All you did was build the upper, yes? Still, good to see you puttin them new skillz to work. What'd you end up doing for a receiver block when you installed the barrel and the LaRue?

Very, Very nice!

You've got one beautiful weapon there!

Yeah, I'd already swapped stocks and grips a couple of weeks ago. So all I had to do yesterday evening was piece the upper assembly together. It wasn't a bad ordeal at all either. Two strikes to each of the taper pins and they dropped right out (without any Kroil either). Believe it or not, I used the $28 flat action block from ADCO that the upper pins to. I got tired of waiting for my Bushmaster action block to arrive (and it arrived today). Not to mention that I would have had to dremel the front of the Bushmaster block for a LaRue install.

i think both are nice guns, the one with the happy position on the selector is a bit more desireable....

Hey, I had it lying around, so I mounted it.

I've never used a sling anyhow.

I'm going to drive to you to get that barrel.

Nice work amigo.

Nice!

how does the can attach? threaded on there? or some kind of QD?

It's a thread mount. A quick-detach was another $130, and I really couldn't find a personal need for installing it or removing it quickly. That savings alone equaled the cost of my optic mount and cantilever spacer.

Very nice!

How are you liking your LaRue Rail?
Any Play?

Very nice set ups guys, my computer is shorting out from all of the drool!

cool.

Just curious since I have an LMT upper (lower on order, ships tomorrow) so I pulled off the A2 FH and put on a gem-tech bi-lock and started the ATF paperwork. I figure it was only $80 for the bi-lock and the can will be a totally different purchase months down the road... so I won't even notice. :D

I haven't had time to shoot this configuration yet, but everything feels rock solid from buttstock to muzzle. ZERO play in neither the LMT SOPMOD stock nor the LaRue 7.0.
