There is a wheeled fsgb in the EE right now. Not for the Holland I know but since a lot of the same guys are in here that also watch the mk12 thread I thought I'd bring it to your attention. Not mine by the way. Mine is safely on my mod 0 where it will always be.

Cut a spacer/crush washer out of 5.56 brass for my Gen 1 Ace SOCOM. 5.56 brass is the perfect diameter to make a DIY spacer. The stock is no longer adjustable, but my LOP is set now for me. I don't mind a fixed stock, and this solves the problem that is SOCOM's weakness. Plus, IMHO, the spacer is aesthetically pleasing too.

Would it be just totally unacceptable to run the Reece rail and the larue mount? I'm putting a nightforce on my Holland and it's in a larue mount. I have non leverstop rings too so I could go either way. Rings and rail OR larue mount. But I really like the look of the rail and I want to use the larue mount so does anyone use both? Is it too high?

It looks like the one that was used with the rail, integral. I think it was a #38 maybe???? Obviously this is not a mod H . Just showing the rail and rear sight. 
Wait, the Mod 0's use them, don't they. Duh. |
