The A5 system has me VERY intrigued. I have ignored it, intentionally, not wanting to spend any more on these damn things. I may just try one on this next one. Be warned, it's kind of like gieselle triggers, once you try one you'll want them on everything. I have an extra one sitting here, be more than willing to send it to you so you can try it out. they really shine on SBRs.

Decisions, Decisions...I bet on that 10.3, supressed, it would be king ? On a 10" suppressed It is King!! add a LMT Enhanced BCG(the newer ones with added weep hole) and it's Fucking King Kong!!! I believe this is the best "non-adjustable gas block" configurations for that set up, and I've tried a lot. edit: the A5 can and will fix under or over gassed guns, they make a wide range of buffers. not going to turn this thread into an A5 thread, TOS is much more into the A5(and the LMT Enhanced BCG), do some reading there. |

Some guys in the dissipator pic thread were talking about the A5 fixing their undergas issues. I was already planning on using the A5 on my dissy so it was win win for me. Sorry, no help. |

It's not so much that it fixes an undergassed gun, but the A5 system does work across a wider range of variables that can affect operation. It's more tolerant, less finicky. I'd also recommend not tuning the gas down to the edge of operation. In my experience, that is asking for a trouble because it's really easy to have something off enough to cause a malfunction. Of course if it's just a range gun or even a game gun then that isn't such a big deal. On any gun I want to be dependable I won't tune the gas feed down as much as some people do. I thought I had plenty of extra margin on a couple of mine and I had a stoppage on one just because I put a new spring into a mag, and had short cycling on another in colder ambient temperatures. I'm starting to think that a lot of combinations aren't as 'overgassed' as people think they are...they just have more margin for changing variables. Regardless, I think the A5 buffer system does tolerate a wider range of those variables so the gas can be tuned down a *little* further as a result. |

I am very well aware of the pitfalls of gas pressure experiments. I have several rifles. The ones that I am intending to "re-tune" are the rifles that I am shooting longer distances with to kill paper. My HD rifles are all set up to be tolerant. Thanks for the info on the A5 |

Thanks G. You can say all you want in my thread I will poke around over there, I think my log in still works.well, for one, it allows the use of a heavier buffer and longer stronger spring, I run an A5H4 which is 6.83 oz(rifle buffer is 5.6, a H3 is 5.6) and a XP spring in my 10.5" LMT and DD 10.3"(which i just sold). I can't explain the physics behind the advantages of a longer rifle length spring vs a carbine spring, but my experiences, as well as the fact that almost all high level competitive shooters use them, lead me to believe that a rifle length spring has advantages over a carbine. "A benefit of the additional spring/buffer weight is that it slows down the unlocking and extracting tempo, increasing the locked chamber dwell time and allowing for much more reliable extraction and ejection. This is because the longer dwell time allows the chamber pressure to recede more, as well as transferring heat from the case to the chamber walls. It also offers a softer-shooting rifle because the recoil impulse is transmitted over a longer period of time, hence lower ft-lbs/second received at the shoulder." ~mike panone The LMT enhanced carrier also slows down the unlocking by venting more of the gas(before unlocking) through the carrier than a standard carrier. the combination of the two makes a gun that has a larger operating window that will smoothly and reliably cycle both high and lower pressured ammo, suppressed and unsuppressed, without having to turn down the gas to levels that may then make it unreliable in various conditions. This is more important on a gun that, by design, has a smaller dwell time*, perfect on a carbine gassed 10"er. *I define dwell time as the time between firing and bolt unlocking. The distance between the gas port and end of muzzle has a great deal to do with this, but as you can see, there are other ways to manipulate dwell time. there is an optimal dwell time and that time isn't measured in inches. |

Hell no. I have been a MK18 cloner poser wannabe way before starting this thread, and all the old school FSB/Mk18 pics finally made me want another.
We have been fortunate to have this thread stay on the first couple pages for a few months now. Lots of cool rifles in this thread. Everybody has a shorty in their heart, they are just afraid to admit it.

MK18s/CQBRs and mini RECCEs are the best rigs there are. Hence why Alaska spends a good amount of time in both of those threads.
My third CQBR is nearly complete. Think I'll be turning it into a mini RECCE. 
Haven't decided on optics yet though. An Elcan should be kosher for a mini RECCE, right? Although it's not a true variable optic since it's a 1x/4x. |

I think my can sounds better on the 14.5 than it does on the 11.5.
Thus the 14.5 now has the mini recce role and the 11.5 is back to being a light and handy SBR. Shit changes like the seasons. |

Yeah, I love these shorties! I'd be in the CQBR thread too but I went 11.5.
I just overhauled the mini reece with a Noveske upper. I was pleasantly surprised at the barrel to upper receiver fit. It required a bit of effort (not excessive) to slide the barrel extension into the receiver, and it stopped with about 1/4 the distance to go. Could not push it in with normal force. I tightened up the barrel nut (with no excessive force) and that basically pressed the barrel into the receiver. Nice and tight, and after 3 snugs I had no problem aligning the teeth for the gas tube. Upper also fits real nice on the lower. I think I won the tolerance stack lottery with this one.

got a quick and dirty zero today after test fire.  SBR-28 by Steeles240, on Flickr
a modified 50/200 zero target at 25. leaning on the bench with elbow and grip for support shooting wolf GOLD 55gr. (yes I know there's no trigger guard, the magpul MOE plastic one that came with the LPK stripped the screw trying to screw it in. I'll be ordering something this weekend.) |

Welcome aboard and nice rifle. Generally I'd point out that you shouldn't span the rail and receiver with your scope rings, but your shooting doesn't seem to be suffering. 
How does the rifle balance with the UBR and a short barrel? |

I made my last revision to my "plan" today, and I am going 13.7 as well to replace my BCM 14.5 In the interest of saving money I am going to cut that BCM 14.5 standard to 10.3 for my CQBR build, and chop my FN SS 16 inch midlength to 13.7 to take its place
I have way too many barrels, and since I never shoot that 16 incher, it is a prime candidate for the 13.7 midlength SBR Recce. I am not sure what ADCO will do to the gas port, but I will put an adj gas block on it anyway. |

I'm running my first adjustable gas block, another game changer I don't want to live without. I got a brand new ipad mini in the plastic to start this endeavor, poor college kid  . At least my head is in the game, ipad mini for MOAR mini-recce upgrades.

Minion; I do want a one piece mount for the scope. I grabbed the rings cause I wasn't sure I'd like the scope. (Also why I got the PA). But I am liking it so I'm looking at the ADM scout. As for the UBR, holding it feels off, but shouldering it it's good. Tucked into the shoulder you don't really feel the weight. However (shhh don't tell anyone) I put the upper on my other lower that has a vltor a5 setup with a b5 bravo. Shaved a full pound of weight and it felt a lot better. Might swap them. Gonna run it with the UBR for awhile. At least until I can run one of the two/three gun matches I shoot with it. I think if I ever get a suppressor the UBR will balance perfectly.

I just really wish more manufactures jump on the 13.7 middy/carbine barrel systems and produce more 16 OAL pin-able devices, unless the few of us here in the mini-recce thread are the only 13.7 lovers. SilencerCo is not only producing outstanding and highly adaptable cans, but their customer service and marketing is really attracting.

From this article the new BE Meyers/saker mount is long enough to bring a 13.7" to 16.35" OAL vs 16.45" with the current 249F model. Hopefully SS will make a Saker mount for the Omega, if/when they do I'll being buying one in a hurry too. I'm still tempted to pick up the mount just for the hell of it though.

I have a VCOG that will be making a home on one of my 10.3s at the range tomorrow afternoon.
Pics to follow. With a third 10.3 currently on the way, it's only fitting that one becomes a MR. |

Right on. Look forward to the pics.
We have a long way to go in overtaking the Recce thread @ 172 pages. Bastards have an 8 year head start.
I am going to have to beg VA for the anti-kill order on this thread. |

This is about as close as I could get to ATACS. The colors work in my AO in the current season and after the corn is harvested.
