I bet Paladin Machine in Kershaw, SC, would do it. Could probably whip up a click-adjust or set screw tunable variant too.

Can anyone learn me on the FF RAS medium part number change? Mine is marked 99166, but new ones are 20214. It's not a Vero Beach OG. When did that change happen?

I’ll have the thing for the project sent out Monday! I’m looking forward to it my man! And I know it’s in good hands, it’s with a fellow Texan GWOT-tonian.

If you look on KAC’s website, it has the 99166 PN Here

As opposed to Operation Parts with the 20214 PN Here

So it’s either one of the older originals and they just changed with the re-release or there’s something we’re missing. They have the same amount of holes and pic rails. I can’t see any difference.

IIRC, and I may be wrong, All medium ff ras rails with the 9 part number are original run and not vault rerelease. The 9 part number carried forward well after the move from VB to Titusville. I wanna say the switch from 9 to 2 was done more recently, like within the last 5-10 years. I’m pretty sure when the medium ff ras was rereleased as part of the vault release they were all with the newer 2 part number. Medium ff ras rails were pretty damn hard to find for a long time before the vault release happened.

Yea it was cheap for being an ARMY SPEC. Dude said it was painted and didn't even know what an ARMY SPEC F1 was. Said the previous owner did it and it came on a rifle he bought. After some serious scrubbing I realized it's gotta be cera or dura.

If it was cerakote it should be the air cure so I'll try some aircraft remover on it.

Wasn't blasted as they taped off a lot of stuff and it's all still factory there. If I can't get it off I guess this rifle is getting rattle canned ha.

Couldn’t tell if that spot in the pic behind the zoom ring  was part of the pattern or a spot where the coating came off and was blasted aluminum. If it’s duracoat aircraft remover should do the job. If it’s cerakote probably gonna need to be rattle canned. Honestly, if it was cheap enough I’d buy one like that and just spray bomb it.

Ya, now that you mention it, it could be. Really not sure. I opened the box. Scrubbed on it. Then threw it in safe.

I'll mess with it tomorrow. Honestly, rattle canning it sounds like the best option. It's the least amount of work.

I think rattle canning it is the way to go. Thing with aircraft remover is you gotta keep it off the lens or it will tear up the coatings.

It was project manager boot camp.  I highly recommend it.  Despite 8 hours of lecture, it was extremely engaging.  The rest of the hours are spent thrashing with your team to hit your deliverables.

Sounds like it, which means the body is probably blasted. That sucks, but rattle can can fix that and at least he left the top of the turrets.

Do they blast it even with air cure?  They left all the markings and there is the black anodization left on all those.

If that’s an R700 in a different stock, you did a good job. One of my best buddies hunts with that exact setup and nails everything inside of 500 yards out in west Texas and I definitely shoot 100x more than him in a year

It's a custom built rifle with a 700 receiver and proof barrel.

I've taken it out to 1200 with the 24" barrel. It's a WTO switch lug. It used to look like this...





But trying to drop some weight and change things up like I always do.

It was going to be a MK13 Mod 7 when I got the can but ended up going 6.5CM

I'd love to throw it in a RACS chassis but those can't be found and are insane pricing.

Proper application of cerakote is supposed to be applied onto a blasted surface whether it’s air or oven cure. A lot of people will apply it over Ano, usually the finish doesn’t hold up very well if it’s done that way.
