That thing looks awesome!
Great minds think alike! I've been working on something almost the same for the last couple of months, the build thread is here. I'll have to take some pictures and update it because its now shootable. The 14.5" barrel is the right ratio for the mid length PRI tube, I went with the 16" because this is my first AR and I was anxious to shoot it. I didn't want to deal with the added time and expense of an SBR. I don't have the front or rear sight yet and the Ops 12th and collar are a long ways out. I'm going to decide on a scope and figure out the SPR rail first, then work on the other parts. What optics are you thinking about? Stick with the MR/T 2.5-8x or scale it back for the 14.5" upper? I don't know how you feel about the 1-4x type scopes but it could be a good fit. |

I have experience with NF but I like the smaller size of the pitbull. |

Really like those mods to the CTR stock. How heavy do all those attachments make it? I'm assuming less than a PRS still I dont have the exact weight with RISR and Pod on it. It is a little heavier but it doesnt feel cumbersome, to me it seems to add balance to the rifle with the barrel choice I used. It is no where close to the weight of a PRS. |
