Slightly off topic, but not really...
So I came across this thread while looking up LMT carbine: http://www.ar15.com/forums/t_3_118/564927_Why_I_like_my_LMT___.html 
This guys carbine is just sexy as shit. I have a bunch of parts laying around that look like hell and would be great for a rattle can build. I want to build this rifle. I might use my spare RO921 barrel, and I got to thinking..."I'm basically building a PR" Difference of course, being, I'm running an LMT rear BUIS as opposed to the KAC BUIS. I'd like it to be an irons gun. Point being... I have an extra Surefire 3P FH I could put it on it so it will run with my SOCOM can (when I finally get around to buying it) (it's getting pinned with something either way). My question is: Do PR rifles use the Surefire FH? Or were most of them using the KAC mount? Thanks |

http://i61.tinypic.com/v618iq.jpg Good deal....if mine doesn't, i know whom to call to borrow one. 
Mine arrives wednesday. I may be selling my 350z tonight, and if i do (and they're still in stock), i may snag one or two more to stash.

How many of you guys use your block ii as your primary AR? I only ask because I have one ar15 and it is in the process of becoming a block ii clone. If it is your primary gun, how does it work for you?

Just wanted to let you guys know that shirt sales will be closing at 5.8.2015 which is Friday of week!
Remember this is your only opportunity to get these before they are gone. Also wanted to let you guys know that the shirts are good to go and orders WILL be filled. Still not at the pre-order number that I had hoped for but as long as I can come out even (money spent on the shirts, gas to drop em off, and U-line packaging) I am happy to send the shirts to everyone who placed an order. 
Grab yours @ critical-precision.net and please share on social media!

I have to admit, though I kind of want to either get a PR upper and put my SU-231 on that and just run my Block II as a Mini Recce like SecretWheelman or split the difference and try to trade my upper for an FSP upper and throw a Magnifer behind the eotech.

Not that anyone cares but I tried to put a BCM MOD 3 on my Colt M4A1 marked lower and I just couldn't like it. I don't know if it was that it felt too wide in my hand as my other one I had was a Mod 1, but I ended up going back to the Colt A2. I just hate that grip angle, makes my wrist hurt!

RB- the Colt A2 grip is unbeatable in the looks department. I've gone through all seen in the wild grips, and use my work as yours. I always came back to the Colt A2. The next best is the Magpul MIAD. |

I've built up a healthy tolerance to wrist injuries due to whacking. If anything that has helped me grip an A2 with less discomfort! :) I LOVE the look of the A2 but I hate that hump. I almost think an A1 might be a solution. Side note, previous to the BCM I exclusively ran MIAD and MOE grips. Actually I always ran MIAD's with the enhanced trigger guard built in piece but then when they stopped making them I switched to MOE's with new builds but then went to BCM's because of the tang that covers the gap. Tell you what I saw that I did like the other day though.... ankratz BLOCK II looks sick with that MOE+ in black.  |

Stripped the bottom rail. Going to do the top as well. Somebody trade me your TA31 for my FDE RIS II, Taupe KAC 99051, and my 553, g-damnit.

Clone Gods be damned; I love MOE+ grips.
Shitty pic, but on the A2 you could try choking up a bit on it. I shoot my A2 clone like this and it actually gives you a pretty solid grip for weapon manipulation:

I have one of their MC grips on the EE right now, was thinking about selling the SOPMOD with it as a package but it's so awesome. Can't bring myself to get rid of it. |

Anyone know of a good Elcan specter dr dealer that offers mil discounts? Heavily considering taking the plunge on an optic that cost more than my gun!
Also, can you guys comment on how tough the eye box is on 1x? I've heard a few grumblings about needing a pretty consistent cheek weld to see through the sight at 1x. My use would be for everything from hd to range use to 3 gun. |
