ALL BEAUTIFUL SETUPS !!

Being "virgin" to the board, would someone share what the letters RECCE stand for?

Thanks in advance....

It's just short for reconnaissance.

Hokie – Thanks for the explanation, that all makes perfect sense. As you note, each situation is different. Each person needs to evaluate their own needs and intended use and then setup their weapon accordingly. Sounds like you nailed it for your purpose.

(and that 5.56MM TAP is some sweet ammo too! Nice trade. I should have bought more of it when I had the chance )

1962guy - RECCE is slang for Reconnaissance. Basically just another way to refer to a “recon” rifle.

Had this one for awhile now and am tweaking the configuration slightly... considering going from a single-point to a VCAS and adding a can:

Thanks!

I realized that as I was typing up the parts list It's in there though! I'm not much on posing the pictures. That one is just laying on my garage floor. Heck, I'm lucky my feet aren't in the pic.

My scope will be the 2-10 NF
I am also trying to get my hands on either a Colt M4 upper or a Larue Stealth. Cant decide which route yet. I havnt had a real "photoshoot" for it yet so the pics are crappy but they are pics.

Your's sounds like it will end up very similar to the way I hope my (which I am still working on) will end up.

As far as the upper, If you want a Colt M4 receiver and have a C&R license, you can get one from Brownells for about $165. Only problem is the last one I got looked pretty rough. Not a huge deal but if you are interested in another option, DD is making uppers now. They are still milled from forged blanks but I'm thinking (hoping) the QC is a little better then your average CMT upper. Rainier Arms has them for $150 with or without M4 ramps...

A friend of mine with access to the TDP confirms that DD uppers are within the TDP, and CMTs are not always so...

I know....I briefly considered sending my gun to him for some professional photos...

but then realized my wife would NEVER go for it.

I love a rifle that's PURE function... I would have to say that is my favorite rifle I've seen on the board... Hose clamps for light mounts... PRICELESS!

A++ my friend!
