Finally managed to finish it after a 2 month wait on the scope (Leupold's fault). Took a couple of quick pics as the sun was going down. I'm a happy dude. hanks

Man, tax money must be flowing! There have been some really nice builds completed here as of late.
This is another fine example! Nice JOB! |
|
Awesome!!!
Damn good looking rifle! I just got finished with my version of the M4gery. But..........the SPR is my next mission. |
|
I saw this rifle on the "What's gone through Adco" thread in the industry secion and was intrigued.
Can you list the specs? I've seen that particular handguard several times in the last couple of days and the barrel is interesting. |
|
You didnt see that one in the pics section, but it will be there soon I'll leave the specs to M700Police

Thanks guys!
Hey.....anyone know where I can get a nice, new A1 length stock? The A2 is maybe a tad long for a nose to the charging handle cheekweld. |
|
Cavalry Arms. I just got one and it's a LOT lighter than my friend's old A1 length stock.
For playing around, I love my new A1 but during my "bad day at the range" (see thread) I was almost wishing I had my A2 back on there. When sitting at a bench the A1 almost had me too close to the charging handle. |
|
I think one of these would top the whole thing off nicely...
Kenton Industries Tuned Trajectory Compensator Very nice rifle indeed! |
|
Einrich:
The entire rifle as pictured is somewhere in the $2500 ballpark. 3rdtk: Thanks, and I bet your right. ht: Kenton does make nice stuff. Their BDC turret conversions are primo....I just personally have no use for them right now. I do plan on sending the glass to Premier Reticles in the near future and have them install a set of M1 turrets. |
|
I wsa wondering about the price of that upper as well.
And Onslaught? What is that, drop compensator on a scope? |
|
I've been wondering, and this is as good a time as any other to ask...
What is the point in the SPR concept? What does it do that makes it better than any other AR? I assume that SP stands for "special purpose"; so what is it's special purpose? |
|
It's all here |
|
|
WOW! Very cool blaster. That's one of the better looking ARs I've seen in a while.
|
|
|
You have made my wait all the more intolerable have.
You're gun is the rage. Did you have to request the black finish on the GenIII or do they come that way now. I like it much better than the gray fiberglass look. Bomber |
|
I thought the Special Purpose of the SPR was to have a light sniper rifle that was suppressed and was capable of quick follow up shots. Why do you think the 18" bbl length was chosen? So the total length wouldn't be so long with the suppressor. I see the light sniper rifles capable of quick follow up shots, but where are the suppressors on everyones sexy SPRs?

PS. That SPR will make most guys cum in their pants just getting to shoulder it, let alone fire off a few suppressed rounds. site doesnt host |
|
bigbore, I wasn't aware that VLTOR made an A1 stock, thanks for sharing |
|
|
They are in the process of moving a facility to Nevada so all can enjoy |

Awesome rifle! I really like the Mod 0 package even though it does not seem as popular as Mod 1 clones around here. I wonder what the military uses more... Mod 0 or Mod 1? Cant say as though it would matter much to me though. Just curious. Yours looks a lot like mine, but I have no OPS Inc brake, I have a 20" fluted barrel and a different scope (M3). I just put a #40L on mine and I think its great. I see what I think is a Knights bi-pod mount on yours. Yours sits a lot lower and offers a sleeker look than the ARMS #32 throw lever mount for the bipod on mine. I do like the throw lever on the ARMS mount, but it does add some height. Anyway... great looking rifle!
|
|
Well, if you ever decide you want a real OPS brake for let me know, and also if want real 2 port "post-ban" without the suppressor threads that can be arranged too
|
|
So...how's she shoot? I'm very interested to hear how the ADCO upper shoots.
|
|
I'll know by sunday how she runs. Provided the weather holds out of course.
new-arguy: Yep....KAC bipod adapter. The ARMS unit wouldn't work for me as I switch the bipod between my bolt gun and the SPR. The ARMS unit attaches to the bipod instead of the rifle, and the bolt gun has no bottom rail for it to mount to. |
|
According to the contractor who builds SPRs for the .mil, the Mod 1 is more prevalent. Especially with the SF guys.
In fact, I think the Mod 1 is the only one being built anymore. |
|
TheRicker:
Just got an email from Steve about that. I had a buddy give me one as a gift today so I don't need it anymore....sorry. h.gif I just ordered a #40L though |
|
M700, nice SPR. Where do you shoot at? Calverton? I just missed the UPS man today and he has my DD upper from ADCO. I'm also hoping to get my Eotech 552Rev.F in about 2 weeks and then take it out to Calverton to sight the entire gun in. I have a new DPMS lower which I think I'll put a 6.8SPC or LMT MRP upper onto. Stan

|
Thanks Stan. Yep...I'm at Calverton pretty much every other weekend during the spring and summer. Stop by and say hello....I'm almost always down on the 200 line. Pretty easy to spot....look for a bunch of custom AK's and listen for my buddy's M82A1. he
