I see a lot of the original Hollands have painted suppressors. What is everyone's experience with painting the aem5? Will it burn/smoke/smell after initial break in?

Will it burn/smoke/smell after initial break in? Between the paint and powder it'll stink a bit if you shoot fast strings, wouldn't be a bad idea to bring another gun/upper while the can cools. Granted I didn't sand mine but the paint chips easier than it cooks. 3-4 layers of Rustoleum on this one.

Is the current Mod H offering from PRI pretty much clone correct for what they released for duty use?

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Theodoric: Is the current Mod H offering from PRI pretty much clone correct for what they released for duty use? You'll likely get a variety of answers on that question depending on who answers and also which variation of the H you're referring to. Here's my answer: Sorta, if you're talking about the later mod H. And will depend on what you consider "clone correct". If you zoom out and look at a current production PRI Mod H upper, it'll appear very close if not identical. It's once you zoom in and start looking for the fine details that you'll see the differences. IE., PRI/USA marked pic accessory rails with beveled ends, possibly the barrel, upper receiver forge markings, short collar, etc.. But it's pretty darn close in my opinion and is a great choice. If you want to get close to the later Mod H's (see page 1 for the differences), I think the PRI upper is a great start. You can tweak the fine details from there, depending on how clone you wanna take it. And if you're not into those tiny details, then it will serve you very well and will definitely look the part - because it is the part. Just a different era of manufacturing with small differences and minor variations that have been made over the years. Edit: If you grab one, my recommendation is the Douglas barrel in FDE. Have that on mine and it's wonderful. |

Well it’s been an ongoing project for almost a year now, and I’ve made a decent amount of progress. Very close but also somehow very far from being done.
The lower is just a placeholder for the A1 GM lower from Intl Mil Co that should hopefully be ready next month. Rings are empty on account of me selling my ill mark 4 2.5-8 M1 so I could snag a TS30A2 (which should get delivered tomorrow) I just caught up on this thread today and am now realizing I should’ve gone with the FDE barrel, but oh well, I guess I’ll just have to fix it once I shoot this current one out. Still waiting on my backordered AEM5 to get delivered to capitol armory so I can start the form 4, but who knows how long that’ll take. Apart from the lever stops on the rings and the slightly incorrect SOCOM stock, I’m feeling pretty good about this build Let me know if there’s anything glaring that I’ve missed  Not sure why the pic isn’t showing up |

Just an option for you if you wanna get those awful lever stops sent back to the hell in which they came from. Aside from that, you never know what other clone parts may turn up over time. You've got most of the heavy lifting done and now it's just down to the tiny details and how far you wanna go. In my experience if you wanna get those tiny details, the biggest part of the game (aside from cold hard cash) is just having patience to wait for a specific part to circle around to you. Could take months, could take a year. Regardless, I'm sure you'll have a whole lot of fun shooting that rifle. It looks great already and you're already 99% of the way there. I'll bet that barrel is gonna serve you very well. Post some shot group info once you've gotten it out to the range and had some real fun with it  Edit: Remembered you're doing a GM lower from Russian Paint. If you've not seen any of them in person yet, be prepared to be blown away! You're gonna love that and it's gonna look completely badass on an H. |

My first shot at a mk12 build, not an A1 lower(need the find one), not clone correct leupold mk4 but is ffp, and Larue mount needs updated to correct model. But all in all I think it came out nice. Just needs some paint and deciding if I try and sell/trade the glass for more clone correct. Any constructive criticism is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
