I thought the Costa's included the thicker Magpul bumper. |

I have a NOOB question is there anything different about the costa other than color and roll mark. I'm curious

Beginning to set 376 up ...... ACOG eye relief is perfect for me there. Waiting on a Scout small mount, some black troy sights, sling, and I need to find my Surefire light / laser switch. The ACOG is a TA31 (RSR) green horseshoe. I need to adjust a lever. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v600/jj762c/laruecosta011_zps55a5ff09.jpg ...on a Multicam Tropic background. I have a 14.5" TOBR 556 too (and love it) and compared with the Costa Hybrid, the Hybrid is the perfect setup. PUL-Lease make these in a basic black. View Quote Nice setup! -Rambob |

The Costa has a shorter PredatAR handguard which makes it a bit lighter than a 14.5" tOBR 556. I never have taken the time to compare the barrel profiles though. |

I'm curious View Quote pinywoods, The Costa is a cross between a OBR (heavy barrel) and PredatAR (light chassis). The PredatOBR was originally thought to be the same cross (minus the FDE color and Costa markings). However, during PredatOBR development, it morphed a little (ok a lot) into what it is today (one NICE rifle with interchangeable barrels, or Sparrels as we have come to know them)! -Rambob |

I'd like to see a non-shooting replica of this with a wall mount. This thing is a work of art.

This is my last day of work this year and I will be headed back to my home in the beautiful Texas Hill Country. I have three rifles to sight in when I get home! Once I shoot the Costa, I'm sure I will understand what I have in my hand. Now if I could get the tOBR 7.62 16" that is in queue and in gun room, my collection will be ALMOST complete, LOL. It will never be complete... I have an addiction! -Tony Marek |

Jesus christ, you don't fuck around do you? Actually most of that stuff has been sitting around since I missed the second and third rounds of Costas. Got the DBAL before a price increase, two price increases ago and the ACOG was a limited run so I had to snag it while available. All patiently waiting for this rifle. There's even about 5 FDE Magpul Gen 1 20 rd mags in there too. Somewhere I have ten GI mags cerrakoted in FDE. They will turn up one of these days. |

I'd kill for a DBAL, but it would really only be for looks as I have no NVG or plans for them. I did enjoy using the one I was issued while I was in Afg though |
