People told me it would screw up the scope, but I havent decided what mount I want yet. I did notice a lot more heat mirage with the two LT-152's

Interesting. I have never done it, but I had heard of others doing it with no issues. What did they say it would screw up?

Basically if the rails dont line up perfectly and you tighten down the scope you can put a lot of stress on the tube and possible crack the lenses inside.

When I get back from vacation I will switch back to the LT-152's. If there isn't a left/right shift in POI from 50 yards to 100 yards then I think the rails line very well.

Ahh, that makes sense. I was going to have them both on the upper receiver of an AR-10, maybe that would be a little different.

My revamped SPR.  I replaced the 12" KAC FF rail with a Larue 13.2 since it kind of looked funny with a midlength instead of rifle gas system.  Now I'm happy.

Short of some unforeseen obstacles, I expect this to become a more or less annual event. I know a few good guys who take great pictures with great cameras to be there, so you's should all be able to see what happened!

3 months after I started on my lil project and all Ive done since is added Magpul XTM rail cover's




All I want to add are a brake for suppressor attachment at a later date ( leaning towards a op's inc brake ) a bipod mount ( got a homeless harris bipod ) but most especially I need to figure out what brand scope and magnification I want on this stick!

Vortex or leupold 1-4x24 PST / 1.5-5x20 M2  or go with something a lil stronger like a 2.5-8 scope arrrrrrrrrrrrggggggghhhhhhhh ( bangs head on desk )

I find it interesting that quite a few SPRs on this forum were built with the Magpul UBR stock. I've got one on my carbine, but never even thought about using one on my SPR build.

Any SPR+UBR owners care to comment on their stock choice?

Yeah, I like the stock it works great for consistent cheek weld and also balances a longer rifle, I have had CTRs, SOPMODs, Emods, UBRs and I like the UBR the most.

Was never going for an exact Mk12 clone, so was not constrained...  Never going to mount a PEQ, and won't have any ARMS stuff on my weapons.  May mount some NV at some point, so the PRI rail was the winner.

Good luck on finding the SWAN Sleeve that was used on Mk12 Mod0s; it's out of production and practically impossible to find.

Here's my SPR-ish rifle.  I built it for 3-gun so it normally wears a 1-4x scope, but here it is reconfigured with a Bushnell 3200 10x for a Prairie Dog hunt this week.  The upper receiver has kind of a purple tint but not nearly as bad as this pic makes it look::



Here's what it normally looks like, with the rest of my 3 gun gear:

Nice rifle and paint job. Im thinking about getting the PRS stock to balance out the weight of mine, how's the cheek weld using irons with the cheek riser all the way down?

This is the one I was talking about. It's from PRI not ARMS but looks similar to the original. I think the one jdhill used looks good, I may use the mid length one myself. I've never seen that one used before and just wanted to know why.

The one you used seems like the updated version. It would be interesting to see the weight difference, hanging out over the front a little goes a long way.

The PRS has been good to me so far. I put the cheek riser up a bit for the pics, but it has been down for dry fire and range time. I haven't had a problem using it with the irons.

It also really balances my rifle out, with CG being close to the middle of the magwell IIRC.
When I received my upper, my first thought was "this thing is way too heavy to  balance." When my PRS showed up that thought changed to "this is going to be too heavy on the back."
It seems that I was wrong both times.

PrometheusSmith, I'm glad to see you're using the extra black oxide screws we include with the Cerakoted selectors

I prefer the LMP SOPMOD stock for my SPRs, it's much lighter.  As the SOPMOD stock is LOP adjustable, the only thing it's lacking which the PRS stock offers is the cheek piece.  Meanwhile, the SOPMOD is compact when collapsed and is more comfortable

Quite a few years in the making on my budget... Especially since I wasn't going to compromise on anything I wanted for the rifle.
 


Everything on it is my personal top choice for what I want to do. It would take too long to try to list everything that's in this gun, as the only original parts are the upper/lower/barrel.
