Very nice with the T1. I've been wanting to shoot one of those back-to-back with kinda M2 to see how much more awesome the new Aimpoints are. And you got a sexy BFG sling on there too. That's almost exactly like a build I just finished except my rear sling mount is on the buffer tube. Did you locktite and/or stake the buffer tube castle nut?

Are you going to chrony your ammo? i have never used BL-C (2) but researched it a little and would like to see how it preforms.

 

 

Oh yes. I chrono all new loads. All I've got to go on so far is data from multiple reloading manuals and a ballistics calculator. They'll get a full run-down out in the field before going into mass production.

LMT is more than just good. Being a major supplier to SOCOM and the UK Ministry of Defense now, is more than icing on the cake. I have an LMT lower on order and plan to build another AR for myself to add to my other LMT:

Love my MRP, even if she's a fat pig. I plan to ditch the Mark 4 CQ/T sometime soon though and running it on my M1A at some point.

O Ok i understand that. i was looking at the Magpul gen 2's front and rear for when i build my sks. noticed a lot of these with red dots between figured they had to somehow work.

 

I think you see a lot of this because they are the cheapest and people who know they are going to put on optics get them to save there money for optics. thats what i did, the only time i've used my iron sights was to sight them in, then EOTech from then on. If i knew i was going into a situation other then the range i would purchase better back ups.
