[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Show us your SDM-R (Page 3 of 4)
Here's mine. It was my first AR I bought it shortly after the ban ended. My original intention was just to have something similar to the A2 I was issued, but that did not last long. It's a Bushmaster, I just bought the barrel and still need to swap it out. It's a Lothar Walther barrel from Superior Barrels.

What are the true specs on an SDM-R? look at wiki too, but here it is in a nutshell -m16a2/4 lower receiver with KAC 2-stage SEMI trigger, sear pin removed. later upgraded to the Giesselle 2-stage match trigger when the KACs wore out. -m16a4 upper receiver with standard BCG and charging handle -Daniel defense M4 12.0" handguard. HBAR stainless barrel with flutes under the handguards and threaded on the end . -FSB with set screws, standard A2 flash hider -Harris Bipod in ARMS bipod mount - Matech BUIS, with ACOG TA31F or what ever else is available |

What brand of sling swivel is that? Dustin |

I believe they are GGG, at least that is what I used based on the pictures I have seen. |

Edit: stand corrected by photo proof. The shotgun news article I read said there wasn't one, apparently the Army got smart and added them. |

Yep', the photo below showing the TA01NSN ACOG and MATECH BUIS is what I based mine on. A lot of folks thought that the TA31F/BAC type ACOG's were the only one's used on them. Same goes for the BUIS'.  |

Perhaps this thread should be extended to allow SPRs, since there doesn't seem to be a pic thread for them. Say WHAT??? SPR link.

I saw quit a few in that configuration. Matechs are on everything now that supply has caught up. In general Acog equipped weapons were the last to get them. Even the Marines are using them now. Note the 20 round mag too. Said to be in short supply yet our unit had a few cases of them- but no SDM-Rs! |

Quoted: that was not cool at all. I wanted to contribute to this thread to keep it alive. Where's your contribution Lambo? i came to this thread to look at sdm-r clones not nasty toes. brightening your toes up helps everyone to feel better about your pic, it was my contribution to this thread and everyone that was forced to look at your feet. |

I think foot fetish is another thread but nice rifle. |

anyone pick up an SDM-R complete upper from WOA?
its on their homepage: http://www.whiteoakarmament.com/ |
|
Checking the link, I did not see (old eyes) the price for the complete upper; only the barrel. School me and tell me what I missed?
I have an Armamlite NM, and I'm thinking about coming close to this by doing the following: Armalite A4 upper Troy 12" FF Rails Figure the NM Barrel 1:8 twist, flat-top upper would get me close a a very reasonable investment. The barrel is accurate, the twist is right and I don't shoot Service Rifle. It won't have a flash supressor, but IF I use it to do a dirty deed, I don't expect to get away with it in the first place. (Smiling) The Magpul stock on ENKRY's stick, could come later. accurate and sexy, does it get better than that? Constuctive comments are very welcomed. |

I have an RRA NM A4 upper inbound.
For the moment I'll be running it on my RRA NM lower from my current A2 Service Rifle setup. But in the future I'll do a second lower and I'm thinking of using the RRA Operator fixed A2 stock. Anyone have experience with those? On my A4 upper I'll be putting on a Bushnell 3200 10x mildot scope on the new RRA cantilever hi rise mount. Not exactly the SDM rifle but I figure the setup meets the same intent

Where can I find the correct front site base for the SDM for sale? I know it is attached by four set screws, but don't know what brand site I am looking for.
Also will the carry handle off a colt 6920 with 6/3 turrents work on a 20" rifle? Will the elevation clicks still be accurate? |

Three shots at 400m (the label 400/2.5m). 2.5m notes the mil hold over. Fired 75 Hornady reloads. First time shooting at distance, ever. Figured out the windage holdover later on

http://www.danpassaro.com/img/v9/p523321571.jpg Vertical stringing...are your breathing while shooting? unfortunately we spent little time at 400yd. These reloads were done with my new Lee powder measure and my first shots using that method. Therefore I'm not entirely sure how much breathing factored in. I felt that my NPOA was solid. Still I'd like to try using a rear bag and see what difference it might make. |

But, but, but you dont have a free float rail. ..and you Missed the head....yet it is still MOA shooting.  lol, thanks. figured out windage later. that is actually RRA free float rail handguard for Service Rifle usage eta: http://www.danpassaro.com/img/v4/p582500844.jpg Doh, I got pwned... still pretty good shooting as it looks sub-MOA. |

Those of you with SDM-R clones (Not SAM-R, etc...) how much (minus the optics) did they cost to build? Especially how much was the barrel? What kind and specs are recommended? Mine will be right at $2k, heres my parts breakdown.. LCW Lower Colt LPK CMT A2 buttstock assy Geissele SSA Trigger Colt Upper Colt Bolt Carrier & Bolt Douglas 20" 1/7 fluted barrel profiled by CLE, sold by Superior Barrels A2 Flash Hider Daniel Defense Lite or RIS II rail (to justify buying the wrench for another build) Matech BUIS White Oak Armanent F marked windage adjustable Front Sight Assy The barrel is on the way, waiting for funds on the handguard. My optic will be a TA31RCOA4 w/Larue mount, still a few months out, then off to zero and rattlecan the piss out of everything.

The build I am planning and currently gathering parts for will be right around $1600 without optics. Parts List: Armalite stripped lower DD lpk Giesselle SSA RRA A2 stock BCM upper reciever DD Bolt carrier Matched bolt from CLE Douglas 20" SDM profile barrel from CLE with CLE's chamber Windage adjustable f marked FSB from CLE DD m4 12" rail Leaning toward a SEI vortex flash suppressor at the moment. My rifle is not a 100% clone, but I intend to get very close with the rifle. Optics however I am planning to run a 2.5-8x leupold mk4 in a larue mount. I guess once I add optics I will have a SDM/SAM-R type rifle. Those of you who have the CLE barrel with their own design chamber, can you shoot 5.56mm pressure ammo? I have been trying to call them for the last three business days with no luck to ask this question. |
