Yes Its A TACS FG. I dipped the stock, grip and FVG and then did the lower, upper and rail. I didn't like how they turned out after the 5th time of dipping so I just airbrushed them. The film was just too shinny for me and some spots missed the film and some looked stretched. Its not my full time job and it takes the right temp, activator, and technique. It was fun up to the 3rd try but then it was aggravating.

I must say I really like the Centurion rails. Im building 2 more one with the CMR 14" and the C4 12". I like the picatinny rail ones better because of the feel and there super light. I like how the bottom rail run doesn't stick down as far like on the Daniel Defense Lite II rail I have.
Also thank you for the compliments. |

My one and only FSB cutout upper made from a KAC SR-15 M4 barrel and BCG, Noveske NSR-11, and configured on one of my friend's PWS SBR, my LMT, and my gen2 Noveske SBR. Equipped with a no-longer produced PWS brake compatible with YHM QD silencers. |

Equipped with a no-longer produced PWS brake compatible with YHM QD silencers. Nicely executed, is that a 12.5" barrel? Thank you. The barrel length finished at 11.5" after threading 1/2-28. The way KAC put the muzzle device on that barrel was by press-fit, so the only way to get the FSB off was to cut it off. Once I'd removed the FSB, I could check the gas port diameter and it was in the high 70s. I knew it would have plenty of dwell time and be able to cycle with or without my silencer. Then the tricky part occurred when I started realizing the only way to get the FSB back on would be to tap the taper pin holes 6-32 and I had to drill a couple holes in the NSR to allow the .75" long setscrews to go back to their home. The photo showing the setscrews and allen wrench is when the barrel wasn't at it's final dimension. It's a fun upper to shoot with or without a silencer. |

Quote HistoryQuoted:
That's all I could find, any help? I'm not sure I follow, what can I help you with? Are you asking about the unit or the weapons? USAMU is the U.S. Army Marksmanship Unit, they're not a combat formation, and they run a great number of non-standard configurations based on what they're using them for, oftentimes having to do with competitions rather than combat, and as a result also have a large number of semi-automatic/commercial based weapons as well. With that being said, they're not solely devoted to building competition guns, the USAMU is probably most famously (on this website) responsible for the 3ID SDM-R, and Soldiers from USAMU have been deployed overseas to assist in marksmanship training for local security forces. 
Probably a picture of one of those other guns becoming the gun you just posted - I don't have specific information without digging into it, but I suspect the DD M4 12.0 came off of the SDM-R rifles, and is being replaced with a DD Omega X 12.0 FSP. Otherwise looks like an M4 Carbine with the auto sear removed. Sorry if any of that's already information you know, not trying to insult your intelligence, but not sure what you're asking for. ~Augee |

So I'm considering doing this to a midlength that I have. What are my options?
I'd prefer something with a short rail section in front of the FSB to allow for a light. Unfortunately, I know that means it'll be really long. With any option, would I have to remove the FSB? Mine is pinned in pretty tight. Weight is a factor, but it doesn't have to be KMR light. Just something reasonable. I also have a bayonet lug on mine, will that have to be trimmed? |

If you cut your own hand guard you could get about 9 slots in front of the FSB on a 15.0 hand guard or about 5 slots on a 13.0 hand guard. My only experience is with the DD RIS II FSP rails but I believe you will need to remove the bayonet lug and sling mount for a home brewed set up and you have to be able to drive in the taper pins.

The ARMS is pretty good, and folds up in to place very easily. I can see how it might get gritty with more use, as it has telescoping components and one piece slides within a small track. The Wilson doesn't have the bayonet mount and I don't think the two small set screws are as secure as the ARMS clamp. |
