Pardon my ignorance but am I correct in thinking that if an AR upper has a sight attached and sighted. That once removed swapped for another and then replaced said rifle would still be sighted and accurate?

Generally, from what I understand, no. Rails are bad like that.
But even if the answer was yes, you should always make sure your rifle is sighted properly.

No, you'll have to re-zero the sight.

The fact it is a K2 and not an AR variant is usually what prevents that from happening. Post-ban DR200s can be set up with AR buffer tube adapters, though, like mine is. Quad-rails also exist, but they look a fair bit different than anything you'd see on an AR.


I mean like taking the K2 operating system and placing it in an AR-15 receiver, similar to the G36 -> HK416

It will stay zeroed because the optic is attached to the upper and the barrel is contained solely within the upper receiver. If you're swapping the optic itself, yes: you'll lose a zero. If you're swapping entire upper receiver assemblies, though, the uppers will maintain their zeros since the optics are not being moved on them. However, just be sure your optic is mounted to the receiver rail itself and not a handguard rail (those can lose zero).

that's what I was going for. I'm thinking of 5.56x45 piston, 5.56x45 M16A4,clone
And .300 blk and yes I am planning on going through the hassle of getting the receiver registered as a "machinegun"

I could get you a NERF optic for about three dollars.
2mm peep sight on a plastic slider. Completely useless but if you paint it black you can call your rifle "tactical".

You'd expect that they would get a better rifle.

Not that I want them to get a better rifle, as Napoleon said (I think) never interrupt your enemy while he makes a mistake.

I'd like to post a little friendly reminder that this isn't a "chat thread" or a "what optic should I buy for my RL gun" thread.
Just a heads up, I suffer from [insert stereotypical internet illness here], and will use it as an excuse instead of taking responsibility for my actions.

Anyway, I figured that I could retool the naval infantry and rename the branch so it sounds less...something.
