I remember hearing about some Block 2's with FSP rails had their FSB shaved down. Anyone have those pictures?
Would like to see pictures of light's being used besides the WMX200. Any pictures of 14.5" block 2's with risers? I'm sure it's been done, I just love seeing wild pics. I'm currently digging the internet for pics and would love to see what you guys have saved. I'd love to see any pictures anyone has of FSP block 2's in use for some inspiration. Just bought a RIS II FSP, complete upper, and having braceman engrave an 80% for me right now. Basically just need optic and light. Leaning towards red dot and possibly magnifier.. |

Maybe if it was switched around with the lever pointing forward? Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By 762hunter2:

MK18 seems more practical but 14.5 can do everything a 10.3 can. Well except not be M16 like in length with a suppressor. I also just like the way the 14.5 and M855 line up with my ballistic reticle on my ACOG RCO-M150CP. |

I wanted to lighten my SOPMOD up a bit. I originally had an Eotech 556.A65 on it, and I have an Aimpoint Comp M3 2x, but I won a Vortex Viper so I figured I'd try this and I'm really enjoying it. I'm going to take it up to a 600-meter steel range next week and run some 62g and 77g through it.
I have two potentially dig deep questions that I started a thread for and wasn't able to get answered, so help a brother out: 1. The original McFarland one piece gas rings that temporarily replaced the three rings for the SOPMOD program, why did they switch back to Colt's three pieces? Did they modify the milspec rings to make them better and what (if anyone knows) did they do to them to improve them? All I can find is that Colt improved them, with no explanation to detail etc.? 2. Does anyone know why the LMT enhanced bolt that was slated for SOPMOD program seems to have been dropped versus the milspec Colt bolt? TIA - I'm trying to add some more info to my SOPMOD knowledge base... And thanks to Andrew (ANKRATZ) for matching my Colt grip to the DD FDE for the RISII FSP.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By HARMS4X:
I get it, but really the DR was added for CQB situations and most times put them in the window a pull the trigger. I think we as consumers look for the perfect world and in reality it's always a compromise. I had elcan 1-4 and loved it but the eye relief when switched sucked for me and then you still add the RDS to the system. Currently I have an RMR on an ACOG for my M4B2 and I like the setup. I don't like the ACOG eye relief, but that's just a given. The combo works very well for me on a timer or just plinking, so seems like a great way to go if that's what you're looking for. And like you said, a RM-06 is plenty bright. If only we could get some traction on that NF 1-8.......... |
