So I've had this Trijicon TA-31D 100581 for awhile and thought this said USMC but is actually USNM855. Getting old

I started making an M16A4 clone (planned to use a DD RIS II), and then diverted and went M16A5.
    Not done yet, but anyone else do this? My major departures are the Magpul UBR2 instead of the VLTOR EMOD (UBRs are already used by the marksmanship team, so it's not that unlikely that the UBR would have been selected instead), and the ARMS #41 BLP folding FSB (not pictured). Probably doesn't belong here, but I'm having fun with it. |

Curious about USMC issued visible weapon lights around 2012-2015. I understand the PEQ-16A was in circulation, but what else was commonly being used/issued around this time? Were these usually unit purchases or individual? Hoping someone could....shed some light on the subject for me

Not a bad price for an upper and rail. There are very few places where you can still find these uppers, I would recommend jumping on it. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Metzger31: Is the spectre gear raider sling clone correct? Or just the BFG sling? Someone with a little more knowledge feel free to correct me... As I understand it, the BFG/Vickers VCAS sling is a relatively recent adoption for the A4 by the USMC, sometime in the '20-teens. Before that, the Spectre gear sling was used, but it seems like slings were never really standardized on the A4 much between the Army/MC. I've seen photos where guys have old black web silent slings, Garand/M14 slings, specter 2/3 points, Viking vtacs, etc. As best I've ever been able to tell, there was a lot of unit/individual purchase of slings so nailing down a single "correct" sling will really just depend on you trying to replicate a particular rifle or a rifle from a certain era. FWIW, my A4 build is geared towards an end-of-the-line A4 used by the USMC around 2015 so I went with the BFG sling and buttstock adapter. It's a little convoluted, but hopefully that helps some. |

Either: VLTOR VIS-KM12 https://pkfirearms.com/vltor-vis-km12-keymod-upper-receiver Or VLTOR VIS-KMSL12 https://pkfirearms.com/node/12384 They are both 12" I got the KMSL12 because of the smaller profile. The M16A5 concept rifle used a standard KM12 but with a different profile; note the slightly flared section in front for the handguard cap (why??) And the double sets of locking tabs on the bottom. I'm very happy with mine. |

SOMEBODY is reading my thoughts!!
I was staring at this post on Facebook when my phone rings. It’s a Jacksonville, FL number. I normally don’t answer calls from people who aren’t in my contacts list. If a name doesn’t show up when my phone rings, I don’t answer it. I’ve recently purchased a couple of items from people/places in Florida and thought it could have something to do with those, so I answered it. IT’S BLACK CREEK PRECISION ON THE OTHER END!  She tells me the same as what this post says and I tell her I want one (don’t need it because I got the 80% lower engraved with FN markings, but I haven’t milled it yet). $115 plus shipping, not too bad in today’s market.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By WIZZO_ARAKM14: I bought Palmetto's M16A4 clone lower to go with my clone. I think it was $10 more than that, but looks the same. Side topic, where do you get a lower engraved to match certain markings? I have some 80%'s and want to clone my brother's M4 from 2009 when he was deployed in Afghanistan. I used Vader Tactical. I bought the lower from him and he engraved it. I think you can also send lowers to him (Randy Spade) for engraving. |

Email is in order. Thanks Oh ok, I didn’t see that, I just went straight to his pics. Well, an email won’t hurt! |

Here’s my humble submission. It isn’t 100% correct, but my goal was to make a pretty good shooter.
 FN upper with a P&S rail KAC VFG Colt carry handle “GI’d” A2 grip (shaved the finger nub and added some inner tube) Nitride bcg (a concession to maintenance) Colt M4 lower (from a 6920) CavArms A1 stock (I’m just too short for an A2) Carolina Laser Works UID tag (because I couldn’t help myself) Now if you’ll excuse me I’m going to go LARP “Battle Los Angeles” in my back yard. |
