Nice Zak. Have a little times on our hands, do we?

BTW, The TA31 you sold me is great. The more I use it, the more I like it. Thanks.

The AR10 was originally built by JP over a year ago, and then I changed a bunch of stuff: added the Magpul, added the PRI tube, replaced the trigger with a WOA 2-stage, had the barrel threaded, and finally added the MIAD.   It regularly shoots 0.5-0.75 MOA groups with Federal match.   I use it primarily for long range stuff in our monthly Sporting Rifle match in Raton NM.  (which you should come shoot with us!)

Regarding the M93A2/M93R..  the stocks and body units themselves are all M93A-generation which haven been on those guns for a long time.  I just added the A2 reinforcement brackets.     I had an incident at a recent 3Gun match which poignantly demonstrated their need, so I didn't delay in upgrading all of them.

ETA: I do like Magpul products.  They are some of the best thought out and executed gear available.

Modular components, like the XT panels and the MIAD, allow the creation of a type of "digital" camo:

EETA: The coloring on the M93A2 brackets was done myself using Norrells Moly Resin.  They come black.

New gear will most likely be at Shot Show.  Anyone know what the new Magpul stock will be called, M93BR, ect?  I saw some mod accessory/mission specific, design ideas on what was referred to as the M93B on another thread but haven't heard anything since.  Anyone have any news to leak?  Is there a buttstock sling swivel option yet?

The currently-shipping generation of Magpul stocks is named the M93A2: www.bizplaces.com/magpul/detail.asp?PRODUCT_ID=9311a
FWIW

Here are some rear sling options, e.g. for a 3 point sling:

How's the size of the MIAD (with the beavertail) compared to an ErgoGrip?  I really like the front to back thickness of the ErgoGrip, but it could actually be a little wider.  TangoDown was far too skinny for me and I ditched mine after 15 minutes of playing straight out of the box...

Thanks

The MIAD with the medium backstrap is very close to the ErgoGrip, but it's a little wider at the front and back.  I've converted all my EGs to medium MIADs.

The small backstrap MIAD is about the same front-back as the TD and A2, but it's wider in the "body" of the grip.

You're a sick man Zak.

Aimpoint on a breacher?  Are the doorknobs at 25-100 yards and moving?

Kevin,

Where'd you get that A1 removable carry handle?

Some new gear will be released at the upcoming Shot Show.  Anyone know if Magpul will be releasing a newer or "production" model MIAD to replace the presently being sold "pre production" model MIAD?  If so, what differences will there be between the two?

Looks like the one that Justin from CNC Gunsmithing made for some of us a few months back.

Zak, what kind of data are you keeping on the card that is hanging off of the -10?

Each data point is: range in yards; MOA to dial; inches windage for 10mph wind (90 degree).

Most guys have a nice print-out that they laminate.  I made this up real quick after confirming my data at our last Sporting Rifle Match in Raton

The data was right on. Guessing the wind was hard.

Where did you get the stock adaptor?  It is the best I have seen so far.

Sometimes they are very sneaky - our comms dude was using the shotty as a personal gun instead of his C8 so we wanted to give him the benifit of a bit more reach...   Plus I thought I looked pretty cool with it.  My beard was just starting to grow in and I was goign for the ruggedly handsome look

It is the A1 CH that Gif got done through Justin at CNC - it rocks - my other is with a buddy in Afghan - not a problem at all.


Stoavk adaptor is/was done by a Canadian - however I understand in talking to him he is no longer do it due to some BS from FN abotu their prior art on AR15 mounts for shotguns and M249's etc...
