Quoted: There’s got to be a catch….it can’t be this easy! View Quote Always... from my observations in modern clones the issues are the following or a mix of them: -discontinued handguards -discontinued suppressors -unreleased optics and mounts -anodizing/cerakote (could be coupled with point above) -discontinued optics |

Quoted: LMT MRPs are kosher too, here’s a 24th STS pic: https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/405936/47AA5AC1-251B-43A9-A4DE-0E65857730BD_jpe-2349719.JPG View Quote Looks like a Specwar upper. They use a 12.5" mid gas barrel. |

It is interesting they went with a 10.3 since it seems like 11.5 is gaining popularity. Probably due to familiarity.

Quoted: So are these factory G SD with a G 10.3 barrel and G gas block and not DD like the UGRI? View Quote Rumor has it with Surefire Optimized Bolt Carrier Group, buffer spring and long-stroke, H-weight buffer ... so not technically a Geissele SD... I am still waiting on ITW proof I find it extremity odd a Tier 1 unit would follow the lead of the "white" units ( URG-I), if it is true the elite status is taking a big hit on this one... |

It isn't a URG-I. So if I put an OBC in my rifle, it is no longer a super dooty? Or what if I throw in a LMT EBCG? |

OK. Well, with your industry hook ups, I would think that you can find out what they are issuing. ETA... aren't a lot of JSOCs weapons historically "build to our spec" and then later modified by their armorers as needed or wanted by the end user? Glock, SIG, HK etc have all done this. |

Quoted: What fun would that be? @S-1 was dropping details on the DEVGRU Noveske gun waaaaaay before anything concrete came out about it. Somehow he knows. View Quote So did Chris Costa. Mentioned in an article back in 2018 or 2019 that a certain unit had selected 10.5" .300 blk, while showing his 10.5 noveske. Is S-1 Chris Costa? The plot thickens... |

View Quote I hate to be "that guy" again, but what exactly are you all going after when talking about "JSOC weapons?" JSOC is a headquarters that pulls together several different special mission units and other organizations. So JSOC weapons are whatever those individual SMUs and organizations use. It sounds like some people are talking about Delta, but want to call it "JSOC." |

Quoted: Speaking of hook ups, you could also just post your source that a certain unit is going with G rifles. View Quote I'm not asking him to post his "hook ups", but to use his sources to find out. During the last big thread about this in GD, I had a few "industry" people IM on here saying that they were enjoying the thread and that the naysayers were in for a surprise. What makes me chuckle, is why people/haters are in disbelief that CAG would use G's. They build a great rifle and CAG has used G products for years on/in their 416's (wait, are they still 416's then?). Quoted: So did Chris Costa.

When I said that I was meaning that all of the organizations under JSOC have modified/purpose built weapons. I'm just trying to figure out what to call my new 6290 EPR since I put a G H2 Super 42 spring, buffer and SSA-E in it. I may have to call Bendy Bill and ask him if my super dooty is still a SD if I put in the OBC that I ordered (not keeping my fingers crossed for it). Anyways, I'm all confused now. Have fun gents! |

Y’all are hitting part of the reason why JSOC builds are so fun - it encompasses a lot of cool stuff! Everything from tricked out comp’d 1911s to 6SM glocks to LVAWs, 416’s, tanno super duty uppers, SR25s, tOBRs and OBRs, etc. shit, if you have a badass breaching shotty, this would fit in here.

@amt115
Yes, it is. Mine is the 5/8 set screw version. Both the .410” and the 5/8 have been seen in the wild on LVAWs. |

Quoted: Unless your lower is a colt third hole with a serial number in the range that was sent to the gov, it's not going to be 100% clone. Furthermore, nobody is going to throw in barrels with a manufacture date that corresponds to gun they are cloning. View Quote for fucks sake, this nonsense shit again |

Quoted: for fucks sake, this nonsense shit again View Quote By cutting out part of the whole paragraph, I’m not sure what your issue is here. Are you in favor of excessively stringent clone requirements or against? I am most certainly on the lenient side and try to distance from some of the parts club stuffiness that can permeate other clone threads (people are and should pursue things to be as close to issued if they do choose. I would prefer to allow people to post in threads even if they didn’t go down the full rabbit hole of accurate markings on their roll mark) |
