Picked up an NXS 2.5-10x42 Mil-R that is basically new for $1,350 and now I have a functioning clone to shoot.

anyone have experience with the linemount a1 replicas?

Looks like they are using the more modern A2 polymer, and a full foam fill.  Hopefully going to finally secure the lower I want for my mod 1 build; I want to use the shorter LOP A1 stock, and since colt CS stock's are hard to come by, wanted to see how the linemount compares

linemount stocks

They also make an A1 grip but I believe Ergo would be correct for a Mod 1 build as well?

Was the mount on this rifle the OBR or PSR mount?

Depends on how I'm feeling lol.

I really think it's a PSR after going all lance on the photo. Front ring looks lower than rear ring.

Anyone have a hook up on where I can buy an ACE Socom stock?

I've been checking DoubleStar daily and finally snagged one when a new batch came out.

Then they cancelled my order because I'm in Washington State.

Makes zero sense. I've ordered complete uppers and triggers from Geissele, stocks, LPK, and many lower parts from from Midway, Palmetto State Armory, Rooftop Defense, Tombstone Tactical, and many others with zero issues. Many within weeks ago.

This has never been an issue until now.

I asked Doublestar what retailers sell the ACE stocks and they said it was some exclusive deal through them.

Hm. Maybe I'm remembering it wrong. I thought for sure it was an OBR mount, tho. That might've been the Mod1 with the Leupold Mk5 on it, actually.

Which clip on is that?
3/10/2026 9:42:14 AM EDT
[#14]
That is a PVS-24. I think I have seen pictures of Mk12 variants with almost all of the issued Clip-Ons at some point (PVS-22/24/26/27/30 CNVD-LR) so if you want to stay 'clone correct' you don't seem to be limited to just one optic. I like the PVS-22 or 24 for this size of rifle, I'd probably throw the CNVD-LR on if it had a bit more optic on it.

I've been looking at some of their lowers, but haven't made the purchase yet.

There was a Reddit post not too long ago stating that they're no longer producing the GM Hydramatic A1 lowers.

Edit: I think there's a thread in the Retro section about BAD. A lot of good reviews from what I remember reading.

I would go BAD because F intlmilco for charging so much for a lower.

[Last Edit: Light1984][Edited] [#28]
Yea, I don't really like the price for a stripped lower, but... int'l Milco is making roll marked lowers, versus BA being laser engraved. I want to do a Colt clone, but I'm not sure the best way to go about it other than finding someone with a Colt logo die. Was thinking Int'l Milco for a US Govt Property marked m16a1, then Etch the logo and address, but the price, oof.

the 'failures' are few and far in between. I have had several BA barrels that were easily MOA or under shooters. For $79 I dont think you can go wrong. I dont think any of these barrels will have something insane like a canted extension or wrongly-drilled gas port or anything else like that.

My Mod H had a BA barrel, shot about 1.25" with the same load (25.2 of 2520 and a hornady 77) my Mod 1 and 15.1 Recce would be .75-.85" with.

I had one in my Mod H. It would not shoot any better than 1.5" no matter what I fed it. The one saving grace is that it would group ball rounds just as well as match, so it was cheap to shoot.

BA ended up sending me this exact barrel after I had returned two others that were nitride finish, the two barrels shot well over 12" groups at 100 yards and damaged my AEM5. Thankfully Ron Allen was able to repair the damage. I posted a pretty in depth thread with pics a while back when it happened.

This particular barrel shoots at MOA and for the price and BA's MOA guarantee, it's a pretty good deal. If it shoots like shit, just keep returning them until you get one that shoots to your approval.

I have an extra upper/Lower/BCG that I've been looking to turn into something cheap and I just might jump on this deal.
