I just had to look it up. "Far from KISS; Schmidt & Bender Short Dot tactical scope, extended rail, aftermarket stock and grip, take off the LA-5 laser and you could easily see this exact same set-up at any local 3-gun match, instead this is currently downrange being employed by a U.S. Infantry Soldier." IIRC, the guy in the other pic is AFSOC and that would likely explain all of the oddball bits on it. |

Well, I now have a BCM 14.5" RIS II FSP upper on the way...
I haven't had a 14.5" carbine, or FSP equipped rig in ages. And I know what some of you may be thinking right now, but no, hell has not frozen over - I just simply got way too good of a deal on this upper to pass it up. |

You got a serious shopping problem, I've gone through that phase a few times, something new was arriving every single day for a good 3 or 4 months at a time. I sold that Colt SOCOM at my cost to Geno locally back in November. It was only in my possession for a week or two, and I just removed it from its factory box once. I actually intend to use this upper. So this will be the first 14.5" carbine or FSP rig I've actually owned and used in a good 4 or 5 years. My long and hard case of BRD has still yet to see an end, unfortunately. I've told myself I was done dozens of times now, but I just keep making moves. In fairness, it's really tough to sit idle in this current market. There is just so much low hanging fruit, and so many people nearly giving stuff away. |

I read every page of the thread. I am saving for graduate school but it is really tempting to build a Block II rifle.
