Sorry for my stupid question, but what does the RIS II better than the RIS II FSP? Only saw a little quantity of pics of service men using a FSP RIS II? I'm excited to read your points of fews and replies. Thanks in advance. Greetings, The FSP simply has a fixed front sight. The non-FSP version has a full rail, so flip up sights are needed, or can be skipped all together if the user just wants to run an optic. Some might see the fixed sight as an advantage in cost, and durability. I personally see the non-FSP as a better choice because my view through the optic is not obstructed, and more importantly I can place peripheral equipment where I want them on as not to interfere with my grip. Further, a full raill can be fully removed if disassembly is needed. Whereas an FSP version (if the muzzle is pin/welded) the barrel can be removed but is more or less stuck within the rail. |

What does the military use to install RIS II rails? I am assuming it is something other then the POS DD sends with the RIS II. It has to be one of the worst wrenches I have ever used, and it bends very easy. Has anyone ever tried to harden on of the RIS II wrenches?

I emailed them and they sent me out one of the "in house armorer" wrenches. Granted I literally have 6-7 RIS II style rails but their customer service is literally ABOVE and BEYOND! |

Is it worth the SBR paperwork and money for a 14.5" barrel? My FSP build is just about done, other than a pin & weld or getting it SBR'd. I'm kind of leaning towards SBR for ease of assembly/disassembly. Even though once it's together, that's how it's going to stay.
In lieu of EOTech shitting the bed, I'll probably pick up a TA31 RCO for it. |

Love it.. eye relief a little bit more finicky than a 1-4 Elcan but the 6 power and the BDC which is more true to 5.56 than a Elcan makes shooting at distance easy. I have the 5.56 55gr BDC still pretty damn close with MK262 77gr. And its built like a WWII tank, I have fallen down a few times with the rifle hitting the rocks it has held zero. |

That's a real M4A1 with cut out DDM4 rail from the AMU I didn't say it wasn't a real M4/M4A1, just that it wasn't a Block II. The Block II use a specific rail (the RIS II), which the one you posted doesn't have.

They have widespread issues with the body cracking (I've also broke the selector lever off one of my IR models) and I've managed to brick two of the IR models trying to change the high/low priority (using Inforce's directions).

The WML definitely isn't anywhere near bomb proof like Surefire and Insight, but if your weapons don't see much abuse you'll most likely be fine. Just don't try to change that priority setting that jeffro did.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By SGL_Shooter: Damn. Yall just saved me some headache. So tell me about the TLR-1 Pressure switches available? You can get a long gun version with pressure switch and regular toggle switch for around $150. 600 lumens, with decent throw. The beam can have some squarish shape to it at the edges, but it doesn't affect it's usefulness.  It's not really clone correct though. The best value clone lights are probably going to be the M3x Insight lights, but their output kinda sucks.  Another option is a Surefire M951 with a drop in LED conversion. They are fairly heavy and big though.  Surefire M952V is about the same price as M3X, still with a dismal (blue) output  |

TLR-1 HL is the best value in a weaponlight in my experience. You can get a long gun version with pressure switch and regular toggle switch for around $150. 600 lumens, with decent throw.

The best value clone lights are probably going to be the M3x Insight lights, but their output kinda sucks. http://www.cobratactical.com/assets/images/InsightTechGear/L-3-Insight-Tech-Gear_M3X-700-A35.jpg Another option is a Surefire M951 with a drop in LED conversion.

Pressure switches available? You can get a long gun version with pressure switch and regular toggle switch for around $150. 600 lumens, with decent throw.

Looks like besides the M951/952 that the M600V Scout in tan is also in use a decent amount? I'm looking at a 951 for $100, a 952 for $190, or a M600V in tan for $225. Spend my money Also looking at an M3X available for $140.
MILSPEC, I don't beat my stuff up on purpose, but my storage situation sometimes means all my shit is thrown in a pelican case and locked, so it does get bumped around a decent bit going to and from the range. |
