What a weekend at Charlotte Motor Speedway. With the Blue Cross NC 300 now in the books, we’re proud to have joined our sister company, Dirty Bird Industries, on the NASCAR stage. Myatt Snider drove the Dirty Bird Guns & Ammo No. 91 Chevrolet for DGM Racing, with AR15Discounts branding riding alongside Dirty Bird’s black-and-yellow […]
ATF published new guidance on October 9, 2026, explaining how its current enforcement policy affects suppressors, short-barreled rifles (SBRs), short-barreled shotguns (SBSs), and “any other weapons” (AOWs). We’ve rewritten all 24 questions from ATF’s official NFA transfer FAQs in plain language below. This summary reflects ATF’s guidance as reviewed on October 12, 2026. The NFA […]
A Centurion Arms suppressor is a fairly new idea from a company known for hammer-forged barrels, MK12 builds, and hard-use rifles. The Maximus line, led by the Inconel Maximus-L, is the result, and it does not try to win on sound numbers alone. Monty LeClair, the retired Navy SEAL who owns Centurion Arms, designed it […]
NFA registration is no longer required for suppressors, short-barreled rifles, short-barreled shotguns, or “any other weapons,” effective October 9, 2026. That is the core of ATF’s open letter, signed by Director Robert Cekada today and issued with a companion FAQ. The policy applies nationwide, not just to the plaintiffs who won in court this summer. […]

Shopping for AR-15 kits gets confusing faster than it should. A rifle kit, upper build kit, lower parts kit, lower build kit, builder set, and receiver set can all sound like slightly different versions of the same thing, but they are really intended for builders starting at very different points. Buy the wrong category and […]
A muzzle brake does not have to be the newest, most expensive, or most recognizable device on the end of an AR to make a noticeable difference. In fact, some of the more interesting muzzle brakes on the market tend to get overlooked because they are competing against a handful of products that have dominated […]
A good complete upper can change the direction of an AR-15 build faster than almost any other major component. Instead of choosing a barrel, gas block, handguard, upper receiver, muzzle device, bolt carrier group, and charging handle separately, a quality complete upper gives the shooter a system that has already been assembled around parts intended […]
The stock sits at the back of the rifle, but it has a bigger influence on how an AR-15 feels than its location might suggest. It determines where the rifle meets your shoulder, how easily your eye finds the optic, how much room you have behind the receiver, and whether the rifle feels balanced or […]
For years, AR-15 barrel length was discussed mostly in terms of velocity, maneuverability, and legal classification. A 16-inch barrel was the easy civilian standard, a 14.5 offered a shorter carbine feel when configured correctly, and the 10.3- to 12.5-inch range was where shooters went when compactness mattered enough to accept the tradeoffs that came with […]
