baccipaintball.com  has LSO grips, most likely won't have the hole for the selector spring (easy enough to fix) but if you want it for a gangster grip it would be good to go. They have some that are already dicked up for relatively cheap. Some are missing the trapdoor also.

It’s actually not mine, it’s just in transit to it’s new home. The guy I got my long from decided to sell his short and he’s local to me so I grabbed it from him along with a ridiculously expensive Colt Canada marked norgon that I needed for my long. So it’s in the process of getting boxed up and sent to 5pt56 who is anxiously awaiting the opportunity to finger blast it!

Well good for him, I'm a long ways off on one based on the last prices I heard for a mostly complete IUR short upper. Tempted to do a US What If twist of some kind, originally considered taking an LMT MRP and milling the rails to an IUR like pattern, but I don't like how proprietary LMT's stuff is when it comes to barrels. If I could find an old Mega or Vltor monolithic to mill that might work too. Something that mimics the feel, and that I can throw a compact Ops Inc can on if I can get my hands on one anytime in the next few years.

Other thought was getting another DD Mk18 RIS II and goofing with that but that could rustle some jimmies...

Oh snap, I didn't know he started doing that. I recall Nefarious or Marvin Pitts or someone was but I recalled cost and backlog making it pretty uneconomical.

Slightly off topic: but is anyone running 16650 batteries in their lights versus 2 CR123? If so, pros and cons? I bought a massive box of 123 a few years ago and it's running low. Trying to decide to do the same or go 16650.

Agreed. The only option I'm considering is "standard" rechargable. Nothing is really wrong with 123s, just want to weigh the options. Nothing else I have runs off of either so cross compatibility isn't an issue. I might just snag a couple to see if there is any perceivable difference. Just seems logical that higher capacity, less individual units, makes more sense.

I need to get another RAS to stand in until this Armalite gets chopped. Tired of looking at a pile of parts on my bench.

Anyone got a round handguard cap they want to trade for a triangle?

One of my "boomer" buddies got back in to shooting and AR's more specifically within the past 7 years.  It was because of the Saint platform none the less.  I told him, "Now that you have an AR, check out arfcom."

He's built iirc 2-4 PSA and parts kits ar's since.  

The Saint/any entry level AR can be a nice segue in to getting in to the more "custom/niche" ar market if approached correctly.

Yeah I'm not "shitting on the poors" (hell, in the grand scheme of what I see on here, I am a poor! ) it was just their "just as good" attitude that got me. The guy was dumping on higher end manufacturers that he considered.

Rollmark isn't always indicative of quality or reliability. However, knocking something purely based on the fact that you can get "just as good" for cheaper, is always something I have to really mentally break down before agreeing/disagreeing.)

I agree with that. People may not need the added things that a KAC or Hodge gun bring to the table for their specific needs, but to say that the saint is just as good is ridiculous.

Rebel's Stowaway grip i got today on my MRE up top and my own less cool version i made out of a spare aimpoint QD mount on my 11.5 ff ras rig on the bottom. 6P did not fit inside but i just took the head off and switched it with my 660's body so i could have my red filter lens on the light. Can anyone find me a guide for connecting a wire to my click cap so i could use the buttons?
Link Posted: 10/22/2020 6:00:36 PM EST
[Last Edit: Into_the_Void] [#45]
Brother,
You get the same offer as everyone else.  I will gladly pay return shipping and ream that baby out to take a 6p.  I dicked up when I assumed the 6p was the same OD as the 660.

Glad you like it

Edit - as for wiring; it's two conductor or single conductor with a braid (coaxial/shielded).  I've never dissected a clicky tailcap though so I'm not sure what you'd run into - but I imagine there's two contacts that come together for your momentary on, you'd solder to those points.  However, I don't know what a full press constant on would do.

Edit 2x - the buttons I provided are single pole double throw, so make sure to check continuity with the button pressed - i.e. one pin is your "source" one pin is your switch and another pin is your switch.  If you use the 2 switch pins ain't nothing happening lol.
