Uhhh, if they wanted to dress up an AR to look like a P-90, and wanted armor piercing, why not just use a P-90..?
You know, the PDW that inherently HAS armor piercing capability... |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I watched the movie a few days ago and was thinking the same thing. Why even bother sending guys with 5.56 rounds that don't do anything to armored aliens when they obviously needed grenade launchers and 50 cals. to stop them? It seemed like the equivalent of hunting herds of rabid Grizzly Bears with a 22LR. What made me wonder was... Are we still using 5.56 in 2051 ?! Lol. Probably using a "M855A5" cartridge.... |

A .22 plinker with dedicated barrel may make a lot more sense though, may even be worth a stamp if your into that kind of thing

Quote HistoryQuoted: This is. Awesome. Only thing I would add is: "We'll also need a weaponlight" Will it need to take abuse? "Yeah, we are dropping out of the skies and landing on our rifles" OK, I would recommend anything but these plastic WMLs that are known to crack on their own "I like the way they look though" OK |

In fairness, it looks like they switched to Geissele 10.3s or 11.5s at the end when they went into Russia.

My 8 year son and I watched it. I had pointed out to him the stocks and grips they were using. He is a very technical child, and even he pointed out the lack of grenades and such.
The choice of weapons (with unlimited ammo mags) made the movie hard to watch. Where was the Roach?  Why not use more drones and rocket launchers? Land mines? Claymores? Aliens are scared of fire? Why not burn their asses up? The aliens can't fly and have no tech. Humans OWN the sky....freaking use it!!! |

I wasn't impressed by the flick. I did wonder if they saw my build from a few years ago though..... although I didn't use the stock, but did do a 7"handguard on a 7.5"barrel
 I removed the vfg shortly after, it didn't really offer any benefit. |

Dude, even right now you can build an AR for well under $500, its not like he's chopping up a SP1 or a LE-marked 6920. What about the people making almost literally unusable M231 clones, are they "barbieing-up a firearm into a unusable piece of junk" as well? It still shoots a bullet out fast enough to poke a hole in something and it can be aimed. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Thank You. Common sense sinking in... Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Stop. Why would you mess up the ergonomics of a weapon that everyone else tries to copy the manual of arms and ergonomics of? You want a bullpup, get a bullpup. Keep that thumbhole stuff off your AR. Thank You. Common sense sinking in... Fuck that, im building one in 300blk, cause a 8" barrel in 5.56 is just retarded. I was looking up the stock and foregrip as soon as I saw them in the movie, and looked up the gun specs in the movie gun database. I think it would be an excellent candidate for a rare breed trigger as well, since I never saw them shoot semi in the movie. |

Calling Hera ‘airsoft grade’ is an insult to airsoft.
I had the Hera front grip. Didn’t care much for the feel and my aluminum pic rail cut thru the plastic til it cracked after a very short lifespan. I didn’t cry when it wound up in the trash. It did look good with my D60. Some of those ARs from the movie looked like they were sporting Magpul PRS stocks. If you’re gonna clone, I’d grab that instead. And am I the only one who watched that movie and wondered why they went to all that trouble to create a ‘toxin’ only to use it maybe a half dozen times and then kill the other 999 aliens with ‘conventional’ weapons? Shoulda skipped the Time Machine and just bought a Barrett... |

I'm currently building one as a tax stamped 300 Blackout SBR and plan to build a second in 308 Is it awkward to get to the safety in the conventional way - yes Will be an expensive gun to build that I rarely use - yes Is it the rifle most asked about by my friends in my very extensive inventory - YES Here is a link to my build thread https://www.ar15.com/forums/AR-15/Hera-CQR-in-300-Black-Out/121-766493/ Here is a pic of my WIP

Don't think it will be easy to find Hera uses the same numbers for the different generations so retailers don't even know that there us a gen 3 rail in the box that they advertise as a gen 2 Here is a picture that shows that both for reference  |

I never understand why people that have never handled a thing can hate it so much
I'm building one of these and it's a great platform The stock and grip is no better or worse than any polymer furniture The safety is bit awkward but not as bad as some of the factory set ups out there such as the AK and Mossberg shot guns BTW – The drafted soldiers didn’t get a lot of training and carried light arms in the movie because according to the original screen play, 90% of them were injected with toxin that killed the males that ate them, which in turn made them toxic to the males that ate them and so Humans were the first part of a baiting process that failed Eventually this aspect of the story was drop because the suits didn’t like the idea of humans using other humans as bait |

How can you make any sort of argument against this rifle if you never handeled one? You sounded as ill informed as every person that ever said any bull pup sucks, but have never handle or shot one. I like bull pups. They are well balanced. I enjoyed shooting the UK contractor’s Steyr in Afghan. However, the ones pictured were not bull pups. They are SBRs. The one pictured looks like block with poor ergonomics. |

I know the difference between a bull pup and an sbr, I own a few of them, even the ugly and weird models that most people hate  I was just saying you sound just like the people that troll bull pup threads, never held or even seen one but have a fully developed negative opinion of it |

I also remember a time when the majority of the AR community thought AR pistols were stupid
Or when they thought setting up an AR for any caliber other then 5.56 was stupid As I do more reserch about the Hera CQR stock and grip I keep finding simular set ups offered by other companies Who knows, someday there might be a AR-CQR sub forum here |

well, I should have know a thread in ARF would go this way. I haven't given the build any more thought because I had too many other builds going on, but I just about finished them.
Catching up on the thread, the idea of a Tomorrow War pistol caliber clone popped into my head. I still don't know why the CQR stock is so appealing to me? Just the looks, not the practicality. Looks play a role in the reasoning behind damn near all my guns. I don't have many ugly guns... And sometimes a gun will grow on me. I will overlook guns for a long time, then one day they will just appeal to me and I want one. Its part of my sickness I know

I’m the same way, I build the guns I want, not what other people think is acceptable
A long time ago I fell in love with this  I liked the gun but the front melted and it needed updating No one was interested in making any sort of rail kit for it so I made my own  And it ended up looking like this  Not only did my rail improve the looks and eliminate the melting issue, it also made the rifle work better Different isn't always bad |

 Attached FileI did a build with the HERA furniture and I was less than impressed. So, I sold it off to my brother before he had a chance to shoot it  Once you get past the silliness of the Rifle, in the movie setting, it's a pretty cool looking build. If only the HERA products were better, I'd do a clone of it. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: How is any of this tech? Belongs in GD Its a discussion of building an AR.... in the AR Discussion sub forum.... seems like a good fit. Some members in this thread, probably need to remember this isnt GD, and put the purses away. |
