I really like the ACOG / piggy backed RMR setup, and the Blackout BDC in the ACOG. I currently have the RMR zeroed for subs to match the 0-50 subsonic hold diamond in the ACOG. |

Recently finding the FF-RAS 21318 was PDC. I am grateful for the vendor who supplied it to me. After deciding to start a 14.7" FN build, I went shopping today and scared up an 18" FN and went to work on swapping the FF RAS on to see how it mocked up. I'm still going to build a 14.7, just need to get the barrel and NT-4 compensator (93048). It will end up being a mini-recce with a 1-4 of some kind. |

Hey gents, was hoping I could get a little history/information on this stick I came across. It’s been sitting for a really long time and as far as I remember, hasn’t been fired much at all.
I’m very ignorant on SR15s, but I did notice the 2 stage trigger is the adjustable all parkerized version like the MK11’s had. Noticed the LMT gen 2 says patent pending. I need to find its rear sight, its somewhere around the shop. Never had an optic mounted to it. Happy to take additional pictures, etc. but some things I’m wondering are: -age? -why the selector marking locations are milled into the receiver prior to engraving (SAFE and FIRE) -value? -anything else you have for me would be wildly appreciated! Thank you so much! Attached File Attached File Attached File Attached File Attached File |

Value could be around $5000. Call up KAC with the S/N and verify that it is one of the limited run SR-15 legacy guns. It's cool either way |

Appreciate the reply @m4ger . The one thing I hate about these guns is that I’m afraid to even touch the thing or cycle it as it highly likely will be finding a new home. I emailed KAC so I’ll see what I get back from them, appreciate the suggestion. This doesn’t really fit the niche of what I have, would be better served in someone else’s collection that will appreciate it regardless of what it ends up being.
I can’t stop being curious about the milled out selector marking areas, that ones got me |

View Quote It’s unbelievably handy and way lighter than it looks, then again the only experience I have with KAC built rifles are Mk11s and those aren’t lighter than they look . The old school adjustable mk11 trigger definitely lends me to believe it might be those initial batch guns they showed off at SHOT 2007, I imagine were delivered late 07 into 08? Just spitballing but can’t wait to hear back! |

Mine came with KAC case, taupe grip/rail covers, lock, manuals, rear big knob 600m sight, shooting log, etc. I’m not sure of the date but I believe 2009-2010 was mentioned when it was purchased. I paid $5k for mine if that helps. |

A simple 14.5" seemed like a waste since a urx3.1 13.5" does it better. I wanted something with a rifle length gas system to utilize the 12.5" length. But... A mk12-ish build or sending? Meh... But recently it found it's calling... On a 16" rifle-length 308 POF Rogue (which I pieced together from specially ordered parts). It's a 308 dmr that is the size and weight of an AR15.
