Thinking about trading out my MOD 0 upper for something in a more MR556/HK416-ish flavor (I know, I know, it's for a special project, though ).
Gen. III, late MOD 0 - ARMS sleeve, "C AF" upper, set-screwed gas block and WOA barrel. Don't worry, not leaving the clan, will still have a MOD 1. 
The MOD 0 is just kind of lonely, though, no optic, no dedicated lower, and too much other stuff in the pipeline for me to foresee it being finished in the very near future. She deserves better.

Haven't used a peq 2 in a long time, but if you have to remove the rail to install the peq, probably that's why. You don't - the rail has a removable section for this purpose. The A.R.M.S. PEQ sleeve has 2 screws to remove a small portion of the upper rail. This allows the PEQ-2 to recess into the rail itself. |

I did not partake in the special run of these collars, though I appreciate an industry member listening and tailoring to the requests of a small group of individuals in a very distant corner of a very large and obtuse market. Really wish more members of the industry were this responsive to the requests of its customers (but I also understand business and profitability). Problems or not, thanks again.

If you have or have heard complaints about our products I definitely want to hear about it. We pride ourselves on precision manufacturing, so if someone is experiencing issues it is important to me. I just don't want to muddy the photo thread with unrelated discussion, so if you wouldn't mind IMing me I assure you it will be received professionally. After looking into the collar dimensions today, we've found that they do adhere to the specification. If you check the dimensions on the print posted at the top of page 1035 provided by Ron Allen you'll notice the spec is 0.7495 (+.000/ -.001). This is what the long collars we checked all mic at, and is the exact spec on the original print. However, that doesn't fix the problem some folks are experiencing, as we all know barrel dimensions vary from manufacturer to manufacturer and coating dimensions can vary as well. So we opened up a handful of collars to 0.750 for those experiencing issues. If you need a slightly larger collar feel free to contact me and we'll get them switched out for you. |

If the nav spec is .749 and the GB IS .750, its no wonder it didnt fit. I retract my words. I was pissed and i showed it on the public forum. Sorry for that. I will be measuring my WOA barrel to confirm its .750. |

My barrel was/is short by about .25" too ...machining the shoulder back is an option, but I don't think it's a great fix because it will have the collar sitting closer to the gas block than it is supposed to be.Here is how my barrel and short collar measured up: SHORT  Here's my fix for the short barrel. Bought a spacer (just under .25") from Adco.  The thought behind using this as a fix is that the barrel is short. So, I'm using the spacer to make the barrel the spec 18 inches. I think I'm comfortable with the number of threads available for the brake:  Now it measures up correctly  With the AEM5 on we won't see it, but it should get plenty of turns, within spec. And, without the AEM5 on, I think it looks ok:  What do you guys think of this? In my own personal opinion this is the best option available, other than taking the upper apart and replacing the barrel  I'll make the final decision when I get the AEM5 in hand, but I think this will be what I stick with. |

Not much desert where I live, and wanted to do a SHTF urban sniper rifle. I immediately regretted my decision after clear coating it. |

Had some questions about my gear setup so thought I'd answer in here. I've become fond of the Pelican 1700 mostly for its small size. The 1720 and 1750 feel a little big to me where the 1700 seems to fit in most any place.
Here's what I keep in her: - SBR Colt lower with Geissele SSA-E, CAR stock, Griffin AR-SOB - Mk 12 Mod H upper with Ops 12th - Block II CQBR upper with Surefire SOCOM mini - PVS-14 w/ CRYE Nightcap for NV - G33 for CQBR - Glock 19 w/ Surefire X300 in Kydex w/ 3 mags - Leupold Mk 4 Spotter with TMR reticle (matching reticle to Mk 12 scope) & mini tripod - Leupold RX-1000i rangefinder - Garmin Oregon GPS - Otis 5.56/9MM cleaning kit with addition of fireclean & .223 bore snake - Sling, gloves, ear pro & eye pro - Small pack of spare batteries for everything This all fits easily with plenty of room to spare for as many rifle mags as I want to throw in. Pretty happy with this as I can just grab and go at any time and have most everything I'd need on me to do any kind of shooting other than shotgun. Covers everything from handgun, CQB, to medium-range (600 yds or so) with precision sub-MOA Mk 12. All quiet and all NV capable. |

That .300 wm counterpart cannot come out soon enough. Not sure what the hold up is either. Mk11 can is still in jail though, but not for long. All I have to show for that kit is the F1.
This little project will probably be put away until a mid life crisis rolls around. Too busy throwing money at .30 cal projects. Were TS30A2s ever issued on a Mod 0? Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By dangerdan:

Clone diseased, the spacer is probably fine. But turning down the barrel would be pretty simple of a fix and no one will notice .20 between the collar and the gas block. It's your rifle. You're the one that has to be happy.
Speaking of happy. AEM5 day! Yay! 4 months and 1 day. An interesting side note. Spartanglory11's AEM5 got exactly 8 turns on my gun. I snugged it good too. Mine got 8.8-8.9 same gun no changes. I guess I never considered things could be different from can to can too. His is about 40 SN ahead of mine Pre paint pics

I just got one and put some rounds through my MK18 with it, then swapped to a lower with an H2 or H3 (don't remember) and the difference was significant in my opinion. |

If the LT104 wasnt issued is there any reason that one couldnt run the LT158 or LT139 instead? I dont see a need for 1.5" f you can run 1.44.
I guess this is where the "what they used vs what i would run as an operator" line is drawn? |
