[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Parts and accessories you use on all your ARs?

Posted: 7/22/2008 6:59:00 AM EDT

Are there any certain parts or accessories that you use on all of you AR-15s?

For me it's Hogue grips-I've tried several but keep coming back to the Hogue.

M4 stocks-again I've tried several but for versatility, simplicity, and light weight they work as good as anything for me.

YHM Phantom 5C2-great flash suppression, closed bottom, great for muzzle strikes, and less than $25.

Olyimpic Arms X-Ring-I switched out all my standard crane O-rings for these. They do the same thing but are "springier."

I am spoiled by the ambi-saftey , all of mine have it now.

I have standardized all my ARs with YHM flip up sights w/trijicon inserts too.

edited to add MIADs also

all have larue mounts, i think that is really the only universal thing i have going on between them.

One is pimped out all magpul, another all viltor/tango down

third one is bone stock.

Ambi safeties (my wife and I are both left handed) and MIAD's (except on my grandfather's SP1, of course).

Us too. I have Bushmaster, DPMS and RRA ambis on my assorted ARs, so brand doesn't matter that much to me.

Me too. Unless I'm going for an as-issued look on a retro or Israeli clone. If I could afford it, all my ARs would have an RRA NM trigger too.

Mil-spec receiver extensions and KAC rail covers are about all they share.

Magpul enhanced trigger guard

Rock River Star Safety Selector

CAA G27 pistol grip

Damn, just picked up another rifle, gotta go out and get these 3 items to make it "right"

The only thing I "have" to have is the Magpul enhanced trigger guard. Other than that they differ.

Tango Down grips, magpul trigger guards and swan 40L

Hogue grips. All my carbines also get 5C2's.
