Here's my 13.7 cut down from Marvin Pitts with a MAMs pinned to 16.1".  Changes the whole feel of the rifle.  Geissele trigger and all the usual fixins:

That's pretty damn awesome that you can get it so close to CQC length w/o having to go NFA.  Nice job.  I dig it.

Cheers

I follow your stuff in the clone threads, so I take your opinion seriously.  I appreciate it.

The combo of the MAMs and the shorter barrel length (with stock gas screw) make the recoil EVEN TAMER than the stock 16" with PWS brake.  It's flipping amazing and the balance is sweet.  I picked up a used MAMs in the EE for $200 shipped a few years ago.

Agreed, that looks perfect!  I'm trying to get into the 17 game this year.  Have a few KAC Vault items I have to get first.

How long was the turnaround from Marvin? This has seriously piqued my interest.

Thanks for the compliment.  So does IL allow suppressors?  Once of the new KAC suppressors would be a nice addition to the package.

Geez.  I sent in an SR15 barrel to get cut and pinned and also had him ball dimple it at the same time.  Took about 3 months.  lol  Did it in winter, though.

No suppressor in IL, and SBRs are a pain in the arse.

Just got my 16 about a week ago. Finally got the rail changed out, that bottom rail screw was a real battle.

Trying to decide on an optic at this point, looking at a vortex razor uh-1, DI optical fc-1 (I have a slight astigmatism and heard this was good for that), an acog ta44 w/ acss recticle. That last one is double the price of the others but if it’s worth it I’d be willing to pay for it. Any suggestions are welcome!

Here’s how it looks at the moment:

No. That is the FN ECP flash suppressor on a 13" barrel.

Not too bad of a pain.
Did 3 in '16 that took 8mo, and 1 in '17 that took 5mo.
8mo wait was including an extra mo for a clerical error on my part.

Anyone in here chopped and pinned a Surefire muzzle device – such as the Warcomp – onto their 17S? How do you like it?

Awesome. Picture? Also, I assume it doesn't become unmanageable with the shorter barrel and no comp? Seems like a nice "battle rifle" setup.

I’m planning on doing either the 3P or Warcomp when i get mine, sadly the muzzle device is like 0.25 inches short of working on the 13” barrel so gotta do p&w

Killer pair. Is your 17 an SBR or is the FN flash hider long enough to pin on a 13" barrel? I imagine you could get pretty close to 13" by cutting/pinning one of those.

I went back to the ugg boot and I feel a little less push with the gun. Plus, I’m paranoid about damage from the metal on metal contact of the KDG stock. Has anyone experienced that or am I worrying about nothing?

I picked up a 16 and a barrel separately for a pretty good price altogether and I gotta say, it’s a very nice shooting rifle. Almost feels like an airsoft gun.
