Picked up a Vortex for my URG-I and stuck it on here while I wait for Geissele. I like it on the CQBR!

How heavy does it feel on it. I run a T2 on mine to keep the weight down.

Welp, got humpty dumpty all put back together again last night. The upper and lower are scrubbed clean n' shiny, I swapped in a nice fresh DD barrel, installed the Mk12 with Loctite 271 (usually use 262, but that's what I had on hand), gave the 4P a nice bubble bath in the ultrasonic and got it installed w/ Rocksett; CQBR is ready to handle some bidness :D.

The old barrel went off to DD today, but being the holidays I'm guessing it'll be well after the 1st before I get anything back. So, I'm glad I had a spare barrel on hand, cause I sure as hell wouldn't want to wait that long to go shooting. Plus, I've got the carbon all softened up in the RC and that needs to be shot to clean it out ASAP. That said, even weighing it wet and without shooting it first, it's already down 15 grams from where I started (564g down to 549g) - which is a damn good sign. And the blast chamber is probably the cleanest it's been since new, lol.

So, a few more interesting bits... the gas tube was nearly fully occluded; not enough to impair function obviously, but I was surprised it was so clogged and still running fine. I'd guess close to 90% blocked. I also got a chance to take some shots of the throat and better pics from the muzzle end after giving the barrel a cleaning.

Muzzle end:









Gas port erosion (no signs of actual gas port enlargement on the top):





Throat area - looks like it's down past the CL and into bare metal:

I don’t think it’s a good deal. Wait for a used one for $100-110. Get a grip for $15.

Yeah, since it's a hotdog down a hallway, I'd imagine it is, lol. I don't have a chronograph, but if I still have it installed next time I shoot with a buddy that does maybe I'll do a few tests.

Thanks buddy! Yeah, coming up on 6 years with the CQBR. I’ve got a few other clones as well. I used to participate more on the forums but not as much anymore.

I’m really digging this scope BTW. Thanks again for the great deal

Ah, alright... I thought it looked awfully similar to a DD, but I figured they just copied it locally.

@Will816 Glad you like it. Hopefully you’ll get more use of it than I did. I needed an IR laser and got a smoking deal on a Dbal D2 so the Razor had to go.

Not super clone correct but we’re overrun with coyotes and hogs down in S. AR so I’m going to give it to them at night with the CQBR. Also picked up a Larue LT101 riser to passively shoot with my Eotech at night

I love my G33 also.  I took the MK18 deer hunting this year!  
Still, I didn't harvest anything.  Not the rifles fault, just didn't see a damn thing.
