I ask because I have a 10.3 300 BLK pistol but want to use a 5.56 to save on fur. Wondering if you were getting DRT speeds shooting 50-55 grain pills out of a 12.5.

Is that the MK16 in gray from when Geissele released them in a bunch of colors a few months back?

Thanks for feedback. Ordered ELW last night with an H2 buffer. Will stop clogging thread with posts now until I have other pictures.

This is all I contribute. Snagged the viper gen 1 PST for a amazing price NIB Off the EE. Geissele SDC trigger is here waiting for small parts. knights mag release, talon safety, MOEK2+ Are in transit somewhere. 11.5 ELW upper, Geissele SDCH in DDC, BCM FDE BCG, VIckers padded sling, H2 buffer and dead air MB are also somewhere in the mail. Still neeed mount, BUIS, light, and decide on a forward grip or handstop or something. |

Scored the Vortex 1-6x24 MRAD, ADM mount, covers and throw lever for $1k shipped off FB. Very happy about that.
As posted before, Larue Stealth 12.5" Barrel, BCM Guts, AAC-556. I Have a Geissele 2 Stage in another lower that I will swap out. Hope to get it dialed in this weekend but need some heavier ammo, any recommendations are appreciated. This Larue/Harris bipod is rather large on the rifle, does anything out there have a smaller footprint? Attached File |

Any suggestion for a 30mm mount for a viper PST 1-4 and a BUIS that would fit under it? QD is preferred.

Put my Larue MBT Trigger in my mini.
Wow the trigger is so much nicer than the ALG ACT. But.......... I snapped my badass selector screw in the process of putting it back together. Already emailed them. It’s broke off in the selector. Just had started threading in. |
