Buy a barrel from CLE and then there's no need for a face lift from ADCO. Oh and what's up with this ballin' recce thread.....I see some folks have been busy while I was incognito....

I talked to Frank and he worked up my 14.5” mid length ops inc on a douglas blank and it’s been amazing. ETA: I believe Dobs is running a CLE also on his gangster RECCE |

Who's gonna clone one? Haha |

Help me with the KAC rail. I'm interested in the SEAL recce specs, to the extent they can be known.
There seem to be several variations of the FF RAS and I'm not sure what is authentic and what is "good enough." I'm building m Recce around the Lilja 16" M4 Navy barrel with the KAC M4QD Flash Hider for its N4 suppressor. What rail model number is authentic? I know it has to be a KAC FF RAS, but it seems that the authentic ones are labeled "M4 Match." It is a 12" FF quad with the KAC rails on three sides. What I can find appears identical other than it is labeled differently. It has SKU part number 21318 and is listed most places as KAC Mk12 Mod 1. This is obviously for the Mk12 Mod 1 build. Are they identical beyond labels? How clone correct must it be to run on the Navy SEAL recce? |

The one you have identified as being labeled as M4 match most likely also has Vero Beach and would be the historically accurate rail however that would be a feat to find and most likely twice the dough of the current production. I'll post a pic here soon and it is the current production model rail and is good to go. |

I'd just like to be a bit more true to form. FWIW, with match component handloads that barrel is sub 1/2 MOA. I just added the KAC flash hider to mount the N4. I'll place the order for the rail. Much appreciated. |

What barrel length is this? I would think it’s a 16” Lilja but just wanted to make sure. Looking at possibly cloning it.

| Just saw this: https://ballisticadvantage.com/16-inch-556-midlength-non-threaded-cmv-modern-barrel.html Wondering if it would be a good cheap one to send to ADCO. I already have my Douglas but a spare never hurt and it come's unthreaded so they are choppin it anyways. All my BA barrel's have shot great. |
