It looks like one of the sling attachments from Zahal. I have a couple that I like to use. They're cheap, they work, they're light, and they're simple.

I finished this last month and haven't had time to shoot it yet. Hopefully tomorrow. I use the 6.5-20x50 Vortex on my bull barrel .223 but move it from AR to AR for load testing. My eyes aren't what they were 30 years ago. I'll put the PRO back on when I get the load settled. Maybe a 1-6 Leupold.

The gunsmith who cut my barrel didn't cut the right length. I asked for 10.5 it came back 11.5. Guess he didn't measure twice and cut once. Any way he discounted the price but would not recut. I have a 10.3 build but like the 11.5 better. http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj192/jayg0351/Mobile%20Uploads/20170110_115149_zpsd0q8nalu_edit_1484078158809_zpsw4v4wnqh.jpg View Quote Colt commandos are 11.5 Edit- you could call him back and see if he'd take it down to 10" then you could have an L119 clone Looks good as is. |

View Quote How do you like the mini on the 11.5? Would you recommend a full size can or do you like what the mini offers? |

11.5 does feel good. I finally got around to slapping this together last week. http://i.imgur.com/Q08K46r.jpg?1 http://i.imgur.com/m1ZCvVn.jpg?1 View Quote |

11.5 is the sweet spot for me. I've tried 10.5 (which I do like), and 12.5 (which I found a little too long).

This thread have convinced me to go 11.5 over 10.5. Question for the hive, carbine gas or mid length gas and how many of you guys are running adjustable gas blocks?

on your 11.5's do you guys prefer lightweight/pencil profile barrels or standard? I'm wanting to go lightweight but not sure how bad the POI shift is going to be with the suppressor? I don't mind weight so much but balance is important. I know there's no free lunch. trying to stay away from a 10lb SBR.

My new to me 11.5" uses the Faxon Gunner, which is gov't profile to the gas block journal and then pencil from there. Seems like a good compromise and balances very well with the 11.4oz Omega DT, T2, BUIS...

@vmpglenn How do you like the TA31 on an SBR? View Quote The 4x/1x pairing on an SBR works well, and IMHO is less awkward than a traditional tubed 1-4x scope on such a compact rifle. I can access the red dot with a quick twist of the rifle from either my left or right shoulder with no break in cheekweld. With apps like Strelok Pro, it's not hard to map the reticle to the barrel/ammo combination you're using. |

Can you give me the make/model of that top hand guard. That's what I'm looking for, but I need it in a 6.5" -7" .

5.56 on top, 6.5 Grendel below. The MCT PMAGs work nicely with the paint on my 5.56. http://personal.visualitymedia.com/personal/armory/11_5_sbrs_1100.jpg View Quote |

i've gravitated towards the 11.5" also , for 5.56 they're a good compromise. my latest build was an 11.5" gun , colt m733 commando as used in the movie "HEAT" http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v619/1iviper/IMG_3183_zpsfcrugg6r.jpg View Quote Now I need to build yet another A2 upper... Luckily I have a FN A2 upper sitting around from my last build. That upper was built as a 727, but I got a good deal on a Colt A2 and switched them out. Now I need a complete 11.5 barrel. Don't want to break down my original 6933 upper.. Oh, it's going on my 6933 lower. The only non F1 SBR I have. |

Quoted:
What barrels is everyone using? I've got an 11.5 project rolling around in my head and I've narrowed it to three, Ballistic Advantage, Sons of Liberty Gun Works, or (what I'm leaning to) Faxon lightweight profile. The advantage to the Faxon it's .625 gas block journal size which matches the .625 SLR adjustable I have on my 16in Predatar barrel. Rifle will be suppressed 100% of the time, with a 'K' sized 5.56 can. View Quote |
