Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By CMCctx: I know it's been discussed before but I can't remember or find the verdict. Did any FSB Block II use M4 contour barrels? Remember they took standard M4A1 Block I guns and added a new rail. Barrel can either be Govt profile or SOCOM. I've installed both with or without FSB. CD |

 Attached FileIf I had both barrels on hand, I would give the shooter a choice. Yes, I would have to remove the FSB, handguard cap and barrel nut. Reinstall with the DD barrel nut on, install rail then retap the taper pins back into barrel/FSB. CD |

Thanks CD! Now I just have to find a FSB rail!
Actually further clarification that has no bearing on anything really: were any Block II built new, or were all converts? |

Rebuilds as there is no Block II built by a commercial facility and then bought by DoD. All are M4A1s converted to the standard. Just as URGI's are rebuilt off URGs/Block IIs. CD |

I'm looking to get a new scope mount for my Razor 1-6, and was wondering, has the ADM Recon-H been spotted? Or just the standard height ADM Recon? I would get a Geissele, but they're out of stock everywhere and I'm interested in ADM now.

I know it's been asked before but, again, I can't find it in the pages. Someone asked if B E Meyers 249F was ever seen on Block II. Someone else chimed in that they were mainly seen on the 10.3". Has ANYONE seen a 249F on a Block II? Even individual purchase?

Someone else chimed in that they were mainly seen on the 10.3". Has ANYONE seen a 249F on a Block II? Even individual purchase? That's gonna be a tough one to find if it's ever happened. That said, it's been used on HK416 14.5 recce-ish rifles. You can follow the logic of a 14.5 recce but with a RIS II and roll your own; yes, I recognize this is a "clone" thread but I take the (possibly unpopular) position that using legit clone parts in somewhat obscure combinations is still "cloney." The NSW versions pictured above all have FH556-RCs, so that may negate this logic somewhat...or a lot, depending on who you ask.    ETA: M4A1 BII pic thread

Hey folks, thought I'd drop in here as after a few years of kicking it around I've decided to start a block ii fsp inspired build.
Just picked this upper up in the EE (thanks KosherNRA):  https://www.ar15.com/forums/equipment-exchange/Colt-Socom-Block-2-upper-clone-correct-with-Stag-lower-for-a-sweet-deal-/159-2102359/ Which atleast gets me about halfway done lol A question I have, as I've seen a handful of you guys with them, is are the colt tanondized or geissele ddc receiver extensions correct? Whenever they get posted i dont think people really mention them. Otherwise, I'm super excited to get this done and my wallet will totally not hate me

Quote HistoryNice! Good call on the M4QD... KAC/A2 should minimize how much carbon gets caked on the front of your M203 barrel. While you're waiting for the receiver, consider getting on the list for an MWS ladder, too. Stupid accurate with the M203 affixed to the rail. Blows my M16A2's wobbly handguard out of the water and lets me drop chalk inside a small window at least 90 yards away. Got the right spot for it measured up with Block 1 parts:  |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By LsuJon: Originally Posted By brodband8: Good money in guns/optics. airsoft peqs lol. Yup. Back in those days, the civilian version of the AN/PEQ-15 wasn't available like it is now - it was fairly common in those early days of cloning to use airsoft ones - and really just for pictures. I still go back and forth on getting the ATPIAL-C - as much as I want one, it would literally sit on top of my gun just looking pretty - I'd never use it for its intended purpose, which requires another $5-7k (at least) worth of NV shit to really do what it's designed to do. Who knows though, I have a lot of shit that isn't very practical, so "never say never" as the saying goes - maybe I'll change my mind. |

ok im at a breaking point IM DONE WITH COLT. the lowers are just stupid expensive at this point and im ready to look at FN * shivers*. I wish CD had an image archive i could just browse through instead of this awful site with such poor search. But im wondering if someone can save me some time. When it comes to FN lowers, do they have an equivalent to the "property marked" lowers from colt, that is the as close as you can get 2 hole lower?
