Zero interest in the stubby grips of the same quality.  Would buy if @haveblue83 made some from real KAC stubby grips.

Cool to see people making reproductions of these.  I had an original one many years ago and the plastic felt terribly cheap. It wasn't worth the $10-$13 bucks I think I paid. IIRC, I replaced it with an A2 grip wrapped with inner tube.

Before I ever got into cloning, I bought an Mk18 upper from DD. Not long after getting it, I Form 1'd an 80% lower for it.

416 did it for me, but that’s basically the same as far as nfa is concerned. Seems like shortys are what did us all in.

If I could have afforded it then, I probably would've started there. 416's and 417's are at the very tippy-top of my list.

Most of these are finally done or as close as can be for now. Just playing musical optics trying to decide what I want where. Waiting on the can for the NSW clone and 12.5” Lilja 6.5 Grendel to be approved. Thinking of one of the new NX8’s with DMx reticle for the NSW and it’ll be done.

NSW with EXPS 2-2 and Sig Juliet 6



NSW with TA31



6.5 Grendel 12.5” with Larue Gooseneck quad rail



URX 3 12.5” with Noveske Afghan cut to flush




URX 2 with Wilson combat cut to 11.5” to be flush with suppressor
