Seriously, with all the super easy ways (that don't hurt anodizing or decent polymer gun parts) to remove krylon, it's not a yuge deal. |

or you can use citri-strip or whatever else is out there. TONS of easy ways to remove the krylon that won't damage anything underneath. As for lessons.....why wait? 35 pages worth here: rattlecan thread |

I'm whoring this on the Mk18 thread, too, but I'm really happy how this came out:
Latest revision of ADE106(E) Cerakote, "Anodized Dark Earth". It's modeled after the more gold toned RIS rails from the 2008'ish timeframe.

Yes you could beat someone to death with the Predator mount (If it was just a little bigger) if you needed too.
I did bend a wing one time from a fall, I just took it off and beat it back flat with a hammer (the red dot survived). I have used both a Doctor sight and EOTech MRDS. EOTech was total crap Doctor sight good but damn pain having to remount to replace batteries |

Having said that its 2005 technology and the price on them is still insane. I would go with a 1-6 Vortex, Trijicon whatever you get a good price on. Vortex Razor while not issued is pretty damn popular with the SF crowd. I love the VCOG I think (hope) it gets adopted by the military, will put Elcan and ACOG to rest. |

You will see trends within companys of gear being used by guys because one or two guys originally got it, others saw it and purchased the same. The VCOG unfortunately is out of the price point most SF guys are willing to spend on a 1x6 especially since Vortex offers some great deals to military members.

First post here. Is there any pics floating around of block2's in the wild with a carry handle? Or BUIS without optic? I'm saving for an optic but the cleaness of only a buis is growing on me. Also I've seen pics of a magpul mbus on mk18's but what about M4's
