Info on that mount setup with the T1?

Got some time with the recce this morning. Boringly accurate and as comfortable as always.

The only bad thing about having too many Insight MRDS rings is getting scopes to put them on. |

What length would that rail have been and is there any chance of finding one? I have a commercial (I guess) AAC 12.5 upper but it currently has their SquareDrop rail on it and a 51T.

I don’t think they received any with square drop, but I can’t confirm that. As for finding one… it’s very hard. Your best bet is to get your current barrel reprofiled to fit the suppressor. The suppressor will be the most difficult to find since it was never commercially available and all that got out are spoken for. So you’d have to convince someone to sell you theirs. |

I hope I’m asking these questions in the right thread and not clogging it up.
Would the receiver have been a Colt one or an AAC marked one? Colt or AAC lower? Have any of you all cloned this? Is there a build sheet/list? I appreciate y'all taking time to answer my questions. |

If you’re on instagram, Weapons of Socom will also make a post about them once they are ready for sale. |

Have any of you all cloned this? Is there a build sheet/list? I appreciate y'all taking time to answer my questions. View Quote All AAC, upper and lower. There is no official build list. These were trial guns essentially, Wilson combat was also trialed but haven’t seen any pictures of those. I heard on a podcast that Kevin B. stated the Navy bought uppers (9 & 12.5) and eventually purchased full guns with suppressors. These guns were still in use, but now that noveske has won the contract, these will probably see less use (my opinion) |

View Quote Robert at High End armament won it. Sold for $10k. From having spoken with someone who knows Robert, the man has nearly unlimited funds. There was no beating him. But for the 4 hours where I was top bidder, I felt good. |
