Just found this thread, and boy is my day shot now.  There are some really good looking firearms on here, bravo guys.  Here is my first AR platform pistol.  Built by Radical Firearms in Houston (shameless plug).  They did a great job on it and shes a beast. First 762x39 also and I really like this caliber.

Mounted a 2nd PA RDS using another awesome KZ mount on the A1uppered pistol. Just finished sighting it in, on the back yard range here in the NC mtns.

Sighted to shoot 1.5" low at 40yrds. Total length is 85yds up to those logs. Theres actually a mtn side directly behind those.  tarp is for keep it covered up when not in use.

How do you like that MADD brake?
Was it worth the price?


This is a T&E unit provided by Silencerco for Review by TheGearLocker.net.. The Saker Trifecta that it is mounted to is a fantastic Comp, it works great. I am in FL and I can order Silencers as needed, so the price of the MAAD brake isnt something I can personally justify, but for those in Cali, who are looking for a Brake like this then the cost is more than likely worth it to them. Does it perform as designed, most certainly.

One thing I will add, it is Heavy and the weight is noticeable at the end of the gun. I had it installed on a 16" barrel for testing and it had an impact on my ability to keep on target unsupported. That weight has a positive impact on muzzle rise though. Pick your poison..

Cool looking rig!  But how the hell do you shoot that thing with such a short tube.  And please don't tell you just shoot it pistol style.

http://triplestitchtactical.net/ made for me, one of their Sig brace straps. Very well made. Fwiw.

https://www.facebook.com/triplestitchtactical



I trimmed the wings of the brace back 1.5", so its measurably smaller now. That gave me some excess strap length when I installed. For now, I just used 2 tiny zipties(shown in pic) to hold the short piece of excess strap. The D ring will not move from where its at. Theres a loop that sewn in place to keep it at that location. Which is perfect.

I really like the updated (FDE) retro pistol, BTW - even the MRD and sling. Is there a reason you didn't go with the longer buffer tube other than personal preference? Just curious.
ETA: I assume the HG and brace are FDE and just don't match the mag - they look OD in that light though. Kinda like the OD look.

Thanks. The brace(I just painted it) and furniture are all indeed in OD. Only the mag is FDE. Altho I have lots of OD mags. I've always liked OD, I guess. The shorter buffer tube is only 1" over the Sig brace with no spacer. The other 10.5" pistol up above in those pics, uses the longer 2" extension KAK buffer tube. I've sorta gravitated to the shorter one used on the A1 more so lately. Makes the OAL exactly the same with the 10.5", but with an 11.5" barrel. Nice and compact, but still very usable tho.

ETA:And Morg, I agree. The trusted old light-weight quick-handling A1 still is a favorite of mine to carry and shoot. I think I'm going to swap the 10.5" pistol light and mount over to the A1. I like this A1 enough that I now want it fully capable of doing the HD thing(ie:light and RDS). But otherwise still keep it toned down to the basics.  Light and compact, but still now just as effective as any other "setup" HD 'whatever'.

I trimmed the wings of the brace back 1.5", so its measurably smaller now. That gave me some excess strap length when I installed. For now, I just used 2 tiny zipties(shown in pic) to hold the short piece of excess strap. The D ring will not move from where its at. Theres a loop that sewn in place to keep it at that location. Which is perfect.

The 11.5" in OD color is a LW pencil profile. the upper 10.5" pistol in Multicam is gov't profile. The buffer tube assembly is from Ultimate Arms. It was bought as a kit. along with the brace. Typically runs around $160-175 ish complete.

Over 26" OAL you can have a VFG, it's considered a "firearm" by the ATF. See the Franklin Armament XO-26 for reference

Your welcome and thanks. Its in between the typical KAK tube thats on my 10.5"...and/or no spacer at all. Just long enough, but still very compact for tight quarters duty.
