Not to mention the MK12 Mod1 needs a few pieces for me to be satisfied. (Docter, KAC BUIS)

Still need suppressors for both the H and Mod1.

Sucks to be a broke gun nerd.

At least I gave up on first gen Camaros and muscle cars in general, those bitches aren't cheap anymore either.

I started the XM177E2 about two years before signing up here while still a lurker.

I’ve been drooling over H’s for a while now. I’m trying so hard to not pull the trigger on a pri H upper. Not sure I can make it through this sale.

Any reason to not buy a factory PRI H upper? Seems like a decent deal especially with a Douglas barrel.

I don't want to hurt the resale value.

BTW, I noticed some people mentioning the poop brown color of the SOPMOD stocks. This contract overrun stock looks more chocolate colored compared to my other SOPMOD and Bravo stocks.

Edit: I just figured out that it does look like my coyote brown issued boots... when they get soaked. Maybe they should call it wet coyote brown.

badger works, 1.4", 20moa.

22m for recce rail. recce rail and 22m isnt cheap and more points of error.

My BA doesn't seem to enjoy 77's either. 193 and 855 shoot just about as good as the IMI and Magtech I stock. Did a few tweaks to it a while back, but haven't been able to get back out and see what it does.
