Notes:

There are 3 rough iterations of the Mod H:

1)First handful were built at SOTIC armory directly by MSG Holland and another gentleman, using COTS parts ordered from Brownells etc. The one we can see closely had a black Colt Keyhole forged upper, black PRI Gen III handguard rifle length, and a black PRI Recce Rail. The barrel was unmarked, with a heavy/SPR profile, mid-gas, and OPS profile, and coated black. Only 2 of this type have been photographed, one of which may have actually had a Noveske barrel.

2)The second, larger grouping of Hollands were rebuilds of original SPRs. These can be distinguished as they all have FDE Gen III handguards, and retained the upper and lowers from the SPRs, often identified in that the upper and lower have matching worn rattlecan paint but the handguard is unpainted. Often the optics, suppressor, etc matched the upper/lower. These had the Noveske FDE barrels. Non rattlecanned ones you can identify by their uppers being Colt AF forgemark or Armalite (haven't seen one, but likely in the mix).

3)The third iteration apparently were assembled by Precision Reflex, with them supplying new parts for the entire upper. These had Keyhole forge contract uppers coated in FDE, FDE Gen III handguards, FDE Noveske barrels, contract M16 BCGs. These likely were supplied with the Recce Rails, maybe with PRI back-up irons as well (though apparently rarely even used).

I would like to give a special thanks to 18E3V and Nikiel09 for the information about the "Holland" program that they have given over the years in the MK12 thread.  I would also like to thank HaveBlue83 and the other members  who helped in creation of this thread

Darn... I think I might have to build me one of these.

Awesome pics above, some I haven't seen in the other.  Looking forward to seeing this thread grow.

Solid read,  big fan of the Holland.

Great job Chenault ! Hollands have deserved their own thread for awhile.

Holland addict checking in. Member of the #AyeJuanGenJuanMafia & The Garage Pail Kids

I'm glad to see this thread. I am building a Holland inspired rifle. It won't be an exact clone for logistics sake. It will be using the same Surefire muzzle devices as my M4A1 so I can use the same suppresor, so I won't pollute this thread with pictures of it.

In on 1?

Awaiting a better full-time host for the SPR/M4 so I can run the AEM5 on this one, and I'll snag myself an extra A1 lower and Leupold 3.5-10 to make this thing proper.

Fuk'er I was just pricing PRI Tubes with just a small thought now you've gone and fucked my mind up............  I must purchase now

Depending on how this thread progresses, I may augment the Mk12 thread title. Good luck, chenault.




 

In on one cuz I wanna be a cool kid too one day.

 
Out with it. Can't make that post and then not deliver. Quoted for proof. C'mon, Stick.

Since when have you cared about upsetting people, out with it.

Lol. Go stick go!!

In on one for the story

I want

They're bastard rifles anyway.



Post away.



 

Mess of parts














Still need:


Gen I ACE SOCOM

PRI Gas Buster charging handle

PRI Gen III Forearm - rifle length - FDE

PRI Recce Rail

ARMS #22M Non-lever stop rings, or another option ITW

Leupold 2.5-8x36 Mark 4 MR/T 30mm riflescope

Atlas Bipod

Rattlecan treatment

 

Pic placeholder.

I'm looking forward to seeing where this thread goes!

Real life accounts of actual events is a good thing, regardless of whether or not it conflicts with existing accounts.

Loving all these pics, a lot of these builds I've not seen before.

" />
I'll play

I still have a lot of Holland parts

Let me guess, hollands were made with FN-rejected PSA barrels?

Has anyone tried a MicroMoa Govnah gas block under a PRI rail?

how hot does your pri rail get? on how many rds?

I shot maybe 6 mags yesterday on mine and it got noticeably hot (without a glove).

I'm thinking my shaved down FSB is still too big and contacting the rail somewhere and heating it up.

 
if i crack off 100rnds the forearm gets warm. i enjoy that.


twitchy i love those 3. i really wanna do a 12.5 sbr like the bottom one. i love that look

Depending on how fast you shot the 6 mags through I would expect any handguard to heat up pretty fast.  I use mine for more precision work so I can't give very good knowledge of how fast it heats up, but I would expect with as big as it is that it heats up slower than a lot of others.

Deleted by OP as inappropriate for this thread.  Sorry I did not understand build specs.

Not even remotely close.

Nice rifle, but it isn't a Holland, I'd try the Recce thread

I spy with my little eye a mothafuckin troll

Jesus Christ already someone trying to derail the thread

Already having an SPR as well as an 18" .308, I've always leaned more towards building a Mod H as my Mk12 clone since I do not have a 16" precision rifle anymore. Loving this thread so far.

Abomination !

 
much spermy. many sex. high paint. very wow.



that troll post is troll.
