THE SECOND GENERATION ARMS #38 SPR RAILS USED IN THE MK 12 MOD 0 ARE ALL GONE. UNLESS YOU CAN COME UP WITH ONE OR ARMS BUILDS SOME MORE, THERE WON'T BE ANYMORE MK 12 MOD 0 CLONE FOR YOU.

NOW, THERE ARE STILL FIRST GENERATION ARMS #38 SPR RAILS AVAILABLE, AND EARLY TYPE PRI FORENDS AS USED FOR THE FIRST SPR'S, BUT NONE OF THE EARLY STYLE PRI FLIP UP FRONT SIGHTS WITH THE ROTARY KNOB ELEVATION ADJUSTMENT ARE AVAILABLE. SO IF BUILDING A CLONE OF THE FIRST SPR FORMAT, YOU'D HAVE TO USE A LATE MODEL PRI FRONT SIGHT.

THEN, THERE'S THE GENERAL SHORTAGE OF OPS INC 2-PORT MILITARY BRAKES AND COLLARS. BUT WE STILL HAVE A COUPLE. HOPEFULLY, WE'LL BE ABLE TO COME UP WITH SOME MORE.

FORTUNATELY, OTHER THAN THE OPS INC BRAKE & BARREL COLLAR, WE CAN GET ALL OF THE COMPONENTS USED TO MAKE THE MK 12 MOD 1 VERSION, SHOWN BELOW:

NO, THE SCOPE SHOWN IS NOT YET AVAILABLE.

PLUS, WE HAVE WHAT YOU MIGHT CALL A "MK 12 MOD 2" UPPER BUILT UP TO USE THE ARMS #59 RIFLE SIR. HOWEVER, OUR LAST #59 WAS LET GO TO A MILITARY USER WHOSE NEEDS ECLIPSED OUR OWN. BUT AS SOON AS ARMS BUILDS SOME MORE, THIS UPPER WILL BE READY TO GO OUT THE DOOR. HERE'S WHAT IT LOOKED LIKE BEFORE THE #59 WAS YANKED OFF:

MY PERSONAL CHOICE? WHATEVER SHOOTS BEST. THAT WOULD BE RAPTOR22'S MOD 0 THAT SHOT 0.36 MOA!!! BUT SINCE ALL OF OUR SPR UPPERS DO SUB-MOA, THE WEAK LINK IN THE EQUATION SEEMS TO BE ME OR YOU, THE SHOOTER.
