I've always thought when building a clone, if you use other than standard/correct parts that can't be seen(gas block, barrel, bcg, etc) JUST DONT talk about it

Anyway, 2 more days.

Do Knights BUIS ever go on sale or is that a hold your nose and just pull out the credit card kind of deal? Was hoping to see something during Black Friday weekend but didn't find anything. I'm guessing it's probably the latter.

Lanbo's Armory has the best price on new taupe 99051's at $174 - just have to add it to your cart to see the price. Good deals pop up in the EE every now and then.

You can still post pics, they just show up as a link. When a team member approves it, then it will show up like normal.

Mine’s all accurate, sorry you don’t like my paint job. First I’ve heard of it being a problem and I’ve been here on and off since the first iteration of the thread. I guess we could spend a few pages figuring out how to wear the paint just right for that OAF look.

Thanks for the tip. I’m learning to use the IMGUR and I need to learn through repetition. I have memory problems from too many concussive blasts, at least that’s what the VA says.

Very nice rifles, I bet that 300 is fun!

THIS is what you want. You can probably find it cheaper in the EE.

Great to see you around again, Thunder. Rifle looks rad as always. What's this you speak of in regards to RMAR matches at Rio? Can you elaborate? I live in Gilbert and haven't shot for like 9+ months. I'm itching to get out and use this thing more.

Great to see you on here as well! Rio Salado has a match on the 3rd Sunday of the month called Red Mountain Action Rifle. They are USPSA style matches with carbines and they are perfect for these rifles. Open stage, run the can. Tight maze, pop the can off and it’s CQB. It’s $7 if you do the pistol match in the morning, I think it’s $12 or $20 if you don’t. No prize money, but they are fun and the MK18/CQBR was purpose built for it. I let my membership lapse, so I don’t think I can PM anymore; however, if you’re interested, we can figure out how to link up! Nice rifle!
