I've been collecting parts to put together a Mk 12 build. Do I go for the Mod 0 or Holland? I've always wanted a Mod 0, but the Holland seems to do everything, but in a lighter, more compact package...

Both

But the H does seem to do all the good stuff while leaving behind the negatives of a 0 (and quite a bit cheaper to build as well).

M1 knobs to M3...can it be done? Have a lead on a decently priced 3.5-10 but it has M1 knobs. If it can be done and isn't stupidly priced, I might just snag it.

Get the serial number and call Leupold. I think that is the only way to find out.

I had emailed them last night but asked in here just in case it took forever to get a response. They said they can do it.

Awesome. I think whether they can do it or not depends on the year of manufacture, which you would verify by the serial. I could be wrong though...

He didn't say if he needed the s/n, so who knows. They said $225 and 4-6 weeks. That bumps the price up to right around where I could grab one that already has the correct turrets (and wouldn't have to wait).

If you haven't bought the Gen Juan LMT yet, use "fathersday" and get 20% off. Comes out to $94 shipped (unless you live in IL and forget they're here too )

I just sent a MK4 3-9×36mm in for the same thing. I filled out their online service form. Printed It. Stuffed both in a box. They called to get paid and I had it back in about 3 weeks total from the time I shipped it to them.

Now on the other side of the spectrum, I sent my MK6 in last week and got an email yesterday that said it would take 24 business days to fix it. That one had what looked like anodizing in the tube, seen at 1x and 2x.

For a Holland, how important is having the illuminated rectile? Found a Mk4 3.5-10 without illum for $800. Can't remember the last time I've used illum on anything else I own, but if I'm going to drop the coin I want it to be correct.

Yours is the one I contacted Leupold about converting. Was going to snag it if they could do it cheaply.

Range session yesterday, verified my zero at 100m and went out to 300m. Forgot to take pictures of the groups, but they were quite reasonable.
ARs sure are something different to handle when you're used to bolt actions. With my M40A3 replica i'm much more comfortable at the moment, well i've had that one for some months now.
Still need to correctly position the collar, but i don't have the correct allen size. 1/16" is still way too big, anyone know the correct size?

I went with the Nightforce unimount for my 3.5-15x50 F1. It is the perfect amount of cantilever to work with an A1 stock and get proper eye relief. The Badger Unimount is another option, however the rings are farther apart and some guys were having issues with not being able to push it forward enough to work with an A1 stock. If you are using a Sopmod stock then any mount should work as it adjusts further back.

This. Although I have a SOPMOD I prefer the NF over the KAC, Badger, LT111 having tried all 4.

Upper and lower are colt. Rest of it is the usual stuff.  I like the atlas bipod better than the Harris so it’s on there for my usual shooting duties.  SSA trigger though.
