That is true. I was lucky enough to find mind for $85 which isn't terrible considering how much harder these are to find with so many doing clone builds now.

Thanks! My aimpoint T2 should be here this week with a geissele mount. I still need to buy KAC buis and a gemtech suppressor bolt. A geissele airborne charging handle will be going in it also, which I have laying around.

Once PSA releases their M4A1 clone lower, I'll be form 1-ing that and switching it out with the PSA poop gremlim lower which is currently on it.

PSA M4A1 clone lower? What’s the deal with this? I tried to consult Mr. Google but it’s not turning up much. I assume they can’t use the logo but are they going to mimic everything else?

This is what is will look like. Follow this thread and you can see all of the cool/goofy lowers they are releasing all because one customer tried to crap on their business.

The pre order is done for the PSA clone lowers. So, the people who put in for them should get an email and get the first grab at them. To date, all of their new lowers that have come from the GD thread have been limited runs. But who knows how many they will end up with on this one.

It’s what we’re HOPING it looks like. I’ve entreated PSA to have experts proof the markings before production so they don’t cock it up like other manufacturers have done (Aero).

Just got my Virgin Colt FBI HRT Barrel in today. Date Coded 02/16

As soon as I got home I mocked up the Upper just to take a peek at what she’ll look like



Still making the decision of whether or not to stay with the KAC QDC Flash Eliminator or throw a First Generation MAMS on there.... super happy how this is turning out though

No, my KAC Irons are not visible at all through my Geissele 1.93” mount. But I plan to zero them separately just purely as a back up...

I don’t see it as an issue when you’re running a quality Red Dot/Holographic Optic

I bought the barrel with the G gas block already pinned by ADCO.  I didn’t have any issues removing it or re-installing it for the barrel nut.

I don't know about that. I literally have all the parts to complete an FBI build (FBI rail, Colt upper, Colt barrel, Troy BUIS, Aimpoint T1 on a DD mount, etc.), but still don't know if I really want to. When I was piecing together my MK18's, I couldn't wait to build them. I just lost interest in this build.

I myself am in the 11.5 > 10.3 group. I’ve just liked the way they looked and shot better... imo nothing looks sexier than an 11.5” with a mid length URX (II or 3.1)

Lol, I swapped my URX II out in favor of the Mk4. The KAC gas block rubbed/interfered with the heat shield and it always bothered me, and no mechanical anti rotation. But, it was sexy.

The KAC CQB Gen III Clone was my first experience with the FBI HRT Barrel. I liked it so much that I had to grab another and since I sold myself on an FBI Clone as soon these rails came out I had to get it done....

It’s damn near impossible to pick a favorite between my stable lol I love them all for different reasons... just wish I had a KAC QDC/CQB to run with all of them. It’s about the only thing I’m missing atm...

11.5” is the ideal length for me. I fell in love after getting my SR-16. Its hard to go with any other barrel length in a 5.56.... unless it’s a Dimpled 14.5”

I would say they’re mostly C Marked Cerro forge uppers being that most of the uppers were just 11.5” FSP uppers that had KAC RAS or other clamshell rails then were upgraded to the Troy rail then later Geissele.

But if they were any newer production uppers coming in they would most likely be getting a Cage Code Upper from either forge I would believe (Cerro Forge or Brass Aluminum Forge)

I sold my Geissele stainless gas block and bought a G carbon steel (black) gas block.  I just didn’t like the look of the stainless G block.  The dumb/contradicting thing is that I’m using a bead-blasted stainless barrel.

Never thought of painting the barrel nut until I assembled it and noticed it’s kinda bright.  So yeah I was thinking of it.

Depending on the color of the barrel nut and rail, I do too. Trouble is the wide variant of colors from both manufacturers. I just shaved my FSB and painted both.

Do it! The KAC Panels are so comfortable...

I’m one of those that likes the contrast on the barrel nut and gas block. Plus I was thinking it’ll look good when I finally decide to throw a SR-16 Sandcutter in there, which will most likely happen...

Been working on the house so haven't had much time.  I did find time to catch a OD SOPMOD in stock and changed the black out for green.  Stripped a screw on my MRO mount so I guess I need to pony up and go ahead and get a Larue MRO mount inbound.  Also ordered the stuff to build a Form 1 Suppressor for this using the Dead Air mounting systems.   Hopefully the Feds get back to work and can get that on the road because this bitch is LOUD!  

Also managed to get hands on a FDE SOPMOD.  I am thinking about doing a 9mm PCC SBR build with the FDE setup using one of the AE Colt 9mm Upper/Lowers they sold a while back .

That is so nice! So much OD Green on her -  she should named after Popeyes old lady....

The Magpul are nice I just love anything KAC and any reason to make my first non-KAC MLOK Rail a little more URX always helps...

I’m having second thoughts about selling my second OD Green FBI MK4 - really thinking about getting a MOD 2 CQB and just throwing the MK4 on it...
