Probably, but since we really just made up the name, and I made up the rules for the thread, we are posting variable optics in here, brother.

Hey M4GER is this always the same gun in your pics mocked up differently each time?  just curious.  I see it everywhere, looks the same just different scope or mount or something.

Oh no it is certainly not the same. I haven't figured out how to limit myself to one rifle.  That one is a 14.5 Sr15E3 gun with the new stripped KAC lower and a pinned and welded M4QD MAMS.  I will have to do a family photo some time. The URX2, URX3, and 3.1 handguards are now on most guns. Only a few have Daniel Defense SLiM 12s on them.

Love it Liiiitle bit heavy, but the rifle balances nicely. Glass is stupid clear, adjustments are just tactile enough without being hard to use. Only thing I want to get is a low profile cat tail to make adjustments a wee bit quicker. 1x is pretty spot on, makes snapping the rifle onto target and getting shots off easy. 1x eyebox pretty decent too. Can't comment on daylight bright illumination, was a bit cloudy yesterday and my friend came in from out of town and was more interested in shooting my bumpsaw and new 1911

Pard has a colt-barreled CQBR build and just for shits 'n' grins we put my Viper PST 6-24 on top and threw some 69SMK loads through it at 100.  Was averaging right about 1" (some a bit bigger, some a bit smaller).

I know it's a sample of one and all that, but these days I'd be surprised if a decently-made barrel was shooting considerably worse than 1-2 MOA.  My 13.7" at 4x and my highly-caffeniated bad-shot ass was pulling sub MOA pretty standard, but it's also a rock creek tube so....

From my understanding, accuracy has less to do with actual barrel length and really only effects velocity so, a quality <12" barrel should shoot just as good as a barrel over 12" at say 100 yards (since that's typically the universal range most use to gauge).


I have a Noveske 10.5" SS barrel in one of my SBR's and I usually average 1.75" MOA with BH 77gr Red Box using an ELCAN 1-4. I'd really like to get higher magnification glass on there one day to see what it could really do if I took my time.

Correct, that's the question I should've asked.

I bought a 1-4x Vortex Viper PST yesterday and decided to build a Mini Recce around it.

I like SLR and Geissele rails but want to use something different so I am going to use a CMR rail. I am needing a 12.5" barrel recomendation and would like it to be a heavy barrel like this one from Black Hole Weaponry or this Noveske barrel. Are there any other 12.5" barrels I should be considering?

I'm not seeing a 12.5" Stealth and after seeing M4-AR's 12" Stealth/11" CMR upper I don't think the 51T mounts will allow me to use my suppressor on that barrel/rail combo.

Just reached out to RA in hopes that he can bore my .22 12th out to .30 so I'm not limited to just the .30 12th. It will shave big front end weight & OAL if he can come through w/ the request. I'm running way more can than needed, primary host for the .30 12th is my SR25.

Not so sure there will be much difference in suppression between the two, atleast w/ 300blk... maybe a touch of difference w/ supers but subs should be just as awesomely quiet in a much lighter & shorter package.

I want my retirement from AR building to be a noveske 12.5 crusader with matched noveske receiver sets. The only noveske stuff I have is a 18spr barrel on my 3 gun rifle and 16chf noveske barrel on a go bag gun. My 12.5 would be a gaudy noveske fan boy gun. Even bazooka green cerakote. How's the accuracy of the crusader. I'm going to slap a 1-6 accupoint on it.
