The SL lets you stay more heads up. It's one of the things I prefer about the SL over the SOPMOD too. Yeah, that's my concern about it too. I've never tried one though. I don't always shoot this far upright, but I was trying to be really precise. The CAR stock is pretty much too short when trying to shoot like this. Or it's hanging on by a 1/4" and it's just annoying. I've got kind of a long neck too, so.... TheHammer: I really like it on there. But you'll lose street cred with the cloners. |

Thank you. It's gone through a few configurations but this last one feels good in the hands. Probably my favorite rifle right now.

To be honest, I clicked place order before I realized it was a K. I don't notice any turtle necking and I'm 6'1" 220lbs. Don't have any real time behind the K though yet as I just finished this one.

Did you ever try the older sopmod in comparison to the B5? I like how the B5 has the angle to it. For some reason that seems to make a big difference in feel with other stocks.... I've never got to try any of the sopmods though. They always look to me like it would force your head over on too much of an angle....... Those SL-K's are pretty cool. I guess the upside is it's probably a bit lighter than the regular version. Not sure how much though...... |

It's older, and the little spec sheet that came with it had no manufacture markings. So... I'm not even sure what kind it is. It was not marked anywhere on it either. Before I painted it..... The BDC seems to work and it holds zero as long as it's tight in the mount. On my A2 I have to add some tape or something. I think I actually added some pieces of aluminum can when I had it mounted on that A1 upper. As far as your AR there, that thing is freaking awesome. I wouldn't change a thing on that one!!!!! |
