RIS ii should be available lots of places soon. My sales rep said they should have a shipment 4-6 weeks.

Neither items are fake
The G33 is fake. Color is way too gold.

The mount I am not sure but the color is very close to an airsoft brand. I for one wouldn't fork over the cash for the FTS and riser.

I picked one up this morning as soon as I got the email from AU.

I sold off my CQBR Block II Upper awhile back to upgrade to a 11.5” KAC SR15 Mod 2, and I’ve started missing my old clone.

Think this one is going to be a Block I or PR. Early GWOT best GWOT.

I have seen only Colt or FN barrels on MARSOC, SEAL, AFSOC and USASOC guns.  Majority being Colt.  Have never seen a DD marked upper either.  DD was supposed to get a contract for 14.5" mid length gas for the USASOC URGI.  Those haven't been fielded yet.  So, we'll see if that ever happens.

I heard there was a hold up at CRANE on the URG-I's due to Mk12 GB clearance. (Or lack thereof)

Unsure if truth, but matches the delay.

Only supplier I've seen since 14' - Coronet Machinery Corp.  These are used on the Mk12 series, Mk18 Mod 1 and URGs both 10.3" and 14.5".  There seems to be about half dozen other suppliers proving this commercially to spec ie DD.

Moved the 3x Carl G scope to another project that isn't quite ready yet but deals with a FN 20" BBL.  Moved the T1 ECOS from Mk18 Mod 0 to the URG.  On the Mk18 Mod 0 added a carrying handle since its just irons now.

Non-QD TD is by far the tightest VFG I've ever used for the RIS II.  If I forget to lube the rails and need to adjust, or take it off for whatever reason, the thing practically needs a mallet to slide at all.  And that's with the clips to hold down the leaf springs.  Probably 10x the pain in the ass to adjust it if you don't have both of those clips on you.

SOCOM issues the T1 Enhanced Combat Optical Sight-Optimizied to be mounted along side a rifle scope for close quarters.  Comes with offset mount.  I just use a riser on the AR.

Yep mentioned a few times above, saves a bit over the other site mentioned (that used to be known as "shall not be named" lol.)  AU has a shady rep though and I prefer not to spend any money there unless absolutely necessary.  They are right up there with Botach imo.

I wasn't looking for one personally, but was referring to the guy who always seems to buy one when they are available, waits a few weeks, and then lists it in the EE fro $700 looking for a desperate sucker.

I think as long as you know what you're getting yourself into, it's ok to buy from them.

I've spent a few grand with them, buying a Surefire light, SOCOM RC, and a Colt SOCOM barrel.

Essentially, you're getting one of the better deals for their items, but don't expect to receive them quickly. All of mine took several days to process, and then a week or so to ship.

I would do business with them again because I'm patient, but don't expect to receive your items quickly.

Nothing special at all. The guy selling them had a previous ad selling two used EXPS3s and a tano G33. Not realizing what it was worth, he had the G33 listed for $375; I take it people messaged him offers in excess of $1k. Seemingly, that led him to the conclusion he'd also underpriced his EXPS3s. A little while later, we have an ad with two of them for $1,000+, lol. Guess he hasn't realized his mistake yet.

What good is a BDC if the ballistics do to different loads, ie M855A1 and Mk262 out of either 14.5" or 10.3" barrel when the BDC was calibrated for M855 out of a 20"?  Whatever you have, hit the range and know your drops.

It's pretty simple to tell a fake, however you can't go by color anymore.  Just look at the font of the "eotech" on the rubber.  If the letters are thin and spaced out, it's a fake.

If spooled=spoolindawg on IG, his shit is impressive and it's likely not a fake.
