Otis Technology:

March 23:  Chad Goeden

The fine folks at Otis Technology have sent over a mountain of rifle maintenance tools and cleaning kits for the AR-15 and AR-10.  We’ve been tasked with giving them away.  Watch for the special posts on Facebook and Instagram to get a chance to win some of the awesome products made by Otis Technology.  We’ll give away a complete MSR Cleaning kit in either 5.56 or 7.62 in the middle of each  month up until Christmas, when we’ll give away a complete Otis Technology Elite Cleaning System to one lucky listener.  During the alternating weeks, we’ll be giving away a host of Otis tools and cleaning supplies.

Feedback:

Shawn, from MO:  When I started building my first AR-15 I listened to all your podcast while at work. It really help me narrow down what I was truly looking for out of rifle I was building. After my rifle was completed I continue to listen about the new products and general vibe of the ar15 community. Thanks and keep up good work.

Jeremy: Great podcast! I’m an avid outdoorsman and use my AR chambered in .223/5.56 to coyote and boar hunt. I’ve lately been interested in getting a 7.62 upper. What would be the best twist barrel for 7.62×39? Also are there any company’s that make parts for 7.62×54? Thanks and keep the podcasts coming!
Chris S: Just listened to episode 117 with 3 gun nation. Great interview. I have a job where I drive a lot and love listening to your podcast. I also follow you on Instagram. Keep it up guys, love the 3 gun interviews. I really would love to get a comp started in east Texas.

Dylan C: I began listening to the AR15 Podcast in the Spring of 2013. I was new to the AR platform at the time, and listening to this show brought me up to speed fast. The hosts deliver a show that is packed with need to know information, and they manage to do it on an even keel. Not too basic, not too stuffy, and never elitist.

When it comes to the AR, there are three things that I look forward to. The UPS truck, a new issue of Recoil, and a new episode of this podcast.  If you’re interested in the platform, and especially if you’re thinking of building your own rifle, or 3, this is the show for you.

@first_ar15_build: got that upper looking 3D in this pic! Go ahead and try and charge it! Lol!!
