Very nice rifle! That wood stock is a beauty and I'm a little jealous of the deal you got on that.

Muzzle Brake?

Suppressor mount?

Dang great deal you got, OP! Seeing yours reminded me that I have the GI cleaning kit in the stock and it sure did add some weight to it, haha.

When I read the post title, I thought, 'I've seen this documentary film.' Was initially disappointed, but on further reflection, this is pretty awesome, too. Good find, OP.

Nice. I’ve shot quite a few rifles with the Bassett mount and they work well.  Talked with Bren Bassett after her dad died and she’s been dedicated to continuing production. I believe a relative is machining them.

I like 'em in the Standard length, but that looks good. Grain pattern is enticing, too. Nice score.

I just installed one in my scout squad but haven’t got to shoot it yet. I can tell you mine was waaayyy over gassed with cheap 308 ammo. I also put an arms mount on mine and love how low it sits.

That's a great deal.  I'd have gotten it too.

You got a screaming deal on that rifle.
I've looked at a couple of optics on mine. On my Tanker I have an ARMS 18 with an RMR on it, which I like the best. I did have an MRO on my SOCOM for a little while and it worked well, but I switched that out for an ACOG when I put the VLTOR IMS and rail on it. I also used the Basset mount like you have to mount the MRO.
The MRDS sights seem to work well with the forward mount, you just need to be mindful of cooking the optic depending on if you keep the factory mount or go with the GG&G for forward mounting. Cogburn makes a good base that replaces your rear sight assembly, as does M14.CA. The Sage stripper clip rail is a low pro way to mount an MRDS without giving up your rear sight.

With a Scout you shouldn't need a new lock, so I don't know why that would a suggestion.

May not be worn, might just be a shorter spring.
Minimum acceptable length on the GI spring is 15” so see how the one that came in it compares.
ETA: I measured a Tubbs spring and a Fulton spring, and they were both 15 1/2” and the spring in my recent production Tanker was 16” with no wear on it.

The UltiMak and M14.CA rails are pretty simple and good by all reports. The VLTOR is a little more involved.
Also, if you haven’t picked up your adjustable gas plug Fulton just started to sell a version. Look on their page under parts. It’s new, I don’t have any info on it other than that.
