I did a fresh install with 7, a while after I got the computer. I haven't changed anything with 10. Just been slowly shutting off things. No matter how optimized 10 is, it won't change the fact that audio no longer works through my HDMI, and only 1 of my USB ports is functional. I've tried installing dell's approved drivers, and they get overwritten every time.

 

I was planning on building a mid tower, but I ended up building a gun instead because of my current tech frustrations, haha.

Try a fresh install of windows 10 and let windows install all the drivers through the upfldate utility too. Also when updating through MS click on the update screen then click "Check online for updates from Windows Update". Not sure what it does different than clicking the button but it takes longer and does a better job. Also, what gun did you build?

 

Haha! I'm actually thinking of buying an AR15 instead. I've been wanting one for years now and just haven't gotten one.

 

I'm not sure if I'd get that or not because I'm not paying for it. I'm going to school under the trade act because I lost my job.

I bought my now wife a LWRC DI for christmas/wedding gift. Then used that gun as a reason why we needed a Liberty 35 gun Lincoln safe lol. Plus it also helped that Liberty is increasing prices this year so that was extra incentive too.

I'll try that.

 

The important parts of the gun are:

Faxon 20" flame fluted barrel 5.56 chamber

ALG Defense EMR V1 mlok tube

Timney 3lb modular trigger

Nikon Buckmasters 4-12x40 scope

Nikon M223 one piece mount

Magpul fixed carbine stock

 

Soon I'll have a cheapo TruGlo hologram mounted on an mlok rail (at 45) for closer shots. That way I won't have to mess with the magnification on the scope as much.

PSA (Palmetto State Armory) has a Geissele SSA-E trigger plus 10 PMAG's for $240, sale ends tomorrow. I'm definitely thinking about "pulling the trigger" tonight.

 

EDIT: Jk they're all sold out lol

I'd get it. I have a hard time finding 20's since everyone only buys 30's.

I used to have a couple 10's for distance shooting and sighting in. Well idk what happened to one of them, only got one left lol

 

Gonna wait and see what else they have coming into February. All their Geissele trigger deals are gone, frowny face

What's a good affordable AR-15 that I could buy? Anything under $800?

The Smith and Wesson M&P Sport is pretty nice, can usually pick one up for $650 or less. Depends on how nice you want it to come from the factory. Me personally I don't like anything with the big A2 front sight/ gas block. If you find a gun that you like besides the A2 gas block you can swap it with a low profile gas block or a railed gas block.

 

Or you can build an AR yourself, then it's custom to how you like it

When I bought my wife's LWRC I order one from AVGUNS with the SSA-E trigger for $149. That damn trigger is smooth as butter and only 3.5lbs.

You can get some cheap ones at that price point. Just make sure you do your homework and don't buy a dud. I'd start by looking at Anderson, FN, S&W and Ruger. There's a lot of good articles regarding sub $1k AR's.

I would be fine with a Smith & Wesson. Never owned one of their guns, but I wouldn't be afraid to. As for building my own, I wouldn't even know where to start. Haha!

You can buy a completed lower (part you actually do the background check for) and then buy a completed upper. Put them together, you have a rifle. Or you could buy it piece by piece and build one, which is what I wanna do for my .308 side charging build

 

Smith and Wesson makes a good gun though for the price

Savage just came out with a side charging ar10 that still has the conventional handle and forward advance. Around $2k.

I have to decide what to do with my AR at the end of the year. Sell, make it featureless or make it a fixed mag. I will not register

Where do you go for prices, customization, etc online?
