Question for everyone, I have a block 2 upper I'm just buttoning up that needs a optic, would like to do a eotech exps3 series. Were both the exps3-0 and the exps3-2 issued/purchased or just the 3-0? Thanks in advance

I’m looking for a different look and have been kicking the idea of a Leupold MK4 1.5x5, have these ever been used or seen in the wild? I’m thinking about using a caper of extra ARMS #22 rings, or even a LaRue mount? Thoughts?

I've really enjoyed shooting and configuring this socom barrel block II. They seem to be a dime a dozen like the mk18, but there is a reason for that.

Is the milspec bolt catch the only one that's technically CC (no block 2's seen with the G Maritime bolt catch or anything)?
Is the B5 stock color here their FDE or their coyote? I know the milspec SOPMOD stock is not the same as the enhanced SOPMOD but just wondering... |

That's a PRI actually, and it's good. I like that it allows a little rise but mostly I like that it gets the elcan one slot further back where typically it would impact the rear iron.

I see a lot of mismatched colors between the lower and upper, specifically a lot of tan fore ends and uppers and black lowers and stocks and grips. Is there an actual reason for that or just a really big fluke?

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By LsuJon: No. More like they wear out an parts need replacing. This. Very few rifles blow up. Many get worn out. In my time as a contract armorer, i replaced many barrels and bolts, a few upper receivers, a bunch of railed handguards, and we had a literal box full of worn out fire control group parts(triggers, hammers, discos, etc.). The clone threads kind of make me chuckle a little as so many contract parts get used to re-build rifles, that it really isn't worth the lengths that some people go to in order to build their "perfect" clone. The shit i saw in Afghanistan made me not give two shits about what i put in my rifles. Ever seen a Marine raider tapco-fuck a MK18 Mod 1? I have. It means nothing. The only rifles i ever saw make it through a heavy use deployment without at least a barrel change were foreign issues (most notably Norwegian and french) HK416's. (Camp Marmal, Mazar-I-Sharif, 2016). Make of that what you will. |

I now have an FSB and non-FSB rail coming in from Battlehawk armory.
.and I snagged a complete non-FSB DD upper from the EE yesterday. So apparently I'm planning on changing my block 1.5ish FN into a FSB Block2. And swapping uppers on a Colt to put the DD upper onand starting a new non-FSB build. And I also have a Surefire RC2 in jail, so I'm accidentally VERY Block2 inspired these days
