Some background: I'd been planning to build an SPR for some time and finally got around to it. Originally I had planned to build a standard Mk 12 Mod 0 or Mod 1 upper with fixed stock. I had the chance to shoot a rifle similar to my final build at the BORTAC Force Mod conference in March 05 and really liked how all of the LaRue pieces fit together as a system. The rifle felt really nicely balanced and shot very well even in my novice hands with the Noveske barrel. So I set out to build my own copy of that rifle I had used. Noveske builds some very nice barrels and I have plans to build a 10.5" CQB and 16" Recce Carbine using his barrels as well as his superb Krinkov Flash Hider for the AR platform.

Very nice Owen. I've been lusting after various Noveske barrels since I first saw them this spring. I think I'm going to build a Recce with one soon--maybe during Christmas break.

I'm living on the east side now, and my school won't permit me to have any weapons. I am going through some serious withdrawal!

PS how do you like the CMC trigger?
