Nice. What is that, Rustoleum Khaki or Sand and Earth Brown? Looks very similar to the paint job on one of mine. I'd go with an H3. My .070 runs Wolf WPA to 5.56 with a T2 (4oz) and it isn't even suppressed. I just swapped in an H2 and going to do some shooting tomorrow; we'll see how it does with the Wolf WPA 55gr, but I'm guessing it'll probably cycle fine. Also, I have a Noveske 10.5" with a port somewhere in the neighborhood of the DD .082 port (I'd guess around .078), and it runs the same ammo flawlessly unsuppressed with an H3. |

FWIW, .410 seems like it’s a little low for the intended purpose, especially if you’re using an absolute CW optic. With a lower 1/3, I think either would probably work well. |

I think I'm kinda, almost, finished with my Mk18.
Colt Upper & BCG, 10.3" DD Barrel, gas block etc, with RIS II. SOCOM RC Suppressor, KAC Sights, M3X light and ATPIAL-C, TD Grip and EOTech 553. PRI gas buster charging handle. Lower is factory SBR DD Mk18 lower with some parts swapped out. Basically I started with a complete DD Mk18 SBR and swapped out parts with Colt as needed. Carolina Laser works for the UID sticker.

I use a .410" riser on all my SBRs with EOTech optics. On my 416 clone I use it with the XPS3 model, and on my ARs I use it with the EXPS model. These combinations all result in the FOV at the same height, a good height IMO. An XPS model plus 5/8ths riser on an AR will result in this same height as well. Going even a touch higher isn't uncomfortable to me, but the above is a sort of sweet spot. |

Tangentially related question for those who have experience with the 511 - what's with the variation in buttons that I see in many of the listed 511's? Some of them look fake because the backplate is so different than other Eotechs, but is that just a revision (or pre-revision model)? I know they aren't on MK18's generally, but some clones here could use one... Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By TNW:

I just thought the weird cartoon buttons were on the early generation models. Older units before they went to the newer button layout. The original bushnell holosight (pre-eotech) had the same weird buttons

I have an extra SF4P I will be using on mine. Seems like it adds so much length though. There is a guy who runs his KAC CQD can with a mams brake in his mod 0. Looks pretty good too. I have that can too but bought the surefire because I thought it looked so sharp.
