Good choice. I ran the TA01NSN on my Block II and my Block 1 CQBR, just couldn't get myself to like not having the illuminated chevron/reticle.

Block 1 really is an awesome setup. First rifle I ever built was a KISS B1. I sold it and went on to build a couple recce style rifles and a some lightweights but I never enjoyed them as much as the Block 1. So I figured it was time get one again.

3. ???? 4. Profit! That's such a disgustingly ableist thing to say. How about you stop and think about elbow-disabled Americans before you say hateful things on the internet? But seriously, though, the short handguard does get annoying sometimes. I've got a small hand stop to hook my pointer finger on, which helps some without me having to put a donkey dick on the bottom of my gun. |

Which reminds me...do most folks have to cut the bayonet lug off their FSB's to use a can on a 10.5? It looks like cans such as the SiCo ones come back over the mount further and might interfere. |

I'm not sure bro. I'm only familiar with what the military does. Which they use the Surefire SOCOM and KAC NT4 on their CQBR's, neither of which interferes with the bayo lug thankfully.

What sort of accuracy are you guys getting out of your Block 1/1.5's @ 100 yards...
SOCOM profile barrels, non magnified optic, using m193 or m855??? Also... Any pics through an EOTech, both with and without a 3x magnifier? Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |

Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile I got about 3 MOA with my BCM SOCOM on my Block 1 About 4 MOA with a different BCM SOCOM on my first block II Switched to a Colt SOCOM that shoots around 2 MOA with generic bulk 5.56. I'm going to shoot it for groups again here shortly with my Mk262 Mod 1, but I can say with complete confidence that my Colt SOCOM barrel groups tighter than either of my BCM SOCOM bbl's did. On a block 1 and block 2 |

LMT 10.5s were purchased in small numbers (by mil) so it's hard to call it incorrect, but it's definitely not AS correct as a 10.3 Which sucks for us.

What do I do, Timbo? Rip apart the CQBR for super quick block 1 14.5 action or slowly collect the parts for another separate upper? Mo gunz = mo betta.
ETA: see? Stick said the same thing. Zzactly!! No point is losing money swapping parts around. Wait, plot, scheme, sleep, and wait. Like my old Sensei used to say, the time to strike is when the opportunity presents itself. In ARFCOM speak, that means wait, then buy and when the time is right. |

You think you got a great deal because you traded four times to get the thing that you wanted in the first place, only to find that once you factor in all the shipping costs, you didn't get that much of a deal at all. I stopped charging PayPal fees on the EE because I found that too many people would rather drive to the post office, pay $1.00 for an MO, and wait for two weeks for their item to ship than pay $0.37 in PayPal fees.
I aint got time for that shit, I'll eat the fees and haz my money, and ship the next time I have a free moment to get to the PO.

But I heard you can't get those rails on an HBAR. Anyways... I'm probably wrong. I just thought there was a tiny bit of a taper towards the rear, and I can't see it. That thing is beautiful though. Good shooting slowkota, where's the 5th shot though? |

Wait a minute, how come I can't ever understand what you're saying stick? As my mother would say, I think you have communication issues.
I was too tired to make sense of it last night, but if I was to rip my CQBR apart and put my SOCOM in it, I literally wouldn't have spent a single dime.... If I buy one....I spend a bunch..... Your theory is shot Mr. |
