It looks like my 7.62 51t brakeout. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v231/sr338/C31749AF-25D0-418C-873F-2C9C061DD13F_zpsb3hdfkof.jpg When were you at DeWitt's? I spend way too much time there. Yeah man, that place is a ridiculous drive from Bragg but the people are cool and the steel pistol range is awesome. Nothing beats home though! There's some of my 5.56 SBR here |

What's your sling mounting system that you like on the 16? Oh yes, and what height are the rings and what do you think of rings vs. something like the AD Delta? |

The actual parts of the carrier that touch and slide on the receiver wouldn't be painted unless you take the carrier out and paint it. |

Gun control is like trying to reduce drunk driving by making it tougher for sober people to own cars.

Bloodsport2885: Because if your riflemen can't reach it, your marksman can. If your marksman can't reach it, your sniper can. If your sniper can't reach it, your arty/air can. If they can't reach it then fuck that target. He isn't even worried about you.

Thanks! I'm guessing it adds just over 2 lbs with the rail, scope and mount added. Thank god for the gym |

So....which one do you like better and will you be getting a mk 20? I haven't shot the SR-25 yet but will report back when I do. SR-25 is certainly heavier than the SCAR 17 but doesn't feel awkward because it is well balanced. MK20 would be nice if funds permit. Cheers |
