By the time you get a tapered block it would be cheaper to get WOA to spin a barrel. Mini nsw is the shit tho. This is my 2nd longest lasting build. |

This thing has been kind of a beast to figure out how to make work. I sent my mid RAS to Brit and he cut it down a couple inches to use with a 1.04 tapered block. It’ll end up being like 10.7” and use an AEM2. It was the only option to get what I wanted. The “Too long” RAS was too short to use with carbine gas.

ITV's setups are amongst my favorite on the site. What is ITV? If there's one thing I really don't care about, it's what roll mark is on a lower. Fun fact - my most expensive lower is also the only messed up lower I've ever had and I have dozens. It was so messed up it had to be replaced. Noveske. |

If you saw my pts bins and work space you’d understand why lol that, and we’ve sent a rotation of URX 4s back and forth, as well as stocks and grips, and an upper or two that either has painted… between the two benches, I’m sure there would be one color-matched gun. I think.

Originally Posted By jtdam24: How do you like it so far? What are your initial impressions? Spent about 15 minutes fine tuning the diopter to my liking. The red dot seems really bright out in the sun - I have it set on 5 out of 6. Turrets feel great and the locking feature is easy to manipulate. This is also one of the newer (revised?) ones. I read the first ones had some issues, especially with the SFP and FFP reticles not being aligned. I have not noticed that in mine. Hoping to get out to the range with it soon. |

Attached File Attached File The elcan gun may be pushing mini boundaries but technically it counts I enjoyed shooting the 13.9 MRP today. The sci six sounds great and is very quiet at the ear but I need to do something about the gas. It stacks really quickly with the solid endcap. |
