BT 99 AR
Hello all, I decided a few weeks ago going through the process of a custom stock or hoping a PFS would work wasn’t worth it. For a while now I’ve been trying to get my O/U to work for me instead of working against me. Thanks to Gipson Quality Firearms in Sparta Illinois, I’m the proud owner of a 32” BT99 AR. I’ve owned a 34” before but was convinced I needed an O/U. Now I know, if it’s singles or caps, I’m sticking with a BT. Some day I will get a doubles gun but I’ll know ahead of time it’ll be much more of an investment than an off the shelf BB gun.
I finished league night this week with a 47. Haven’t seen those numbers in over a year. If anyone out there is hesitant about the BT99 AR models, don’t be. The fact you can have a 60%-90% gun with the same sight picture for under $2500. It’s well worth the price.

Another great gun by Browning... I had one of the older BT99ARs... loved it, but had a chance for a smoking deal for a new BT 99 Max, basically a fancy 99AR.. so I sold it to a friend who had been nagging me for it. I can shoot it as good as my 725 unsingle.. makes for a great back up.... as well as my number 1 sometimes. I find when I get a little out of sorts, I pick it up and find my mojo real quick.

Good idea, I have a Gracoil LOP adjuster and recoil reducer I considered putting on it. With it as short as it’ll go I’ll gain about 3/8 LOP vs factory. It’s a touch short as it stands, plus the bonus recoil reduction. Tom Larkin will be at the Illinois state shoot, think I might stop in to see him.

Mine is getting better as it gets broken in. Now I will say because of the rib I don’t seat the forearm by gripping over the barrel. I grab the sides of the barrel and seat it that way.

Run of the mill or not it’s pretty hard to beat at BT 99 for your everyday trap shooter. I shoot with guys who can easily afford a P or K gun but still prefer a 99 for singles and caps.

Glad you found your perfect gun. I've never shot one of the AR designs, but they look great.

Thank you, they feel and shoot different than a standard BT.
