Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By 545superiority: I started a little backwards and decided to get all of the M110 specific stuff before I bought a SR25 so far I have Marvin Pitts M110 profile barrel URX 2 handguard double railed gasblock And I have on the way Muzzle device KAC adjustable stock I think once those last two get in I will have all of the weird M110 specific parts (outside of the silencer obvisouly) and can start looking for a good donor SR25 rifle. I was surprised it only took a month or so to source these M110 specific parts. https://u.cubeupload.com/himmelfrhat/1626102353426.jpg hell of a start! |

I've got a couple of money pits as well.
My Mk11 Mod 0 is a factory upper with a vero beach rail sitting on a vero beach lower. Waiting on an optic but can't decide on whether or not to use a Leupold or Nightforce. I generally favor Nightforce, but it would be nice to have some diversity, optic wise, in the safe.  My Mk11 Mod 2/M110 was a bit more complicated. Originally I wanted to go with a factory M110 upper and sit it on a modern SR25 lower. Things just didn't turn out, so I went with a more deconstructed and difficult path. Bought the SR-25 lower from Big Tex along with the M110 can and played the patient game with Operation Parts and NS Defense on all the lower parts for the M110 stock. Picked up a donor ACC upper, M110/Mk11 gas block, older URX consistent with the Navy Mk11 Mod 2, and barrel spun up by Marvin Pitts. Still holding out hope for a factory M110 barrel to pop up someday, but the Nefarious barrel is solid and should serve me well until such a time comes around. The kit is headed to PSD this week.

Well..just bought a SR25 lower to start a M110 build
 I was wondering though, has there been any use of collapsible stocks on a full length M110? Like a SOPMOD or Magpul ACS-L? Also, are there any commercially available uppers that have the M110 Enhanced marking or would I need to get that engraved? |

Finally got the upper re-barreled today. Taking apart an almost 30yr old factory upper was not fun. I’ll post some pics of the whole rifle up once I can get it all reassembled.

That's one clean looking Mk11!
If only I could actually get ahold of Nefarious Arms for an M110 barrel - I've emailed them 3 times over the past week and a half and still no response. Guess I'll keep trying. |

Finally scored a Simrad cap.
Looks like I need some extra screws (as it didn't come with any) to mount it to my 30mm KAC rings on my Mk11 - any idea which specific screws will work and where to get them? |

There are people out there that do, but it's still wrong and not accurate. So you're basically voiding your warranty to have the wrong markings on your gun.

To go along with your point, you can remark the SR-25 to read M110 but I haven't seen anyone offer the Knights Manufacturing Company remarked to Knights Armament Company service. So yeah, its still not correct and the M110 mark is close to $500. |

I've seen warranty work done on things that the end user had happen that wasn't KAC's fault, but now you're just opening the door to them not even looking at it. It's a fair point, but my counter point is why when the markings are still wrong? |

It's a fair point, but my counter point is why when the markings are still wrong? I agree that if nobody can get it to match 100% its a useless endeavor. The markings on my MP5SD and MP5k done by TSC are identical to factory HK markings and I assumed there was someone out there who could replicate KAC markings with the same accuracy. If not then its a moot point. |

One more piece of the puzzle (simrad cap) has arrived - just need to find four (4) KAC scope ring screws to finish it off. Anyone know if KAC sells those?
If not, will any particular brand work if they're the correct size? I saw mention of McMaster-Carr above?  |

If they use the same screws as the one piece mounts then Operation Parts has some in stock.

Thank you! ETA: another question. I know my Mark 4 is calibrated for 168gr ammo, of which I have a little bit for zeroing when my lower gets done. But do you guys exclusively shoot 168gr out of your guns? Can I still expect good accuracy out to 800yd with considerably less expensive M80 spec ammo? |
