Have you modified one of these to fit a slightly thicker barrel under the handguard? Mine comes in at .662” ish under the handguard and this Peq 2 mount needs a little taken off to fit.

Yep

Korienghal outpost 2007 IIRC.

Damn that was 16yrs ago, upper is 20yrs old.

FOB Wilderness IIRC

Recent pic, KAC lower was replaced with a more clone correct 80% lower. Upper and rail was touched up with some aluminum black.

Never touched up the barrel though, gunsmith buddy took the rail off and gave it a good cleaning when I came back. Original scope sits on my SR25 now.

With the tape switch and standard mount 150 - 200 would be pretty fair. I just bought a 951 with no tape switch for 132.50 off ebay, got another 952 which has the arms mount for 150ish, again no tape switch.

500 is wayyyyy high.

Yours is a 961 just FYI.

As pictured $100 - 150 is fair. I wouldn't pay more than that personally unless it came w/ filter caps and other extras.

There is something to be said for the tape switch if it still works.
