Dude, I'd pay good money for a taupe, QDSS pepper grinder.



ETA: don't think I've put this one in here before.

Buy a black NT4 corncob and spray paint it.

To be perfectly honest, the "Mod H" hasn't really interested me too much - it's a cool looking rifle, and almost very certainly a very capable one, but I see it as bridging an ever shrinking gap between what the SOPMOD Block II M4A1 can do and a "full-up" MK 12 MOD 0 or MOD 1.  

Plus, at this point, if I'm going to do a 16" build, it would probably end up being an MRE-A build with a Lilja M4 - probably using my prototype B. E. Meyers/NT4 compatible flash suppressor, which may end up happening regardless.

Uh yeah, that's gonna happen. But only after you FINISH your Mk12s!

The rifle SSG Robert J. Miller is seen with is what I've been after.

Took two months to get the A.R.M.S. parts from Brownells, but the build inches closer.

This thing is a lot of fun and very accurate.



Still need a lower with a trigger (this one is just off an A4), but the project does inch forward.

Which ARMS rail did you use. is it the dedicated 556 rail? I am thinking of going that direction but i want to cut down the rail and mate it to my KAC rear BUIS.

I think someone mentioned a Mod H with a Mk6 1-6x a few pages back.  I decided to throw my Mk6 on my holland in progress and took a couple pics, it's just a little under 9.5lbs as pictured, the 3.5-10x is only a couple oz heavier.  If it were 5.56 I could see running it with the Mk6 but its a little heavy for what it is, by comparison my SR-15 with the Mk6 is under 8lbs (no bipod on the KAC).  

As a short sub 10lb SPR I think the Mod-H is the ticket, for more of a recce type setup I think I'd lean towards something more along the lines of some of the rifles pictured in the short recce thread. Of course, I may just be a girly man and need to man the fuck up and deal with it, 10lbs is only 10lbs after all.

Thanks, if you want to trade for your CQBSS just say the word! I like the Mk6 but it leaves a little to be desired at 1x.  I bought an Elcan SU-230 that should be here tomorrow, I'm going to do a head to head comparison between the two and will most likely sell one.

ELCAN on a Holland?

The Elcan is going on my SR-15, which is where the Mk6 currently resides.  I only put the Mk6 on the Holland to take a quick pic for the recce thread and to weigh it, I have a 3.5-10x for the Holland that I am happy with.  The Holland is a 6.5 Grendel so I only use it to shoot steel out as far as I can (I hope to shoot some delicious animals with it next year) and rarely use it on anything other than 10x.

I had plans to turn the Holland as it sits now into a 5.56 version with a 13.7" Noveske barrel, I was planning to order a AE5 after the first of the year and thought that a mini Holland along the lines of what a couple other guys have done would be sweet. That was all before I lost my mind and spent all my gun money on the Elcan.  

I wanted the Elcan for the SR-15 even before I bought the rifle, but I plan to give the Mk6 a fair chance to stay and have been happy with it thus far. I'll throw the Elcan on the Holland and take some pictures of it, I'll sling a couple rounds too for good measure.  I feel kind of silly playing dress up barbie with an AR but I promise to stop short of paint filling my lower markings and getting custom engraved dust covers (no offense to those that do, free country/do what you want, just not my style).  If I do eventually get a can and put together a 13.7" Holland upper I think the Elcan or Mk6 would be a good fit.

It hurts my heart each time I hear about y'all cutting up those S-EX rails, though I'll admit some of them look pretty slick.

I mean, c'mon, who's actually using the BUIS on their MK 12 once they've got an optic for it anyways?  

Looks like I need to hurry up and pick up an unmolested one quick before you guys have hacked 'em all up!

Please don't cut an ARMS #36S-EX..............I'll trade my KAC BUIS-cut for a non-cut.

Is there any differance between the ARMS #36S-EX for the AR10 platform and AR 15. I'm assuming the designated 15 units are hard to find being they are no longer made.

Length of the receiver end of the rail. You could dremel it down but you'd cut off part of the ARMS markings if that matters to you.

CHOP IT!!!

Actually, I say skip the whole thing, save the weight, and have a better solution with an LT SPR-E.

When I ran the S-EX, it looked cool, but was a really horrible system. The whole rail flexed and I could watch my cross hairs move.

Gents, anyone got leads on the KAC RAS Sling Swivel mount for the Uncle Mike's style sling swivels? As mentioned, someone nabbed the last two off O-P like Sunday/Monday before I could order one, and now I can't find em anywhere.

KAC Sling mount @ Operationparts, OOS

The only other sites listing it are also OOS, as is KAC's own site. They don't list them the same as OP does, but they sell a sling swivel conversion for QD mounts that is like $60 I really could use one of these to tie up my Mod 0 until the AEM5 is in and I can get a NDS A1 lower somehow.


EDIT:

SWM, can you get some closeups/disassembly on that adapter between the TAS-1 hook and the KAC swivel? I'll probably have to homebrew it since I don't thing mine was actually a TAS-1 UMSS.

My glass currently rides in a LT SPR 1.5 so there she will stay. Thanks. Sometimes I guess I just look for things to blow my money on.

As a short sub 10lb SPR I think the Mod-H is the ticket, for more of a recce type setup I think I'd lean towards something more along the lines of some of the rifles pictured in the short recce thread. Of course, I may just be a girly man and need to man the fuck up and deal with it, 10lbs is only 10lbs after all.

Sorry brother, I no longer own it. It is essentially just a section of web that has one end sewn into a loop. The loose end is then fed through the tri-glide, then through the Uncle Mikes swivel and back through the tri-glide again. In the first picture, I have the loose end tucked back through the loop for the HK hook.
