Just curious why this thread is so light on cans. Lots of nice rifles but relatively few with cans. A can is the best part of the gun!!

A lot of folks are drawn to clone the Mk 12 in the first place because it's more exotic than an M16 or M4 but doesn't necessarily require NFA involvement. I, like you, think the can is a must, but you can technically clone it to spec and not get the can. Other clones require NFA or pinning requirements to look the part. I suspect that many gravitate toward the Mk 12 to avoid these complications. Admittedly, the Mk 12, even without the can, is a significant challenge. I know I committed to my Mk 12 build before I tried an M4A1 or CQBR clone. However, I finished those and am now still working on the Mk 12

Makes sense. But jeez...suppressor ownership is easy now. That's the beauty of it! I know I'm working on a 16" Mk12-ish SPR that will have a DD RIS II rail in FDE and a Specwar 7.62 can. In the end, I think it'll look pretty close to a Mk12. I already have a Mk18 Mod 0, a CQBR, and a MK18 RIS II FSP rail that needs a host.

How will it be close if you use a Daniel Defense RIS II rail in FDE and 16" barrel? You can't just use any rail when it is the rail that makes it a Mk12. And a 16" barrel? And a specwar 7.62 can? |

We'll see how it turns out. There are some things I am willing to compromise on and others I am not. For example, quality is something I don't plan on compromising on. Things like the exact hand guard, scope, and suppressor I am willing to change if it better served my purposes. The OPS can is a decent can but is limited in its use due to the mount. A similarly sized can that can be moved around between platforms will suit me much better. Like I said, we'll see how it turns out in the end. 
On another note, how are y'all liking the second focal plane scopes on these rigs? Just about everyone is telling me to go first focal plane in this day and age. Vortex even makes a 2.5-10x32 that looks VERY similar to the Leupold Mark 4 but is FFP and mil/mil. |

Vortex even makes a 2.5-10x32 that looks VERY similar to the Leupold Mark 4 but is FFP and mil/mil. Personally, I think 1st focal plane is nice, but I honestly don't think it's that big of a deal on a scope that maxes out at 10X on a DMR type rifle like the MK12. When you get into competitive shooting and you're shooting precision guns with ammo that can really go the distance, then 1st focal plane is pretty much a necessity - much more practical. Not that I would turn down a 1st focal plane scope for a MK12 rifle, but a 2nd focal plane scope is plenty effective. |

Back on mk 12 subject. Do any of you who have suppressors clean them with clip or whatever. I'm sure it has been covered somewhere but I am asking again Instead of looking thru 1200+ pages for an answer. Thanks

That Brownells kit is only the guts of the A1 stock, it says ' receiver extension. buffer, buffer spring, and upper screw'. That doesn' t include the stock body itself, the buttplate, buttplate door assembly, sling swivel, or swivel screw. The only thing different than an A2 stock setup is the upper screw is shorter on the A1 stock and there is no spacer on the A1, well the swivel screw is longer too. Swivel is the same as an A2 . Atleast that's how it reads to me. I could be wrong, but I don't think I am.

It is well understood by many who frequent this forum that the mk12 is (arguably) outdated, and there may be new options that will better fill certain builds/systems. However, those in this thread have committed (with much less deviation than you plan on your build) to the clone.
That being said, 2.5-10x32ffp vortex's are very good, but they most certainly do not look like the mk4. Just do your thing man, build what you want, nothing wrong with that. edited to remove redundancies |

Group from the vid clip. Shot 5 but only 4 holes are in the picture. The 5th one was a flier and the hole is about 1.5" away at 10 o'clock.. http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/1024x768q90/923/loiUk3.jpg This is gonna sound fruity but, that sweat shirt is badass!

How much? lol It is quite simple and takes 2 hours. I would be willing to do them as long as i got a picture of them before being sent to me so i can see what version they are. PM me. It wont be much at all. I enjoy doing these and have the next 8 weeks to do some if needed. |

Well done. Things improve here I'd love to get you to do a set for my faux Gen I. The only thing original on it is the wheeled FSB, yet everything else is or will be spec. Go figure.
I don't intend to post this iteration of the rifle to this thread going forward given my intentional deviations from spec, but here is a shot for the sake of comparison. No light here today, so excuse the flash.
