On the thoroughbred train. I've got Stiller + IMUNS, going for a later Navy mod 5. What are my optic options and where can I find them? I've had no luck on the NF 5.5 and haven't found any PSRs either. Any chance Navy was using anything like an ATACR or something still being made on later mod 5s?

Unless you regularly (weekly, monthly) shoot 1000m then mk13. 300wm isn’t fun to shoot, in costs, or in recoil, I don’t care how big an ol boy ya are. It’s just not fun. |

For anyone interested, Chris at Red Bull Armory is doing an order for Mk13 Mod7 kits. All of his contact info is in the letter. No, it's not an April Fool's joke. Attached File

Originally Posted By Firejareen: I would definitely say I love both rifles. But, I enjoy my XM-3 a whole lot more. Its short, handy, deadly accurate to 700 plus with 175's, and cheaper to shoot. It has the cool factor of less than 55 made and so not a lot of people know what it is. Every time I bring it, out people are like is that one of your custom rifles and when I respond that it's a Marine Corps Sniper Rifle, they cannot believe it. As far as obtaining the parts, the XM-3 may be harder to get one or two of the parts as they are no longer made or available, so you would need to get alternatives, which is doable. Having done an XM-3, if you decide to go that route and need some assistance or just have questions feel free to hit me up. Here is a pic of my M40A5 and XM-3. Since they both shoot the 175's, and I hate loading through the gate, I made them both magazine fed, same round, same mag, same can. As some XM-3s were mag fed anyway, my builder-who built them for Iron Brigade Armory, much preferred the mag fed versions. https://i.postimg.cc/90JVszLV/XM-3-M40-A5.jpg View Quote Very nice! |

If the minimum numbers can't be met on this there will never be something like this offered up again. |

Yes, buyers will still have to contact Stiller for a receiver. Stiller can make them in batches as small as 5 and they can make them whenever they get a few orders, so the receivers are very easy to acquire. Also, you can wait a while to pick up the receiver and finish your build. Chris has storage for everything on his property, so there's no rush to complete the build (no storage fees, time limit, etc.). This allows customers to gradually do their build without any financial strain, it's truly a unique opportunity! |

Remove these items and the price for just the rifle kit is $4,450, which is a fraction of the $19,000 price for one of these rifle packages at EuroOptic! Even though it took years to complete the kit, it was much, much cheaper to build from parts. Receiver - $1,500 Chassis - $1,400 Silencer w/stamp - $1,600 Scope - $3,500 Rings - $250 Barrels, bolt heads, barrel extensions, barrel wrench - $1,000 Atlas bipod - $300 Case - $250 |
