Looks good. I'm still waiting on TNVC to try and fix the mess of where in the hell mine is. Kristen really hooked me up. I didn't want it sitting in limbo when I was away during the weekend and I paid a bit more to get it on Saturday. Completely worth paying the extra to me. Ive had too many items go missing with FEDEX/UPS over the years during the Christmas season. Wasn't letting it happen to this guy. Its worth the wait after using it. I honestly thought I would be disappointed from the performance. I had a full power laser before purchasing this one. Its more powerful than my PEQ2a was on the low setting which is nice. The diffuser actually makes the IR laser useful for targeting without too much bloom of your NODs
I honestly thought I would regret getting rid of my full power for one of these sissy low power lasers. No regrets. Its plenty useful out to TNVCs advertised distances which is all I feel comfy engaging out in complete darkness using lasers |

I've been thinking about trying out a magnifier, so I may leave the Matech on, for a while. I'm using a T1, now, so I don't honestly feel the need to have BUIS on it. I've got plans to put an EXPS on it, some day, and since it isn't a constant on set up like the T1, I kind of want a decent set of irons to back it up.

I had the same issue with a RAS being off center slightly, so I removed it and the gas tube backed the barrel nut just enough to center the RAS worked perfectly. |

If it will sight in properly, cool, if not, I didn't lose anything. Since the last picture I posted, I have been playing around with sticking a M300b on it. End goal is to add an ATPIAL-C and an EXPS3-0, I like the rifles that leaked out with block 2 stuff before the block 2 became common.

So, I had a "eh, fuck it" moment after talking to you earlier, and did this to that handle I had laying around. If it will sight in properly, cool, if not, I didn't lose anything.

End goal is to add an ATPIAL-C and an EXPS3-0, I like the rifles that leaked out with block 2 stuff before the block 2 became common. http://i1308.photobucket.com/albums/s616/goatman254/gun2_zps4ba96a68.jpg Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Nameless_Hobo:

Straight up. I could never chop up a Colt carry handle so I chopped up my GMG carry handle (25-30 bucks IIRC) then touched up the raw aluminum and steel with black spray paint on the end of a q-tip. Matches perfect somehow Yeah, I've got some Alumablack that works well for refinishing small areas like that, if you do the proper prep work. As of now, I've been using a Matech rear because I haven't got around to buying a carry handle, and the only one I have on hand is one of the shitty 'commercial' height ones. I noticed that my RAS is ever so slightly off center, earlier. Trying to track down the cause of it. Same here with the matech. I'm running an SU-231 on that upper and prefer to have a flip up rear BUIS behind an EOTech reticle. Ended up throwing the chopped BUIS on a beater upper for now until I get my mk 18 pistol's upper together (CA )So, I had a "eh, fuck it" moment after talking to you earlier, and did this to that handle I had laying around.

Long as there's no excess metal on the bottom edge from cutting, and it locks down solid then she will sight right in. Wouldn't be surprised if your zero is the same as when it was a Carry handle |

I loaded up some mags, going to give it a go after Christmas.

That's a little derpish of the manufacturer considering everything that doesn't accept a carry handle (A1,A2,A3) are the only generations that use a non F marked. Things that make you go
