No. You know, you really should try to get over yourself though. I love confrontation in person, but you seem to love it on the internet. It's sort of mind boggling how 99 percent of your posts are either confrontational or argumentative. |

Besides, if you cut your 10.5 to 10.3 you're gonna lose like 3,000zorz fps, bro.
Dontcha know that's what all the 10.5 fans say.  Hey earlier today we saw a pic of a 10.5 in the wild so doesn't that make it "legit" huh huh...........I mean I just got another 10.3 but I really want two legit uppers...............hmmmm everyone's with me right I've seen plenty of 10.5" government owned guns. So they're definitely legit as shit, I just don't know that they're technically considered mk 18's Agreed, never seen Mk18 used officially outside the navy...but CQBR does appear throughout the groups training literature.

Clone on tough guy. There aint nothin tough guy about it. Just be real. If you're gonna pretend you wanna step up it should be done in person, not behind a computer screen. If you don't want me to post in this thread that's too fuckin bad tho, I love the mark 18. It's one of my favorite weapons layouts known to man. therefore I will discuss the shit out of it in the mk 18 thread.

So one or both of us should book a flight or hop in a car to meet in person for this discussion?
I'm puzzled how exactly that was your initial reaction and response to someone inquiring about keeping this thread on topic. Please do continue to post away in here. Enjoy yourself by all means. I'll for the first time look into how the filter works on this site. It's a bit time consuming to try and stay current on a thread that can grow 5 pages every day majorily dominated by irrelevant posts from someone who doesn't even personally own the weapon systems being discussed. |

It lives on my CQBR though, as the 231 sucks ass Dang so the secondary market is my only recourse?  What is the acceptability of just using LMT rear site and no optic? Uhhh... bad ass?

Part of Karzai's security detail. Most of these were taken around the time of the attack. If I recall correctly they're all Delta. Some of the first modern CQBRs to show up in pictures I think.

There are hundreds & hundreds more shooters, some with this stock but many without, out there with coyote tan SOPMODS that don't show up here. |

Probably not the most difficult thing to find, but certainly not easy to come across in the gen I tan sopmods based on what I've seen. I guess painting the black ones is the easiest method of making it any color other than black, which is what I was going for when I painted mine. |

I want to build one similar. Hmmm, Colt lower $400 ish. Mine was from a 6920 I registered Colt upper $150 Colt BCG from upper $150 Colt Factory 10.3 barrel from SAW $530 delivered Various Colt upper completion parts $50 or so est. Colt A1 grip $5 bin at LGS Colt H3 buffer $40 Wilcox Aimpoint comp M mount $100 Cut USGI carry handle $25 Aimpoint PRO 2 moa $ 325 Surefire 6P with Malkoff M61 upgrade/FM33 $120 Surefire M10 mount $30 KAC RAS $ 100 with panels and grip SWR Gen2 Specwar suppressor $700 transferred/tax etc. ( Local class III) Gen1 B5 Sopmod stock $50 WWRGD sling retention band $5 VCAS Sling $50 CQD front mount $40 2X Tax stamps Form 1/Form4 $ 400 So $3220 give or take a few bucks. It can be done for less, I dropped alot of coin on that barrel and some small Colt parts in general. It runs fucking awesome though so it's all good. Obviously I'm missing the KAC suppressor ( which I couldn't justify at this point in life ) and the PEQ 2 ( which is pointless at this point with the new civi LA5). And then there is the fun switch ( I'll address that later on right? ) :) The gun is is based loosely on KD's 10.5 (10.3) Death Machine he posted a few years ago. Early Navy Specwar Mk18/CQBR etc. etc.

I taupe/tan SOPMODs are relatively rare on the commercial market, because IIRC, LMT only sold them for a year or two (don't quote me on the exact duration) before switching their commercial sales/production to the Gen. II or "Enhanced" SOPMOD. Meanwhile, military contracts were and are still fulfilled with Gen. Is. ~Augee |

Nothing special about Gen 1 sopmods. LMT still sells them and always has. They are listed in my dealer catalog and I have ordered them as late as last month. Unless something has changed since then.

We are talking commonality of TAN gen 1 SOPMOD's in the marketplace. Not just any gen 1. When I was shopping for my SOPMOD I didn't come across a single Taupe gen 1 LMT. so I ended up going with a B5
