Hi CD,
Is there any block ii iteration that uses both the SF4P and the USMC KAC rear BUIS? |

Looking for a complete FSP upper if anyone has thoughts of selling.

I really like my EXPS3 but still want an ACOG for another Block, with FSP probably. What rifle bag is that? Looks nice. |

I can easily haul 2 rifles and a few handguns at least. I'd recommend looking on Amazon or somewhere besides their home site if you want to save $$$, but it's well worth it IMO. |

I really want to put a SpectreDR on an FSP build.
Can anyone comment on shooting the Elcan at 1x with a fixed front sight? A picture of the view on 1x would also be amazing if anyone is willing! Thanks all. |

I'll see about snapping a pic for you tomorrow. FSP is definitely in the image, but I look past it, so to speak.

Hazard4 makes some cool stuff but it is $$, like cloning isn't though LOL Pic thread: https://i.imgur.com/G3RK9Vf.jpg View Quote The bag is definitely well built. My preferred option if I don't feel like carrying a pelican and want something comfortable to sling on my back. |

And the only people who would care are the wrong sort of people, i.e. government types. To me the peace of mind and keeping all my firearms rights/not having to deal with big brother is well worth the low cost of a pin job. I wish we didn't have unconstitutional laws but we do. YMMV |

Plus, if for whatever reason you did get hemmed up one day, you'd be able to buy a good number of AR's with the amount of money you'd spend fighting the case that could've easily been avoided. Gun laws like these are arbitrary and stupid, but until we can repeal the NFA and abolish the ATF, it's not smart to pretend like there aren't consequences to our choices. |

View Quote But I honestly believe, especially in this day and age where you can run a sub 16'' barrel because you've got some cheesy brace, we've gone way past the line of having to give a fuck about this dumb shit. I don't have any cool pics to add, my FSB upper is hella wrong with the TA33 and surefire muzzle brake |
