Very nice Denny.

Still debating your 16" recon barrel or ordering a JN barrel in 12.9 for use with a can.

To add more insult to injury you had to show off the 4X
And here I thought my decision to keep saving for a PVS-14 was set in stone.

Damn thats beautiful.  One thing one the black...when the AF was chosing the color for the B2 they went with black first since it would mainly be flying at night.  What they found was that since there is always some ambient light, being all black made the B2 more noticable.  Thats why they went with very dark grey instead, FWIW

I was part of a research progect for fieldcraft and camo for sniper applications and all black rifles were horrible really -- humans *see* things using object and pattern regognition, when the rifles were done in a solid black scheme, it actually emphasised the familiar outline of the rifle and made it easier to pick out. As previously posted, this issue was noticed on all but the "darker than the inside of a cow" nights.

I can dig it.  When I get some more time, if ever, I am going to add some large grey Marpat segments to this rifle.  I needed to get it done and up to the range.

The grey Marpat type splotches will help break her up.  She is still a work in progress.

Another concern is the reflection off the objective on the NVD.  Any of you field guys know of any Killflash type devices for optics of this size?

Denny.



Try running the pattern vertically and see how that works.  This should break up the symetry axis of the rifle better.  How dark a grey?

Very nice Denny.

Now I know what a Troy silencer will look like on my build.

Speaking of which, can the collar for the Troy silencer be Duracoated?  Or would that be a bad idea (i.e. the paint will melt off)?

Well, I will tell ya a good one on me.  

I got the bright idea of parkerizing a couple.  Mike was parking some Operator barrels so I gave him a couple of the mounts to bead blast and parkerize.  Well they came out of the park tank as silver as when they went in.  Damn, they are stainless.  So I got two silver mounts

DuraCoat will not stand up to the 1000 degree temps that can be generated inside a silencer.  I do have a Lauer product call DuraHeat that is a liquid ceramic and can handle 1300 degrees and I am going to try it on one of the bead blasted suppressor mounts and see what happens.  It is a very dark grey color and should look quite nice.  It will wear off on the points where the suppressor contacts the mount, can't be avoided with any finish I know of.  

Denny



Is what you have the matte black duraheat or the HK version?  From their pics on theor website it appears black and not very dark grey.  I hope you will post pics once you are done.  How much would this cost to apply to a firearm suppressor, mount, and other barrel assembly parts like the gas block and flash hider?  Oh and the website claims 1800 degrees not 1300 from what I saw.  Thats pretty amazing.  I saw a product called Stainless Blackener 370 from Caswell (room temp stainless oxide) that I figured I could touch up the wear areas on occasion kind of like Alumininum Black on the recievers and rails.

Yeah I figured that about the contact points.  Let us know how that DuraHeat experiment goes.

Thanks.  I hope you all are enjoying the pics.  The AR is most flexable assault rifle platform ever devised.  That's why I love 'em so.

Oh also does the Magpul stock cheek riser sit too far back to use with that scope optimally or is the eye relief sufficiently long on the NV scope?  Do you find yourself wishing the cheek riser was not so far back or the scope could be mounted further rearward?

How much weight did you save getting it fluted? Does it make much difference on a 16"?
