Geissele, $279 - the trigger the AMU is replacing the prematurely worn out KAC triggers with. |

That's a sweet Mod 1 clone, BLCouch. I like that you weren't afraid of the rattlecan, either--nice job. Will |
|
|
I got the fever!!!!
Any pics of an Mk12 SPR with NV scope????? |
|
Damn 280 bucks for trigger....I guess I shouldn't be surprised when I paid 300 bucks for a free float tube huh? Damn. And I still need to buy ammo. Oh-well One thing at a time. Nice pics guys...mine will be up in a few days when I return from sea.

I'd like to know how they are even close? |

CONCEPTUALLY SPEAKING.
FOUR OF FIVE HAVE 18" SPR CONTOUR DOUGLAS BARRELS. THE FIFTH IS A DOUGLAS 16", BECAUSE I RAN OUT OF 18" AND THEY NEEDED FIVE TOTAL CHOP-CHOP. THEY HAVE 12" RAILED FORENDS, THE LARUE 12.0, BETTER THAN USED IN THE MK 12'S, IMO. THEY HAVE BACK-UP IRON SIGHTS, BETTER THAN THOSE USED BY CRANE, IMO, EVEN BACK-UP ELECTRO-OPTICS. PRI GAS BUSTER CHARGING HANDLES AS USED IN THE SPR'S, BUT FITTED BOLTS IN YOUNG MFG HARD CHROMED N/M BOLT CARRIERS, NOT USED M16A1 BOLT CARRIER GROUPS SELECTED RANDOMLY. THEY ALL USE THE LEUPOLD LR/T, AS WAS USED IN EARLY SPR'S, BUT WITH A BETTER MOUNT, THE LARUE SPR. THEY ALL SHOT FAR BETTER THAN THE CRANE MANDATED 3-SHOT 1.25 MOA FOR THE SPR'S. ALL FIVE WENT TO A P.M.C. TO BE USED TO SHOOT PEOPLE WHO NEED SHOOTING. "REAL" SPR'S I FIND RATHER PEDESTRIAN, AT THIS POINT. THERE ARE SIMPLY BETTER CHOICES AVAILABLE NOW FOR MOST COMPONENTS.

THE FIRST PRI VERSION.
GET THIS: ITS DESIGN INFRINGED ON A FRENCH PATENT, THE WAY THE FRONT SIGHT ELEVATION IS CHANGED, SO PRI HAD TO CHANGE THE DESIGN. WES GRANT M.S.T.N. |
|

It was a change for the better, that sight sucked. |

As much as I love living in Utah, I sure do miss the green grass and forests of the Midwest. |

I need help Mod 0 guys.
I'm buying a PRI flip-up front sight. I know I need a .750 sized one. But I forgot. Which is authentic to the Mk12 Mod 0 SPR???? The Set-Screw 6 set screw one ~or~ The Clamp 2 crossbolt one Please help me! Thanks in advance. |
|
Awesome. Thanks. I thought so. I checked a couple of pics of real Mk12's. They all had set screws. The large two crossbolt clamp style is easy to see from the right side. The key bolts are huge. Is it just because the clamp is quicker to put on? Anyone think either is sturdier/better? |
||
|
the set screw is the best, but for most folks the clamp on sight is good enough. |
|||
|
Got it.
Only reason I'm asking is I found a clamp on one for $130.00 in the EE, and all the set-screw ones I have found are $180.00. |

1700
I would guess that's an older pic and the 1720 is relatively new. Plus the 1720 has metal reinforcements at the locking points. Of course, the new 1700 might be reinforced too, but not the last few new ones I looked at. A 1720 may not be authentic, but you would be able to store the rifle assembled in it, versus breaking it down for a 1700. |
|
Wow. I thought that was at least a 1720. I'll go for the 1700 then.
|
|
I'll add to the SPR MK12Mod0 pics plus a few South Texas wild hogs that did not like 77gr SMKs. More details at

Nice pics, must be nice to shoot 300+ without having to thread it through some trees. |

Hey Steve,
Speaking of gas blocks, which one is used on the Mod 1, the Badger Ordnance or Schuster? Both of them claim to be exact copies of the Mod 1 gas block. Justin |
|
they are both copies of the CRANE block. |
|
|
Ed, holy shit. She's a beauty. Is that damn thing finally finished now? |
|
|
You got it, Kemp. And many thanks for the compliments. Actually, I still have to figure out the mounting options for the 9 volt Turbohead Surefire with the OPS and bipod, but I'm sure I can find a setting that works with the LaRue Tactical offset Surefire mount. |

|
|
The haris or versa pod are whats listed in "the black rifle 2" |
|
|
Everything I've seen says that the early Mod 0s had the Versapod with ARMS QD mount (mount now discontinued), and later Mod 0s and Mod 1s had the Harris with that ARMS mount (although you see some KAC bipod mounts and now, LaRues). Almost every real .mil SPR you can find in recent pics of in the GWOT is sporting a Harris. I understand the Versapod is not well-liked (and is made in China)... YMMV. Will |

|
wow nice rifle man. i want one now! |
|
|
Ed, what is it with you and those good-looking builds? Anyway, is that a larue gas block the OPS collar rides right up against? Because that looks pretty sleek, almost one piece. |
