As an FFL / SOT, I would definitely do 3rd hold lowers as well DIAS.
3rd hole for whatever typical M16 setups and DIAS for hosts you want to keep after dropping SOT or are unsure if you want to keep.
A few more examples I forgot to mention are like the Colt 901, DPMS G2 and Sig MPX. The first two are not made anymore and then there is the Sig MPX which also works with a DIAS with very little work.
Since the first two aren't made anymore, you may not want to drill the 3rd hole and FA 308 may not be all that desireable either. That is the case for me. Kind of a novelty and I wanted to see how smooth I could get it and also curious on tuning the cyclic rate. 475 RPM unsuppressed and 508 RPM suppressed with adjustable gas block for those that are curious.
When I drop the FFL/SOT, I'll keep the 308 but no real interest in running them in FA anymore.
On the Sig MPX, I ended up hating the platform and so glad I didn't drill it. Gassy, loud and cyclic rate is too fast. (I like all my MG's to run in the 600's to 700's unless we are talking 22LR where I just care about reliability).
MPX cyclic rate below. I removed the post same DIAS and had a bidding war on Gunbroker to get rid of it. Sure, I could have drilled it but I don't think I would have gotten the money I got on Gunbroker and you have a much larger buyers market if not drilling the hole for this gun.
