Might go with rings on the Mini. Give it that NSW vibe. Maybe some A107's. Got a VX-R Patrol on the way. Gotta throw an Lt724 off set micro on it as well.

This is mini enough, right? 13.9 Triarc built on an old Armalite receiver set from a LE trade in. Scalarworks mount and more FCD goodies to come.

I like the Steiner but I do miss the FOV and forgiveness of my old Razor sometimes. Was shooting from a vtac barricade today and from awkward/compromised positions I found myself wanting a bit more from the P4. It's a tall ask I know, these aren't red dots. |

Digging this setup. Got some A107's On the way. Going to try an AFG instead of the KAC panel and handstop.
The VXR is pretty impressive at 4x. I got this thing for a fucking steal in the Uni so couldn't say no.

Would work well for a recessed application, as long as you get the spacing right. The rear of the mount comes back to the wrench flats on the muzzle device, about .250" from the shoulder I'd guess. I'll measure. |

Had to ditch the NF ring concept. This optic needs more eye relief. So went with a Larue. Always thought they looked good with the FF RAS
Almost wrapped up. Have an IWC offset scout mount On the way so I can wrap my hand around the RAS better.

 Here's my 300blk MR. I'm waiting on a Rex MG7 to tie the look together. I have a bronze Badger C1 mount that would have looked cool too, but the nuts interfere with the upside-down left ejection port door.  It shoots 1" groups at 100 yards with S&B 200gr (all I've got at the moment), which makes me think the barrel could be sub-MOA with better ammo and/or higher magnification. But I'm still happy with those results. |

Thanks for the assist. Most of my stuff wears streamlight but I got this matchy olight in a flash sale and it's been fine so far, other than using a proprietary battery. Are they known to fail a lot or something?

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By cdholmes: I was luckily able to source one off the forums. Looks like another mini recce build is in the works. You should like it. The mid gas is nice, and its doesn't seem like the port is wide open for running suppressed. Pretty accurate as well. Between that and my block 2 CQBR, those are two most frequently grabbed guns out of my safe.
