It sounds pretty ghetto, but layers of aluminum foil on the pic rail work well to tighten up the base of the old 553 so the ARMS will grip. It’s an old trick that works with undersized rails or worn mounts. Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By interfan:

So, installing that BRT .070 port insert has kinda motivated me to do a little more work to the NQR Mod 0. Specifically, to start fixing some of the "Not Quite Right" areas, lol. I've been putting it off, but obviously I have some changes to make in that department.
I managed to find another SBM4/APF tube combo on the EE, so for starters it's KAC broom handle time :D. Slightly tempted to try painting the SBM4, but it probably wouldn't work out very well and it'll just end up being replaced with a SOPMOD anyway. 
The most obvious thing I need to address is switching the LT150 for a Wilcox, so that's getting ordered ASAP. Other planned changes include an SR07 for the M300 and possibly ditching the Gear Sector in favor of the stock mount - there is something about the way the M300 sits alongside the FSB I'm not sure I entirely like. I'm also thinking about swapping in my extra Gas Buster, but I've kinda been hanging on to that until I get to do some real testing of the Raptor-SD vs. GB when suppressed. I wouldn't want to run the FDE GB in this without painting it, so I'll likely hold off on that for now. Of course, the 10.5" barrel is an issue, but I've decided to keep it until it needs replacing, so that's not going anywhere in the short term. Lastly, I'm going to go ahead and get an F1 sent off for this lower. I was going to wait until I had a Colt or 80% lower to F1, but I think I might just go ahead with what I have now - especially with the idiotic proposed legislation to raise the tax from $200 to $500 in the pipeline. It's not that I think it will pass necessarily - although with the current environment of hysteria you never know - it's just a good reason to go ahead now instead of waiting. Speaking of Wilcox mounts, anyone know of a source for less than $112 shipped? I'm thinking about backordering one from Brownells while they are offering 7% cash back with AJ, but wanted to check if anyone knew of a better deal. ETA: Nevermind on a source for a Wilcox mount, almost the moment I posted that I found one on the EE, lol. Came with an LMT BUIS that I don't need, but that's fine. |

Not a bad day today. The mailbox was stuffed when I got home. Had a colt fiber lite (n1), colt complete bcg, bikini for my Acog, and DD ris barrel nut wrench. Just waitin on a new standard barrel nut wrench to arrive and I'll be in business with my mod1. I have an upper ready to go for my cutdown m4 ris, but I'm still in the market for a mk18 ris ii Fde. One offer I had fell through not too long ago and the last one I had my eye on, sold. If anyone is lookin to move one, msg me. I'll take anything, new, used, beat to hell (priced accordingly of course). Id kinda like to find a more used one since I plan to paint. I know if I get a newer one I'll end up getting 2, one kept natural Fde, and one to paint.

Quote HistoryNice. I definitely can see it better now. How do you like havin the aimpoint on an offset? Does it feel bulky at all? It also feels pretty natural to transition to offset back ups. The ta31-Ecos is what I have set up currently and with some practice it becomes fairly easy to transition between 4x and cqb, but it's not as natural as the pivot to offset imo.

Got shipment notification for my FDE Elcan 1-4x 556 - Kerif custom ordered one for me with the old style battery
 With used ones going for $1800-2000 I figured why not just spend a bit more and get a new one. Had one before and gave it up, and have regretted it ever since.

Not only that, but they shipped one item USPS - scheduled to arrive Monday, 3/19, and the other FedEx - scheduled to arrive Wednesday, 3/21. Here's the best part: my father-in-law was visiting and wanted to buy two rifle scopes locally. I found them on Optics Planet for significantly cheaper and we used a 12% off coupon found here on ARFcom.

Sorry if this is the wrong place to post, I have read around 800 pages of this thread over last years deployment and I know people get touchy about certain subjects that aren't 100% clone. So, since I don't have a strict clone I don't post much here. I am posting because I am trying to get an adjustable gas block for my Mk18 upper for my NT4 that is waiting on form 4. I was looking at the odin works but not sure if the hump for the set screw will fit under the rail. I would love a micromoa but as they are no longer made, I don't want to shell out $200 for some random guy's used one. I know a lot of you have the same rail, barrel, and suppressor and was wondering what you guys have tried, other than buying a whole new barrel to chop down for a smaller gas port. Unless anyone wants to let a govnah go for a decent price. Tiny, if this post is no good here, feel free to delete it. Sorry, I really do admire your guys' rifles, I am just not addicted enough(yet/thankfully) to form 1 a colt lower to replace my already sbr'd LMT, or swap out my ta31h for the correct reticle even though I have used an H on an issued m4 but not a cqbr. Thanks in advanced. Rifle in question so you can see it is somewhat close to a clone, but not 100% there. My rifle

Well, I finally have it. After a journey fraught with danger, hardship and unnecessary waiting... can you guys say: Gear Sector Slim Scout mount in FDE? :D! It only took about 3 months, a false start with a backordered regular GS mount and ordering from 3 different places, but it arrived Saturday. Gotta say, it's pretty snazzy.
Also, speaking of the BRT insert, I got to test mine out in the desert yesterday and was very pleased with the results. The old .080 port in my Noveske 10.5" was an annoying bitch and still not to my liking even with an H3 and Sprinco Red; I'm happy to report that now with the .070 insert, an H3 and standard carbine spring it shoots almost exactly like my .070 CQBR. I ran Wolf WPA 55gr, Wolf WPA 62gr HP and some 5.56 Hornady Black SBR 75gr all with zero issues. The felt recoil and ejection pattern was almost an exact mirror of my DD 10.3 .070, so I'd say mission accomplished :D. |

The SOCOM RC should be around April/May, the F1 on the lower should be around July assuming the average 6 month wait times on individual approvals holds. The check was cashed 01/17/18 on the F1. Maybe I will luck out and be one of those guys that gets a 4 month approval, but I doubt it :\. |

Almost tempted to throw my Colt N1 on it... probably will initially just for the sake of technicality - that's actually the OAL I used on the F1. Not to say I don't have a SOPMOD ready to go as well :D. And, unfortunately, that won't be happening for a few more months. The SOCOM RC should be around April/May, the F1 on the lower should be around July assuming the average 6 month wait times on individual approvals holds. The check was cashed 01/17/18 on the F1. Maybe I will luck out and be one of those guys that gets a 4 month approval, but I doubt it :\. Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By krdt:

Gotta say, it's pretty snazzy. http://wkd.site.nfoservers.com/CQBR/CQBR.GS.070-02.jpg http://wkd.site.nfoservers.com/CQBR/CQBR.GS.Slim-01.jpg Also, speaking of the BRT insert, I got to test mine out in the desert yesterday and was very pleased with the results. The old .080 port in my Noveske 10.5" was an annoying bitch and still not to my liking even with an H3 and Sprinco Red; I'm happy to report that now with the .070 insert, an H3 and standard carbine spring it shoots almost exactly like my .070 CQBR. I ran Wolf WPA 55gr, Wolf WPA 62gr HP and some 5.56 Hornady Black SBR 75gr all with zero issues. The felt recoil and ejection pattern was almost an exact mirror of my DD 10.3 .070, so I'd say mission accomplished :D.
I am all over that insert! We are moving, so I have to wait until I set up the gun room in the new house
When is your Form 1 coming for that lower!?!? I keep watching for you to put a Sopmod on that bitch! And, unfortunately, that won't be happening for a few more months. The SOCOM RC should be around April/May, the F1 on the lower should be around July assuming the average 6 month wait times on individual approvals holds. The check was cashed 01/17/18 on the F1. Maybe I will luck out and be one of those guys that gets a 4 month approval, but I doubt it :\. I like the N1, though. Works great with a C7 or irons. Fingers crossed, you may be lucky! I think I still hold the record for the longest F1 wait time in the MK18 thread |

Hey guys, so I remember seeing in this thread where to get the UID stickers, but for the life of me, I can't find that post again.
Got any leads? I just finally got a mk18 upper and I'm collecting stuff while I wait for it to arrive. Thanks! |
