So many pictures of pretty rifles! Here's my old girl after three days hunting in the Adirondacks.  It was pretty cold at night but warmed up into the 20s in the day at times, making for some softer snow. We bushwhacked, hunting all day and shared a tent at night. She ran flawlessly except on the final night after a long, snowy hike out through really dense scrub and forest, the mag release froze enough that I had to bang it pretty solidly to drop the mag.

Thanks for the feedback on the trigger pins. Picked up some generic $11 pins off ebay, fit great and actually make the trigger a little bit smoother. Along with KAK spring its much better than before. Certainly nothing precision oriented but it will work for now. Just need to choose an optic and she'll be done. Prob pick up a used swfa or something.
SCR Monte Carlo Lower Aero Enhanced Upper w/Gen2 15" rail Bear Creek 20" rifle length gas - cost me $56 bucks lol. Heavy A F. Wojtek adjustable gas block Had to go non threaded barrel to use detachable mag in NY. Didn't want to go the fixed route for this build. Honestly, i'll probably go for a 18" or 16" recce style upper eventually. Hard to find nice non threaded barrels and getting a thread protector welded on isn't cheap around me.

If you have no other options.
BCA Barrels are serviceable if you end up recrowning it(if needed)/deburring any defects in the chamber/feed ramps. |

I ended up buying a BCA barrel for my build as well. It looks great and any company that can guarantee 1 MOA barrels for $40 has my business, provided they perform. I will be having the profile shaved down to lighten it and re-crown it too.
The gun will only sport iron sights, so it will be more accurate than I will be able to shoot with it anyhow. |

Did I miss a post about these? Fightlight rail-mount sights ...
Shown at NASGW? One of the most frequent product requests that we receive is backup iron sights for our SCR rifles and pistols. So here they are, flush mount for the perfect check weld and eye relief, and fully adjustable for windage and elevation! Mounts to any MIL-STD 1913 Picatinny rail. See the complete line of FightLite products next week at NASGW! |

Thanks to Black Friday, I give you ...
The URG-I-NY:  Attached File(Edit: fixed the white balance. Original pic) Geissele 13.5" MK16 - DDC Geissele ACH - DDC Geissele SPM - HPR "NM" (short) - DDC Vortex Razor HD 1-6x24 Noveske 16" N4 Light - pinned gas block, p/w tp Bradley Cheek Rest - FDE "Tan" KAC Ambi Mag Release Badger Enhance Bolt Catch Streamlight ProTac - RM1 - Arisaka M-LOK Scout Mount The HPR "NM" mount is lower than the traditional SPM -- it's designed for absolute co-witness with AR sights, rather than lower-1/3 -- and is a very comfortable height with the Bradley. I do also have an ADM Recon-SL mount, which is 1/3" lower (can drop Bradley one hole), has no forward offset and is QD, but it's black and I hate the three-piece design. At some point, I plan to upgrade to a SureFire Scout (M300 or M600) in tan. Unfortunately, a laser/illuminator is probably out of my budget. The biggest issue that I have with the Razor is that I can't install BUIS. My Troy Micros would lower-1/3 cowitness, but there's no room behind the scope for the rear one. Even with the mount backwards:  Attached Filethere isn't enough vertical space due to the size of Razor (at least, in the HPR "NM" mount) to mount it for use with the scope removed. In that configuration, I could at least mount an offset rear sight (KAC makes some really nice ones) and then put an offset one up front. That would require relocating the light from 1:30 to, say, 4:30. Interestingly, I swapped the MK16 in for my 9.5" MK8 without having to reinstall the barrel. Though it only engages one slot on the barrel nut now, the MK16 is backwards compatible with the old two-slot barrel nut. Honestly, I would prefer an 11" to either one. Even the 10" MK4 Fed has just enough extra length to be noticeable, but I prefer the MK8 to the MK4. |

Ive been alerted to a local construction company with a wood cnc, the owner is on vacation though. Ive been assured by his employee that he would help. Ive also picked up an old weaver scope that I will have cerakoted to match the brass look. The gold trigger is the signature look of the cerakote artist who painted the rifle. Hopefully at the end of january she will be done, after after a year and a half.

Inspired by the posts herein, I went a little different route. Those of you with good eyes will see the Gibbz LH SCU. Yes, it is (perhaps the only one in captivity) a LH SCR. Long story short (I'm working on a build thread), machined a Stag LH carrier to replicate the SCR. Good news (just today), it shoots, ejects left, and cycles normally.

I personally did not do the work on these but I'll talk to Willie he does all the work on them. Here's a little explanation of what he does.
BIRTH OF PFI CUSTOM REM-LIGHT Alot people are asking how why what can you do with these REM-LITES what are the limits what are the prices I’m going to make this post here to answer everyone’s questions. They do use 11-87 ,1100 Remington and some 870 furniture with modifications needed to be made. Attempt at own risk if desire to modified by yourself, will need speciality tools and a precision hand to complete the task. These very in price depending on grade of wood. The wood can go as cheap as $400 to only up to $2000 Now that’s just for the price of wood. To do all the fitting you’re looking at additional cost wood just takes a lot of time and a lot of effort for preparation. Ever since they introduce these lowers it’s been a vision To take these lowers to the next level and to change the style of AR15. I appreciate what fight-lite has done and I only hope to complement their product and to introduce a new style of A.R. 15 on the market. You can buy these at Pfi firearms in Richmond Hill Georgia or you can pay over the phone or via a PayPal and we can have it shipped to your location of choice FFL. Prices will vary from 2K-4K and we are a fight-lite dealer as well and we can ship modified lowers if that’s all you choose. |
