, It’s like saying I will never use a 4x4 truck for the lifestyle I live but I’m going to go ahead and get one.
There is truly no benefit, just my justification of why I need something without being realistic.
Have a great night and God bless.
Fine work
Thank you.
Have a great day and God bless.
I'm a lefty as well but can do most things with either hand but writing so I just found it easier to shoot with right hand but can accurately engage with either
Is there a negative to a dust cover or forward assist? I understand it's not needed much, but is it harmful in anyway? Besides alittle weight.
No. It’s a good thing to have. This rifle will never be in water or mud or anything of that nature so there’s no use for it. With that being said it’s my only rifle without it.
FAB T-Pod G2 is a pretty nice foregrip bipod
It appears to be.
Have a great night and God bless.
Congratulation for your videos, I am learning a lot. Please, could you take some comments about grip angle? I saw yours is at about 55 degres angle, is it uncomfortable for patrol or CQB? Thanks in advanced.
I watch your videos for one reason no BS.
Woooooooweww it’s an ar just kidding I love the candle wax Message that’s awesome never heard of it
Man this channel is raw. Lol
800 yards effectively........🤝🏾🇺🇸💪🏾
I would assume 600 yards with 77 grain bullets would be good. You would probably know better than me if up to 800 yards is practicle, accuracywould be good, due to build quality, but down range ballistics may be iffy. Thanks for your service to our country, and I thoroughly enjoy your videos.
Respecfully,

Out Stand Video Thanks Your Service To Are Freedom
im left eye dominant, the only thing i do left handed is shoot long guns. ambi = essential
You can correct that if you don’t have a true medical condition. There is a video a few back that covers how to do this.
Have a great night and God bless.
God bless brother.
Thank you for your service. I love the content. How come you use the 20 moa mount, and would you recommend that on a 16" 308 with a 1-10 LPVO?
Thank you. Most scopes have a recommended MOA mount which allows the reticles to match or be close.
Choose your optic and then research which mount they recommend as far as MOA.
Be blessed.
Looks nice but that vertical grip so far away from the end of the barrel is a huge no no for me based off leverage. We all have used a break bar to get a nut off right. To much barrel weight uncontrolled. With love.
I have no experience I listen to everything team guys or special forces guys say , there the best at what they do so that’s who I want to learn from , I’m a new shooter , I run a .300 blkout with a 8.5 in barrel for home defense
I dont know about other average shooters but,, I'm novice at best and 300 yards on a quality optic is easy for me.
My AR10, in the right hands is well over a 1200 meter rifle. Well beyond my skill. I had to put nice everything in it. My ar15 has a value Burris fixed x3 prism on it. Again 300 is nothing. I can mag dump on a 6 inch plate at 100.
Once a rifle is broke in with a good site that holds zero... its pretty easy. Gotta have a good barrel. I wish I could use regular reflex sites. I have a pretty bad estigmatism. X1 prisms are my favorite to get the reflex style eye relief. It's still not quite the same but it works.
I agree. I’ve taken out of the box 10.5” bipolymer AR’s out to 640 yards in the prone with a $200 Vortex Sparc red dot.
Unless you are talking precision, it all falls in the shooter for the most part.
I like those optics. It’s hard to choose an optic. So many options that are useful. This is my first LPVO and I find it harder to work with but doable with some practice.
Have a great day and God bless.
Or instead of a Magnifyer you could just go with a LPVO? Like a 1-6 or maybe a 1-8, a 1-10 might be a bit too much but there variables you have to take into consideration.
if you didnt want a forward assist why didnt you get a an smooth side upper ? with the button missing on the forward assist it looks muggy
Just seeing this video for the first time. What are the chances of the remaining Frogman Tactical rifles being available for sale?
when and where are you selling the pistols? I went to your website but didn't see any for sale.
We are building them now. Parts are short supply so it is taking longer than normal. I will post when they are ready.
Rah! My eyes suck too. I've come to like the 45 degree offset red dot with a LPVO...
Ya it happens fast lol.
Have a great night and God bless.
Wax on the bolt 🤔not hating or doubting but a video of how you guys did that would be cool . Not saying we/ I need such a technique but I'm not tracking 100 percent
Add wax on the outside of the bolt/upper with the bolt closed, so it prevents sand/dirt/mud from entering the bolt/chamber area.
When/if you fire the first round, the bolt moves backwards and the wax breaks off.
Even with a dust cover this is used by some.
No need to do a video on a 1 minute tip.
Have a great night and God bless.
Love the rifle and your real world in site. Don't really understand why you wouldn't have the forward assist if it has a spot for it. My thought is it could be helpful so why not have it. I personally never had the opportunity to have a secondary in the service so I couldn't rely on that ( definitely not an operator). But I did have to use my forward assist in a messed up situation, so I was glad I had it. Would love to hear more reasoning on this. Maybe it could be another video. Thank you for your service and sacrifice for our country.
It's a very small set of trade-offs in either case. I'll remind you that Stoner, the designer of the AR, said they were useless and only added originally to army-spec ar's because they were used to being able to slam the bolt home. Stoner asserted that if racking the bolt was not enough to seat the cartridge, that forcing it would do more hard than good, and that the user should instead check the gun. But I usually hear it boiled down to these 3 arguments these days:
1. Weight (yeah there's expensive lightweight ones at a cost and/or durability tax, but the extra meat on the forging is still there)
2. Gets hung up (yeah there are low-profile ones no bigger than your deflector)
3. Extra thing to break (yeah, never heard of one failing either)
But the minimum you need to get the job done is often the best. If you bring your rifle to point 100x a day, the oz start to add up, and I'd bet being a lefty makes it less intuitive to use as rarely as it is needed. You can just use your thumb on the bolt to seat any well-made cartridge if you're being super tacti-cool stealth. Suuuure, if it's hot from sustained fire, use a non-poly glove or any handy implement that won't melt, but why ya trying to be stealth after sustained fire? Anyway, I have an FA, but have never needed it.
@nobodynoone2500 Well, I'm not humping it 20 miles anymore, so I rather have it than not. My rifle at the time was basically a bolt gun which was my fault but during the invasion that early on we didn't have the dry lubes. It would cycle but it would not go fully back into battery. But when rounds are coming in you got to do something. So pushing that little button was a big deal for me. I would definitely be able to live without it now my rifles are clean and lubed and live in a clean house.
wish there was a little more lighting on the tool your talking about. Love your vids man. Thank you
I know I'm old, but did I miss the caliber, barrel length, etc?
No, I missed it completely somehow 😂. 14.5” Wilson Combat, Chrome Lined, 1/7 twist, .223 Wylde.
Be blessed.
Thanks for your lead tips previously, as a lefty shooter do you know if there are health concerns from the Gas ( I think you said it's carbon) shooting out of the ejection port when you shoot? That's gotta be bad to breathe in right? then there's suppressed that really sucks
You’re welcome. That’s actually a really good topic. As you said, obviously, the gas is toxic to the body but I’ve been doing it for 21 years and I’m still healthy as can be.
The body is an amazing thing.
Have a great night and God bless.
@@frogmantactical Nice thanks again, God bless
