Looks rad! How’s the sight picture through the aimpoint? I just ordered the badger j arm and a deltapoint and was afraid the light would be in the way of the dot.

those of yall with NX8's, what mount height would yall recommend to clear an NGAL? I know the 1.93 came about to clear a PEQ2 or a PEQ15 but the NGAL is 1.2" in height as opposed to the PEQ15 that is 1.6". I noticed not enough of these mini recce's have lasers, so I'm kind of left wondering.

I noticed not enough of these mini recce's have lasers, so I'm kind of left wondering. By “clearing”, what do you mean? Do you mean physically above so the scope tube doesn’t touch the laser? Or do you mean just not taking up a lot of the sight picture at 1x? A 30mm tube in inches is 1.18”. If you take a 1.93” mount and subtract 0.59 (scope radius and distance from mount height to bottom of scope), you get 1.34”. That will physically clear a 1.2” tall laser. If you dropped down to a 1.7” mount, the bottom of the scope would be 1.11” above the picatinny. It wouldn’t physically clear the laser, but I doubt the laser would be much of an issue to visibly at 1x. |

(Very very small shadow on the bottom of the sight picture, Peq pushed to the end of the rail) 1.70 would be the minimum if your trying to have "clean" sight picture on 1x w/Ngal.

Thank you! my first LPVO and looking to pick up an ngal sometime next year and wanted to keep it 12 ocock mounted and wondered how much of it would be in the sight picture at 1x. |

Lol if I love it, I’m gonna move it over to a 10.5 frankenbuild I got and move the eotech to the dev clone until the ultra mount is released. Going for a tan ultramount and black ATACR clone. I hate selling optics but if I don’t get rid of them, whole ass uppers appear haha |

Aesthetically for me, it's perfect for a suppressed 12.5" Durability wise I don't have enough rounds and hard use to recommend it over a G Rail or Kac yet. Its internal diameter thins out as it get farther from the reciever. Makes the balance nice with all the accessories on the end. If it can reliable hold the laser zero it might be my new go to handguard. |

But I’ve seen a couple folks using it and haven’t heard of any ill reviews so hopefully it’ll stay reliable |

So a 13.9 with 13 URX is a no go for a P&W? At least by adco? Didn't he say you can't get the tool in the gap to pin it? I'd be using a SF3P Maybe I'll have to go with a different rail. |

Got the custom collar for the AEM4 back from Ron Allen on Friday and put the mini mod H back together. Zeroed on Saturday. What a pleasure to shoot and totally worth the wait.
 I know she's long, but I promise she fits the criteria for this thread.  Shopping for a couple more things before I call this one complete: - Tenebraex flip covers are on the short list to get. - A G trigger that's NOT the SD3G  (had a 2 shot burst)- I really don't like the arca/pic rail tripod mount that far up on the handguard. Not exclusive to this build but I might ask the wife for a PIG saddle for Christmas. |

Not exclusive to this build but I might ask the wife for a PIG saddle for Christmas. The diameter of the PRI is right at the limit of what the saddle will hold. I've got one and it doesn't take much to wiggle it out of the saddle. I wound up buying a Manfrotto adapter that clamps to pic rails from Larue and mounted it to a Manfrotto ball head. The saddle will still work, I don't want you to think it won't, it's just not ideal IMO. |
