*time out -- I don't particularily like the SIR -- I've had three (and none now) I was just posting a pic as requested.
If someone searches for my opinion on it....  |

LOL, sorry Kevin. I knew you had some and saw the pic so I figured you were a fan (sorry to insult you).  Would you mind sharing why you got rid of them? C4 |

How about we just post pics of SIR rails, and leave the SIR rails suck discussions for another thread?

one of the reasons i got rid of mine was cause of the weight.
-didnt have problems with running a light cause i either used the m900 or a tape switch -vertical grip again wasnt a problem since i was using the m900 -plastic bottom never gave me problems to consider it a problem -dont like the eotech so that would never give me a problem -it was the easiest freefloat i ever installed |

#46C.
 I've thought about selling it to fund a new toy...(cmp garand) but can't bring myself to do it. I like it although it needs to be tightened once in a while. I'm also not sure if I like fwd grips or not... |

This isnt true. There are a staggering 12 models of the SIR, and all of them are Bi-Level except four. The #45M, 45C, 46C and #51A2. All other SIRs are bi-level, and you can use the EoTech. If you so choose you can mount the EoTech on the #50C, #50M, #53M, #53MVR, #58M, #58mod, #59M and #59C. |

Roger Neil. It has been awhile since I have looked at the Sir system so I was not aware that they have added new models. I still think that mounting an optic over the HG's a poor idea at best which has is one of the reasons I have always stayed away from them. C4 |

I just got a SIR last year and I would not get rid of it for nothing else. I like other systems too, but the SIR cools off like nothing else. I would post pics if I had my cam.
PS Not long ago if you did'nt have a SIR you sucked around here. |

M4A2_L073754 -- nope BR made - the specific model was done for the C7/C8/M4/M16 model of dimesnions we sent them. Rather than fully hi-jack the thread www.canadiantactical.ca
They have pics and details on it. |

I have a DPMS Panther Carbine with an A.R.M.S.® #51 CV A1A2 S.I.R.® System w/ EOTech Holographic Weapon Sight -Model 512A65. Fits Great! NO MODS! My next build will include an A.R.M.S.® #58 M MOD S.I.R.® System on a DPMS AP4 Panther Carbine.

For the longest time thre was only one model that worked with the EOTech. It is good that they have canged this. It is still a bad idea IMHO to mount an optic over your HG's though. C4 |

The EOTech is actually mounted on the upper rail portion that goes over the carrying handle. That is where I prefer it. If I need to use irons for longer distance, I just look through the channel between the carrying handle and the SIR system. It is very easy to do and requires no extra effort. |

Damn I am going to get an A.R.M.S S.I.R. when i get my RRA. I just like the way ti looks and form what I have read on this thread it helps out alot for cooling purposes. Just one question there are ones made for A4 uppers right?
|

Posted: 9/21/2005 5:05:23 PM EDT

some companies call them A3 uppers, some call them A4. Either way, they are all flat tops. And yes, All SIR systems except one, are made for the flat top.

does the front sight have to be removed to install a S.I.R?
