Stick I don't think pictures of ARs get any more high quality. Maybe there is an argument that can be made that your images can be matched with other photographers, but I have yet to see what you can't do with AR pictures. Love my facebook feed of your stuff by the way

I've got a lot of work which is published in catalogs and magazines, but I think it is still highly subjective as to what is a high quality image, and what is not. For me, getting (back) into shooting is a somewhat recent hobby, but photography is something I've been into most of my life. Feel free to critique my website (pjmatthewsimages.com) as you wish. In my opinion, you are both a creative and highly talented photographer. Great photography is many things, but arguably mostly based on the control and use of lighting. Few others (there are a couple) who have posted photos here have used lighting in the way you do. I haven't had a lot of practice shooting my rifles, but you would certainly be the one photog I would emulate when I decide to compose, light, and shoot some for myself! |

The angle and composition are just boring, try to use natures natural contours the rifles straight forms to create composition and depth. |

Just finished my SBR today. Tax Stamp arrived a week ago. She is ready to rock and roll! I am so excited! I am glad to be part of the NFA family now! The craziest thing is that I absolutely hated the wait, but once I got that tax stamp in my hand I wanted more almost immediately... Suppressor next! This is my very first tax stamp so I have been fondling it for the last week....my wife keeps rolling her eyes when she sees me around the house with it (including the john..lol) but I just keep smiling. Here is what I have on the build so far:
Upper: VLTOR MUR-1 w/ assist and deflector Lower: Complete VLTOR VR lower with oversize magazine release Stock: VLTOR Mod Stock (Dark Earth) Pistol Grip: Tango Down Large Battle Grip (Dark Earth) Trigger Guard: Magpul Enhanced Trigger Guard (Dark Earth) Magazines: Magpul P-Mags of course...(Dark Earth) Buffer Tube: VLTOR 5 Position (Numbered in white) Buffer/Spring: Spikes Tactical Heavy Buffer Charging Handle: Bravo Co Gunfighter Large Latch BCG: Spike's Tactical Nickel Boron Bolt Carrier Group Hand Guard: VLTOR CASV-MT Carbine Free Float Hand Guard (Dark Earth) Barrel: Ballistic Advantage LLC.'s 7.5" Stainless Steel and Chrome Lined Muzzle Brake: Juggernaut Tactical Righthand Tactical CQB Brake Gas Block: Sadlak Industried .750 Low Profile Clamp on Gas Block Gas Tube: Spike's Tactical Pistol Length Forward Grip: Surefire Light/Vertical Grip Combo with I.R. Lens Cover (yes that is a hint at whats going on her next week) Selector: Battle Arms B.A.D.A.S.S. ambi selector Optic: EOTech XPS2-0 "CQB" Brownells Edition Reticle w/ QD mount Irons: Dueck Defense Rapid Transition Sights (Could not get a full co-witness with flip up sights, so had to go with the RTS sight) Rail Covers: Magpul XTM Covers (Dark Earth) and Magpul XT Covers (Black) Sling: Magpul MS3 Sling Mounts: One VLTOR QD Mount and One Magpul Rail Mount Attachment So here it is as it sits today. The only change that I may make is the muzzle brake. I have a Noveske KX3 in the mail to be delivered by UPS on Monday. I guess I will try both and see which one I like or my rifle likes and stick with that. I am leaning towards the Juggernaut brake as it really looks nasty on there! Here she is:

Hallstar606,
It only comes on the VLTOR lower receiver. The receiver is actually a little different than most. I don't know if anyone else out there makes em, but as I understand it is proprietary to VLTOR lowers only. |
