As most of you probably know, I don't typically sell my clone uppers, especially ones as perfect as this but I couldn't be more excited to let this one go to a good home. It's been a long search but I finally have my final Vero Beach marked RAS (MRE) handguard to complete my set. Here are the departing pics of this upper before it heads to the chopping block.

 Attached FileTook the colt with the ACOG and MRE out to the range for a little therapy. She did beautiful. And tripod shooting is now the only way I can go. Hopefully gonna set it up for an AEM-5 when I can find mounts. Rang some steel out to 300 with it stupid easy. Also, someone talk me out of selling my URX ii. I really don’t want to but I have 2 10.5’s I love shooting and don’t know if I can talk myself into another short barrel .223/556 |

Sent Ron measurements for the m4 ops 12th collar the other day.
Is there anything i should know about installing it? I know they're tight, but how tight? Like thermofit or just wiggle on? |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Outrider: I'm steering more towards less rifles in the collection overall but full decked out. Quality over quantity. I used to have so many half ass projects and stuff that constantly got built, torn down, etc without ever being shot. There's plenty of other configurations I'd like to own but I've come to realize that they won't get shot or used. I'm not a collector type so I rather have a super fine optic on one rifle than 2-3 rifles with no or cheaper optics. Just my personal preference these days. Totally agree. 2 5.56 rifles. Recce/SPR and a CQB rifle. Just need to add a 6.5 creedmoor for 1000+ Yards. |

Hell, I have a lower 1/3 mount on top of my AK Dogleg rail. I can feel it being a tough transition to the 1.375 rings when I’d normally have the optic up where the piggyback is. |

New mount that gets the MRDS mount pretty low. Didn’t even think about it but having it mounted behind the turret blocked the auto adjust sensor. Unfortunately I had to mount it in the front to even see my dot.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Dyzastr: @CMCctx I can take a pic of that riser for you quick. It's the larue lt110. There is a step up at the back that pushes the acog forward. So even if it fit, which also depends on the mount you are running, it would still push the acog close to an inch forward. Those eotechs I mentioned are about all that play nicely with that riser. So even if you were to have an acog mount that mounted up properly to the lt110, and if you were to run them without a rear buis, the acog would still end up further forward away from your eye. The lt101 has more universal mounting ability, but it is a 5/8' riser. (top image courtesy of larue) https://i.imgur.com/wytPR8i.jpg https://i.imgur.com/7YucuXO.jpg unless you mount the riser backwards...lol... Edit: I still agree with you 100%. Hahaha. Tomorrow is picture day finally, regardless... |
