12.5" 6.8SPC noveske with all the usual goodies. Just need to trade out the SD3G trigger for an SD-E and it'll be perfect.

Nice!
Lets talk about that SD3G. PM inbound.

ETA - I built the rattle canned rifle for what I guess you guys are deeming mini recce. Still shopping for an optic, so I left the carrying handle on it for now. It will most likely end up with a 1-4, just holding out for a deal. Pinned 14.5. The other one is a pinned 14.5 for my wife with a Bushnell 1-4. Shoots great, and accruate.

I think in a combat situation I could deal with it, but plinking around, I'm wearing earpro. And that's an 18" barrel, mind you. I used the can on my carbine for a few rounds but I used earpro and see no good reason not to. And that can has more volume than some of these little shorties you guys are using, so there's that.

YMMV and all that.

Wow when I got to try out my aem5 I found it comfortable with no ear pro. Then again my hearing is pretty terrible. Says the Army.

Hearing damage doesn't mean a person is suddenly deaf, it means the ability to detect certain frequencies or volumes has degraded.

Too much rock music.  I used to play in bands and around loud music and I'm pretty certain my ears are not what they could be.  But it was worth it.  

I have no clue about rifles with suppressors and hearing.  I just know whenever I've shot deer my hearing instantly goes to crap when the first round goes off.  Doesn't necessarily go away, you just get the ringing for a while.  LOL.

I don't know about the music. I think it was more like MG fire and explosions

 



My civilian job is hard on the ears too. Gotta love this tinnitis banging in my ears while out hunting.




Anyways, back on track- it is probably a good idea to always use ear pro.

On these, is a Harris bipod on an Arms mount good to go?

I only need a barrel for the time being...  sometime next year I'll get a Primary Arms 1-6x for it.

Just 100 yards today which is the longest distance at my range.

In December I'll be able to get it out to 300-400.

My iPotato pics from today's range session with Finslayer83. The bipod is his but I'll be getting one soon for my own rifle.

The scope and mount just came in Thursday, a Primary Arms Gen 2 1-6 ACSS reticle variable, and a Burris PEPR non-QD mount. Once I got it figured out how to zero the glass, anything inside the maximum range we had, 100 yards, was fair game. Turning clay pigeons into fragments, then turning the fragments into powder, were no problem. Ammo was the ultra-cheap Tulammo 55gr. steel cased ammunition, and it all ran without incident. I ran two mags of Federal M855 green-tip to confirm zero with this round, but I'm saving the rest for a rainy day.

All in all, it was a great day at the range. Finslayer83 was his usual patient self, answering my stupid questions about zeroing my scope. To end the day we shot our Glock 34s in the pistol pit, 150 trouble-free rounds through my brand-new Gen4 G34.

Trijicon TR24 1-4x, the light is semi integrated into the the front sight keeping completely out of the way. It's lower profile, no need for an additional mount, and It's more comfy for me in the 12'o clock.

That is my favorite receiver set to date. It balances out really well with a 14.5" or shorter barrel. I'd post pics of mine here; but instead of the Recce or Mini-Recce route I went with Magpul furniture, a 14.5" 1 in 9 twist Windham Weaponry (Green Mountain) barrel with standard FSB, an ALG NB trigger, complete Spikes lower build kit, AIM NB BCG with a TLR-1S... It's my favorite rifle in the company of complete Spikes, an Adcor Defense, and an old Colt. That's going to be a sweet build you have there brother!

Nice.

Specs?

ETA - is that an LT745 mount? I'm trying to figure out how it looks like an LT104, but the levers are on the opposite side.

ETA2 - yeah, it has gotta be an LT745. Any particular reason why you opted for a 10 or 20 MOA mount with a 10x optic on a 5.56? Just curious.

Damn this thread and that Kyle Defoor rifle!  



Just need to finish it up with some paint......



I have a BiPod I can toss on it but I really dig how light weight it is like this!



Does anyone know where I can pickup a Cat Tail for the NF 2.5-10?

Thanks!

Ryan-
It is the 745 w built in 10moa.  It's usually on my mk17 clone, it doesn't need the extra moa but I had the mount laying around and decided to run it because the levers are on the opposite side of the charging handle. No more busted knuckles

Pulled it off the scar to mock this up....

Specs-
BCM 11.5 LW Upper
5.56 Socom Mini
LDI CQBL
Surefire 300v
NF 2.5-10x24 - LT745 mount
Insight MRDS in a LMT offset mount
Colt 6933 lower w H3 Buffer and Sprinco Blue (testing a red tonight)

Man, what a great day.  Since winter has decided to avoid Alaska for the time being, we get to shoot more

This 12.5 Noveske is the sweetest little rifle in my inventory, right now.  With full power ammo, an H buffer, and a Wolff XP, it has turned in to the softest shooting 5.56 I have.

I have the Razor dialed in at 100, and it prints clovers off a bag all damn day long.  I cannot wait for my can.

It is the only way I could be happier with this rifle.

Looks good man. I can't wait to get a lower SBR'd so I can get a 11.5-12.5".

12.5" 6.8SPC noveske with all the usual goodies. Just need to trade out the SD3G trigger for an SD-E and it'll be perfect.

How do you and Alaska like the Razor 1-6x?  I'm thinking of picking one up for my 14.5".

Jeff I am enjoying it more an more every time I go.  The forgiving eyebox is making me love it.  We are going to a pit next week to shoot multiple targets, staggered from a bench and prone.  I might throw a bipod on the little one for this.  Trying to get out of my 100-150 comfort zone.

I had some buyer's remorse over the weight.  That is long gone.  This is a great optic, and with both eyes open at 1x, it is the closest I own to 1x RDS.

The 11.5 has a yhm FH/qd mount with a 5.56 phantom attached.

The 14.5 (ironhandjohn's) has a yhm phantom on it.

Just updated mine slightly. Added a Surefire X300U on a gearsector mount, threw a few spare CR123A's in the grip and added a BCM keymod KAG up front.

I thought so. I'm liking YHM muzzle devices more and more these days. They work well at dusk and they are half the price of the Smith Enterprise flash hiders I'm so fond of...

From past experience, leave it alone or you'll regret it.

Build another upper if you want something else.

I've tried to see things from the liberal point of view ... but I'm just not flexible enough to get my head up my ass.

I have cut several off just wait until your rail comes in and make sure you get in that works with standard barrel nut

Troy vtac and alpha are 2 good choices

Agreed. Just build a new upper from scratch.
