It's zeroed at 25 (ish) meters as it sits. Either will be using an ancient leather M1903 or my BFG Vickers, Marine Corps shooting jacket and M855. you must have a 7'3" wing span working that dual switch up there. |

Had some guns come in to get repaired today. Interesting history on the SF ODA that these belong to as they were my son's detachment last month before he stepped down as team sergeant and went to Bragg as a sniper instructor at SWC. We came close to doing another deployment in this country together, other time was way back in 04'. On the 14.5" the barrel was shot out, so rebarreled it and that's the new SOCOM barrel and bolt in the upper.

finally have all the parts for the upper :D one question though...how much of a no-no is it to have a surefire mb556 instead of a sf3p? i have the mb556 on a few other rifles and love its muzzle/recoil control, never shot with a sf3p so im a bit hesitant...

Only two styles of barrels on US DoD M4s, Govt profile (issue date 1994) and SOCOM (issue date around 2001). No, BCGs are the same, SOCOM guns get Bolt Assy. 1005-01-505-1035, these have the updated extractor O rings.

I'm of the mindset that pretty much any company now a days will service a can if the need arose so I don't get caught up in running brakes to preserve baffles. Also brakes are obnoxious to anyone around you and generally frowned upon at classes. |

Lemme ask you guys a question. I've form 1'd my colt M4A1 and I've got a block II upper that's currently pin/weld with a 3 prong SF. I've got a stripper colt upper coming and I'm gonna have the barre cut to 10.3" for a CQBR. Ulimately I wanna suppress it. Part of me wants a block 1 CQBR. Is it kosher to run a KAC can on a block 2 M4A1?

There are a few major versions of the Daniel Defense M4A1 RIS II. Early ones had lightening holes in the front portion of the lower rail and holes under the top rail all the way to the front with a 1.15" hole in the front. Mid ones didn't have the lightening holes in the front portion of the lower rail and one less hole under the top rail. Later ones have a 1.26" hole in the front.
M4A1 RIS IIs made before 2013 were incorrectly threaded .500" x 28 for the M203 sight instead of .500" x 20.

There may be a fourth version now. This picture from Daniel Defense shows the upper rail slots cut a little differently. I haven't seen any like this for sale yet.

There are other small changes to the RIS II.
They were originally made in Savannah, GA and dated. Then they were made in Black Creek, GA and still dated. They are still made in Black Creek, GA, but are not dated. Some RIS IIs do not have the NSN marking. One of my M4A1 RIS IIs is marked only "M4A1 RIS II". 
The lower rail attachment screws were originally gray and are now black. The bolt up screws may have changed to a new style as well. 
I don't know if all of this same variations exist with the black RIS IIs. There is only one version of the GL/SSC, and GL/SSC FSP since they have only been made in prototype or maybe one production run. |

There are a few major versions of the Daniel Defense M4A1 RIS II. Early ones had lightening holes in the front portion of the lower rail and holes under the top rail all the way to the front with a 1.15" hole in the front. Mid ones didn't have the lightening holes in the front portion of the lower rail and one less hole under the top rail. Later ones have a 1.26" hole in the front. http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/kk148/pezboytate/Firearms/DSC_0002.jpg http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/kk148/pezboytate/Firearms/DSC_0004.jpg M4A1 RIS IIs made before 2013 were incorrectly threaded .500" x 28 for the M203 sight instead of .500" x 20. http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/kk148/pezboytate/Firearms/DSC_0007.jpg The very early RISII's lacked the helicoil inserts as well. Here is my Savannah Ga. next to my Black creek showing the older Savannah having a fatter front profile and lacking helicoil inserts for the M203 hangers. I have not weighed the rails but the older ''fatter'' profile would likely weigh a bit more because of the thicker side walls. My Savannah also has a flat anodized finish compared to the fairly glossy Black creek finish. The upper / lower attachment screws are black on my older Savannah rail but have been blued at some point. They may have had a more silver finish originally?
