The funny thing is he gave me those many disclaimers. Then I gave squirell the many disclaimers when I finally sent it to him. Then Stoner gave squirrel many disclaimers. There's probably 3 pages worth of stoner 4P disclaimers.

It's like seeing someone squat 405, but only go one inch, I give more respect to the person that squats all the way with proper form but it's only 135. More respect to no PEQ at than a placeholder PEQ. But that's just me, and with that being said, mine is nowhere near correct. Uh oh... What happened?

But yeah anybody buying one I would highly recommend asking for pics of the unit itself as well as shots of vis laser, IR laser, and IR illum activated. Those 4 things check out you're probably good. Or buy a class 1 unit with warrantee of course. Just know they are massively underpowered compared to a -15. Although I hear the C1 MAWL is comparable, not sure how that works but supposedly it does.

So, I've pretty much decided to do a new Block II CQBR instead of a URGI 10.3" build.
Gonna use the new CQBR as host for the NT4 I'll be getting and leave my current Block II the way it is. After giving it some thought, I realized that deep down what I really wanted was a pair of twin CQBRs - one with an NT4 and one with an RC :D. Slowly starting to collect the parts. Speaking of which, I'm starting to wonder if USPS lost the black Gas Buster I ordered. The last update was 3 days ago, and it doesn't even update the "in transit" status with the current date anymore. It's been stuck at "January 8th, In Transit" and hasn't changed. Can't be having my new Gas Buster get lost this early in the game :\. |

I found a RIS II so the Block II is a go! Expect more pictures and dumb questions moving forward!
Speaking of dumb questions...is it possible to do a Block II but still use the KAC M4QD instead of the 4 prong? The reason I ask is I was planning on buying a NT4 for my Mod 0 and my KAC CQBR anyways. If the answer is NO then I guess I'll by a SOCOM RC too.

Otherwise, I want to keep them as similar as possible... I like the option of being able to run them more or less interchangeably and also trade them out when shooting. Spread the abuse out a little bit ;p. And, holy shit... my Gas Buster just showed up in Moreno Valley, CA. This is unacceptable... now it's going to have communist cooties on it :\. Being able to run a G33 on both is pretty appealing as well; magnification when I want it and otherwise lighter weight. I figured another EXPS3 or maybe a 553 (probably EXPS). |

At this point, I plan to set it up very close to my current build with a few minor variations - a lighter shade/more bronze RIS II and probably a SOPMOD for a lil variety (not certain on that, we'll see how it balances with an N1). I might even go crazy and run an M600DF instead of M300C - sucker is already going to be heavy with the NT4 and SOPMOD, so I might as well go for more lumens. Also might go with a non-QD TD Stubby.

Either return the ones I don't want or part them out and keep a spare barrel or two. We'll see what comes along in the next little while. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By krdt: What appeared to be a pretty light colored one popped up not too long ago.

Color seemed nice, though. There is also one now being advertised as "more bronze" for $415. If I have to, I'll buy 2 or 3 URGs from Brownells and pick the best one :\.

For the cost of another CQBR that's identical why not delve into NVG's and a PEQ? You have literally the best land nearby for it unlike city peasants like myself. Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By eMc9001:

Also, the thought of another CQBR with NT4 just gives me bigger tingles than what I could realistically afford for NV given the same amount. I figure I need a minimum of $6-7k worth of investment to actually get what I want, maybe more. There are also political considerations; if I want another CQBR, I really couldn't pick a better time with prices the way they are. No guarantee how long the current market will last. |

I figure worst-case I can find one a few shades lighter and with some hints of bronze to begin with, and after a few years of use, it'll be a good bit lighter. Originally Posted By MILSPEC556:

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By smitty_007: Okay, that’s what I was thinking...I thought I was going crazy.  Attached FileIs this actually correct? The military moved to a mid-length system on their new 10.3” uppers? So this is another way the URGI uppers differ from the Mk18... |
