OK guys, after a series of buying cheap and flipping i have VERY cost effectively came across both the Leupold 3.5-10x40 m3 LR/t and the 2.5-8x36 m2 illum tmr (67925). I haven't finalized my build, but there is no way it will be an early mod0 so my options are open to either optic. The problem is i have to sell one to make my bank account whole. I just cant decide which one is "better". I am use to having a parallax adjustment, but im not sure how important that really is? Also the recital on in the 2.5-8 seems to be very picky with eye relief, it shifts around alot based on shift in cheek weld ( maybe that evens out at distances further than across my living room?) . Anyways, just looking for some input from guys that have shot both

No issues on the reticle or eye relief with the 2.5-8x36. That being said, I think the 3.5-10 looks best on the mod 0 and the extra magnification doesn't hurt.

Need someone to school me on these Brownells and Nodak Spud M16A1 lowers. I feel like I'm missing something obvious. They don't seem to be anything like the Colt M16A1 lower. Different font, different markings, etc. Is it just the minimalistic design to it and the "-16A1" marking that people want? I assume you can't get the pony engraved due to copyright restrictions so what's the advantage of these guys over any other mil-spec lower?

So my new barrel is still extremely tight, need to use a rubber mallet to get the PRI FSB on...and it hasn't even been duracoted black yet
would it be full retard to very lightly run some sandpaper on the interior of the FSB and take it down a hair? If it barely fits now it sure as hell won't fit with the duracoat on top so I need to figure something out |

Regarding the WOA barrel gas port, I have an 18" WOA SS barrel on my Mk 12 Mod 1 and it runs like a swiss watch no matter if the suppressor is attached or not. I have to conclude that the gas port size must therefor be fine just as it is. It's all set up as as a straight rifle gas system, nothing fancy.

Great job on that OPS 3rd mod collar. My situation is that my Mod 1 is unfinished because the clone (faux) OPS can I ordered and paid for from a board member in October of 2017 has yet to be delivered. You should hear the excuses I listen to on the phone from that guy. It's as if he finds the entire situation amusing . I can't even get a tracking number for the can he says was shipped in both 2017 and again a few weeks ago in 2019. Maybe you guys can help me out with a poll. Do I " take the beating like everyone " or start by asking if anyone else is in the same boat and out their funds. I guess it just boils down to " the way you see it " right?

ETA: I assume by clone, you don't mean faux.
NFA items don't mysteriously disappear in shipping. Do you have an S/N for it? That's the kind of shit I'd bring the ATF in for if you're being given actual S/N's and then the can never materializes. |

Faux Ops 12th can. The type made to order for every other person here. The kind that were sold in the $157 range. I am beginning to believe that it was never shipped in the first place. No tracking and a general lack of concern or care on the phone when it comes to providing a tracking number for over a year now. I paid with a USPS postal money order and mailed it into the state of Texas in October of 2017. Looks like I am S.O.L. in the leg to stand on department. My options are limited to none. I just want everyone to be aware of the situation and that it could happen to them next if it hasn't already.
