former Mod H, got bored with it and just sold off the legit forearm, stock and optic. Gonna go with a black mk8 Gman rail, badger unimoint and most likely a burris RT-6 for a recce look. SAM-R with go wild optic. Leather MRT sling inbound from eGay. Everything else is all cloney.

Another piece to the pre/early GWOT puzzle arrived for my M4A1. Not the correct year but thought this date was pretty cool since it's my birthday. What year was the KAC 600m rear introduced? Trying to keep this rifle all within a few years so I'm thinking from '99-'01

Also actual 3rd models were .30 cans for bolt guns, we've been mislabeling the OG Ops cans as 3rd Models for a long time. |
I’ll get some better pictures once I get the rifle out to shoot. Just got the scope mounted and leveled. Saw a bunch of these FSP recce’s with the Viper and I fell in love. I think I just want to throw a bipod on. Anyone else rocking a similar setup with a FSP upper? " />

What scopes were they using back when the MRE was a thing in the wild? What's comparable and readily available today if not going "cloney"?
I'm leaning towards a Comp M2 or something like that, but the MRE makes for such a badass recce rail. |

I can’t decide if this looks stupid or not. This RIS was left over from another build it didn’t get used on. I was going to sell it and use a G Mk16 for the 9mm but I’ve lost interest in that idea. This is just a mock up to get an idea of what it would look like. Attached File |

Well said.
Got a 511 on the way for my GWOT thing. Just gotta send the upper off to John at Retro Arm Works for one of his minty fresh pin and welds. Last thing I need then is an ECOS-C riser for the eotech. Really excited to finish this one.. |
