So it's a super duty upper, do they at least come with the four prong flash hider?

I guess with the DD 14.5 mid lenth barrel shortage they had no choice.

No Colt upper or BCG
No DD barrel with pinned DD gas block

I guess it just depends on the level of cloning you want.

I can't blame geissele for the barrel shortage, can always flip the barrel when clone ones get in stock.

My second URGI upper was a build vs the first run factory URGI on the right.

Pic thread, my DDC CH is on my DDC geissele build until I get another.

Agreed, don’t see why any company with an intent to run a profitable business would cater to cloners.

MK16 handguard on the Super Duty doesn't have the tabs on the side, but on the top that indexes with a notch in the upper receiver.

I’d have to agree with that.  We cloners are a particular bunch.  When companies have tried to break into it, they get nit picked non stop.  They’d be better off just selling whatever contract parts they produce separately for us to build on our own.

Got my RC2 for 765 from Surefire. Put the order in just a couple weeks ago, Surefire dude said I got lucky. Will be my first can. Can't imagine waiting a year, guess I'll just have to forget about it and be surprised later.
Sold my second URGI upper for $2k on Gbroker.

Does anyone actually prefer the Elcan 1-4 over the Razor 1-6? Love my Razor but that mag ring is a heavy bitch. Would prefer the quick toggle of the Elcan plus the lesser weight.

I’ve had thoughts about going back to an Elcan on my 11.5 URGI for no other reason than how compact it is relative to the Razor

I prefer the Elcan.  I’ve come to really dislike LPVO’s.  I actually started with a Razor 1-6 on my Block II and traded it for an Elcan 1-4 which I still have.  I later picked up a Razor 1-10 for my URGI, kept it for a bit and sold it.  I recently picked up another Razor 1-10, kept it for a day and went right back to my T2 on the URGI.  I love my Elcan though and am considering picking another one up in the future.

My Elcan was issued and it worked great for a combat optic.  I don't spend $1k on optics so I do not own one.  I have an LPVO on my URGI with an offset RDS because it is my coyote rifle too.  If it was a clone or SHTF only, the Elcan is perfect.

From what I've seen the consensus is you either love the Elcan or hate it. Some say the eyebox and eye relief is great, others say it sucks. Some hate the arms mounts and external adjustments, some say no issues.

I've come to appreciate durability above all things and the Elcan certainly has that reputation.

How is it on 1x? Do you feel its faster than an LPVO despite the 2.5 inch-ish eye relief?

For me the lackluster warranty, somewhat high price and only 4x for said price kinda holds me back. But I am still intrigued. Been thinking of just going back to Acog/RMR for my Block 1 instead and leaving Razor on the URGI. Eye relief caused me to sell my last one, but the only other magnified optic on the same level of durability is the Elcan. Maybe ATACR.

CompM4s and Larue mount was my first set-up on my URGI.  In my quest to have some variety in optics that I own, I may go back to it on my 14.5” URGI.  Which would free up my T2 for an 11.5” URGI down the road.

The eye relief doesn’t bother me.  But 4x ACOG eye relief doesn’t bother me either so the Elcan feels better to me with the slightly longer eye relief.  

1x seems fine to me.  The illuminated dot is red dot bright but even with it off, the etched reticle is very easy to pick up on 1x.  

I always have a hard time getting the diopter set correctly so that I can get a true 1x on LPVO’s.  The Elcan does not have an adjustable diopter but it works well with my eyes.  

Armament Tech has really good customer service.  The written warranty may not sound good but in reality they seem to take of any problems without issue.  I marred up my battery cap trying to get it off pretty good.  I called them up and they sent me a new one free of charge.

Nice, I have instock notifications for everywhere and haven’t seen a DD barrel in quite some time. Hope they bust out a run before March so I can assemble a URGI clone when I come back to the states.

I'm betting there's been a few other mounts seen in the wild, just looking to see what my options are.

Now that Geissele is making them again with G barrels you'll either get a big premium for the DD barrel, or on the other hand people that haven't been following it closely might not know the difference. There's a G barrel version on gunbroker now for 1350 new.

But anything official? A lot of different optics pictured so I'm guessing it's up to the unit or operator.
