If you are building a new rifle .223 wylde is preferred but you don't exactly *need* to upgrade all of your barrels

All my rifles that shoot 223/556 are stamped on the barrel with 5.56 even if the reciever says 223

Which the rumour is our government is hesitant to allow rifles with 556 stamped on the reciever to be non restricted. All the Tavors I have handled say 223 on the reciever but have 556 on the barrel

I'm just curious to see how much it can improve accuracy

Hell my HK SL8-4 has 223 rem on the reciever but 556 on the barrel also lol

5.56 and 223 have different sized chamberings. The 223 chamber has a shorter distance before it engages rifling, and when you fire the higher pressured 5.56 through it, it can create dangerous pressure spikes. On the other hand, firing 223 out of a 5.56 chamber, which it's not designed for, means that the round has to travel further before engaging rifling, it causes diminished accuracy. The point of a 223 wylde chamber is that it's somewhere between these two chambers, being long enough not to cause pressure issues with 5.56, but short enough to still be accurate when shooting the cheaper 223 cartridges.

Yeah I get that I'm just curious now how much can it improve accuracy

I know the whole dont fire 556 in a 223 only gun

IWI says the Tavor is designed for 556 and they just stamp 223 on the reciever to make it easier to export

It's not so much that 223 wylde improves accuracy, but firing 223 through a 556 chambering reduces accuracy

I just wanna know why so many competition barrels are made in 223 wylde

For the exact reasons allready mentioned

Many people who do competition go through tons of ammo, and 223 is cheaper than 5.56, so it adds up after a few thousand rounds

So it's just cheapening practice for them

Does anyone know where I can get an M70 MLOK lower Handguard?

This what you're looking for?

Midwest industries makes mlok for practically everything

Not a flame thrower

Patriot Prodder?

Yeah but I'm looking for JUST the lower Handguard. I've found one but they're $100

idk if it's any good but

Yeah that's the exact one but it was on Khyber

Out of stock or else I would've snatched it up for $85.99

Whoaaaah. I just learned about kiln guns. They're giant mounted shotguns used to blast buildup off of kilns

Modern ones are 8 gauge but there's ones as big as 3 bore

Yeah, Industrial Shotguns, I want one mounted on an armored truck

Made a thing focusing on realistic first line gear

Graphics are good. Advice is solid, although basic

I didn't want to clutter it. It's more directed towards people who think they're gonna kit out all the time, and certainly doesn't have everything I carry, or what someone else should carry.
In facebook, I had a more detailed post about how mission drives gear, this is first line, and most people's mission is to get home alive.

I think that is something good for now, people don't have FLIR stuff and don't want to stick out with hawaiian

Second line would be PC and rifle + other stuff

It's simple but effective imo

Intentionally simple

Also working on a meme one

To be fair, that is significantly less stuff than my everyday carry, but I’m very on board with the plainclothes offensive pistol man

It's pretty much my edc minus wallet, phone, keys, knife, trauma shears, pen, and occasionally some other stuff

My view on the whole grey man versus tactical argument is both are valid things but only function in certain settings. If I knew i was walking into a potential fight I'd go tactical. If I'm just trying to get from A to B and not expecting a fight and not wanting to draw attention while doing it then its grey man
