ETA: NFA Tracker does list eFile individuals, but I don't think many people report because the average wait time is about two weeks (unless you get stuck waiting for your background check and then it'll be months). I'm still waiting on an eFile from 12/06/18 (date the fingerprints arrived).

See I almost posted that same thing minus the BOING eyes. But then I figured he prob already has a EXPS-2, and thats why he asked.....

To answer your question smitty, the main diff will be no hood cut out for NV button. And no logos /markings left after cerakote

Yeah good deals can be found, let alone people selling them at reduced prices on the EE. When building mine, I just sprung for the exps3-0 for color and capability correctness....despite not having NV...it gives me options in the future!

Show-off! You get to shoot some of the coolest guns. And select fire too.

ETA- well I’ve got 2 form1’s filled out. One form 1 suppressor, and an sbr for my colt lower. Just gotta send in the finger print cards and wait the hopefully short (relatively) wait and I’ll be in business. The suppressor won’t be clone correct, but it’ll be 100% user serviceable and it’ll get the job done.

Finally took the CQBR V2 out for a test fire and to get it zeroed. Meant to take it last time, but I realized I hadn't cleaned the bore/chamber at the last minute and left it behind :(.

Function was 100% shooting Federal M193 and Wolf WPA 55gr unsuppressed with an H3 buffer. Still need to get a front sight :\.

Not sure I understand. All current Colt barrels are marked 13629 as are the new receivers. C was the prior marking for both.

Same stuff.

I think it's more a case of them failing to update the product page. The previous batch of factory Colt 10.3s were all C marked as far as I know. Mine is dated 01/19 and is marked C MP.

Either way, since it's hidden it's not quite the same as buying something like an upper that is supposed to be C marked and getting a CAGE code upper. I wouldn't worry about it... everything going forward is going to be CAGE marked.

Hard to say if they went from C to CAGE to C again or what, but I wouldn't worry about it. Still the same parts

Here might be an interesting development. This image was posted to CRA by a contract armorer. The cut down and dimpled barrels are supposedly from Crane. Is it possible they've depleted their supply of govt profile barrels and are now chopping SOCOM's instead?

They're definitely being used, but I'm not sure if the current supply is all SOCOM profile or a mixture of the two. @Combat_Diver would be the one to ask.

The 10.3" SOCOM's that CD received through his supply were manufactured by FN. Those are factory dimpled and not drilled for FSB pins. Conversely, the barrels in the above photo are Colts—They're visibly threaded and dimpled post park, typical of a barrel modified by Crane. To my knowledge and recollection, this is the first time seeing that done to M4A1 profile barrels.

Crane has been sending me FN SOCOM profile 10.3".  We just got a shipment of 10.3"s at BAF but haven't seen them yet.  I'll be there next weekend to look at them to see what Crane sent.  Possible they did cut Colt SOCOMs down.  Does look like Cranes work.

Not if you cut it down to 10.3”

Although technically these look like FBI profile barrels(no cuts). If you scroll up on this page you will see discussion on the use of cutdown Colt Socom barrels on the MK18. It has been covered on here before as well.

I personally have a Cut down colt fbi hrt barrel on my mk18 0. It use to wear a govt FN 10.3, but I swapped to the colt and never looked back. The pros of the 10.3” socoms far out weigh the one con when compared to the gov profile IMHO.

That's just the 4 prong showing it's true unicorn colors

What was firing schedule on that? I don't think I have ever seen that either. I would guess that is the copper buildup on it that is starting to color? I don't see how you could burn through the coating and get it hot enough to heat color the base metal.

This is the brand new replacement 4 prong after I just replaced my other barrel that was shot out.

It has 2,100 rounds on it so far.  No full auto on this one yet, just standard firing schedule.  If it wasn't heat treated correctly, it should be now lol.
