Keep the Elcan or go with the 553? What would you do? This is still considered a Block II, correct?

The identifying characteristic of the block II is the Daniel defense RIS II rail. Your carbine is a block 1.5 or phased replacement because it is essentially set up like the original SOPMOD rifles, only it has a block II optic. If it were me, I'd sell the Elcan, buy an ACOG with an RMR or a 553 if you so chose, and use the rest if the money on ammo or more toys. I'm not in the majority with that line if thinking ;) |

Did they ever do FDE runs of their 1.5-6x DRs? Or was it only the 1-4s? |

Snagged a 6920 off the EE so I figured I'd do some type of clone using parts I already have:
6920 (Coming) Colt 14.5" m4 barrel assembly (coming) KAC rail LMT sopmod stock TA31 acog So what am I closest to? |

That thing you have on the front there may well be functional as a sight, but this is a clone thread and that sight makes it look a lot different that the real thing. If you're not going to run the KAC, then take that thing off. Otherwise you have a nice rifle. |

With what you have, I think you'd be closest to standard issue Army M4, than a SOPMOD block 1 clone. For the block 1 clone, you would need the TA01NSN, and the SOCOM profile barrel. You could run a Matech BUIS, but the SOPMOD probably would look better with a KAC 300m BUIS. Just my opinion. |

There is just something about a Block II/PR carbine with an M3X and dual switch combo that just looks dead sexy. It's classic Block II.

Do any of the SF or SEAL boys run EOTECH G33.STS magnifiers on their BLOCK rifles? I just ordered one to go with my SU-231a, going to run it regardless but I got to thinking, I don't think I've ever seen a photo of one on a BLOCK rifle in the field. Then again I just ordered one so I'm just now interested in them, wasn't really looking before!
Also for anyone who has one, I see LaRue Tactical makes their flip to side mount for them. The mount the G33 comes with LOOKS good, but I've got a LaRue LT-755 on a PA 3x and the mount is SO solid. I'm wondering if it might be a worthwhile upgrade to get the LaRue mount for the G33? |

I've owned 4 G33's and tried virtually all of the mounts available. I think the stock mount is the shit. Knocking it by accident never seemed like a concern to me. The FTS has the perfect amount of tension. In all of the hours I've spent hunting with them, I only had one get flipped out inadvertently when it caught on a vine and yanked it. I don't have them saved, but I know there were some pics of mil guys running the G33. I remember one in particular that was US and Canadian force training together. The rifles were either Mk18's or Block I CQBR's if I remember correctly. Probably Block I CQBR's.

Alright, stealing my own picture from Page 732.
I'm thinking about moving the Insight M3X off and onto my phased replacement, along the with 553. Inbound onto my Block II would be an EXPS3, 3x Magnifier (both tan) and Surefire M952V (tan) light w/dual pressure pad SR07. Thoughts on this setup? Input appreciated before I do the move. Thanks guys. |

However, this is probably the only pic I've ever seen of one paired with a Block II in the wild - a rarity for sure. |
