My DDM4v5. I know I can't use the MBUS sites with the mount on and it is not quick detach. I just didnt want to misplace them so I left them on. Not hurting anything. I will give the mount a whirl and see how I like it before I spend the $ on a Larue or ADM mount. I like the AERO mounts but need to find them in stock first. I'll try this and see if it suits my purpose before doing anything else to it. Added a SSA trigger so it is off to the range to get sighted in. <a href="http://s288.photobucket.com/user/fuzzyreticle/media/DDM4V5/IMG_9448_zpsb3e4ptpz.jpg.html" target="_blank">http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll190/fuzzyreticle/DDM4V5/IMG_9448_zpsb3e4ptpz.jpg</a> <a href="http://s288.photobucket.com/user/fuzzyreticle/media/DDM4V5/IMG_9452_zpsmyp207lo.jpg.html" target="_blank">http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll190/fuzzyreticle/DDM4V5/IMG_9452_zpsmyp207lo.jpg</a> You can with an Allen wrench in your pocket |

Ok, for a as close to spec recce build, a Leupold would be more correct, but as for function, close quarter and ability to group @100yrds.....Leupold mk4 Mr/t 1.5-5 illuminated spr or Vortex Razor HD 1-4 EBR 556???

So why would a 1.25 be far superior for close up work? I agree that 1-6 are great. |

So why would a 1.25 be far superior for close up work? I agree that 1-6 are great. Nothing [1-4 scopes] is really a 'true' 1x. The viper is 'close' but is not much better than the leupold 1.25. The vortex viper is more like a 1.1-1.2X at the lowest power whereas the leupold actually advertises itself as 1.25x because...well...leupold is cool like that, I guess. Plus the firedot on the leupold, when turned on, acts like a red dot whereas the vortex viper has a very busy reticle at 1x. |

It has to do with eye relief and the vortex line is very near to 1x while 1.25 is definitely not and requires set eye relief. You can of course set the brightness all the way up but that leaves your reticle in a wash for any other use. What you consider to be very busy other make use of. I like horse shoe and doughnut style reticles. I for one would prefer a 2.5-10 for this kind of use as the 10 can help far more with ID of what you are shooting at. I think it is safe to just disagree on this and state that there isn't a consensus either way. |

So, I finally got that fucking rail I've been waiting on, along with the front flip up sight. Now, just waiting on the 2-600 rear buis, (not the micro) and couldn't decide which glass to go with, so I went with both. Your right, won't know till I look through. They're both brand new, only gonna keep one, so I'll give you Recce boys first dibs before it goes up on the EE

Dark brown is the new black. For me at least. I keep debating on spraying mine. I did a M1A stock in it a like the color. But I'm afraid to do my AR's for some reason. But I think it's the best color for here. In WI. Well, actually I think good ole woodland covers us pretty well. So OD is cool with me too.
What I'm trying to say is nice build so far my state brethren! |

For the RECCE, I'm going to put a 2.5-10x32 Viper PST FFP on it in a new ADM Delta-C mount. Eventually I'll put a clip on from Hoover on it and slay coyotes. |

We're you going for the Seal Recce look or did it just turn out that way? I was/am going for that look for sure. Nice! Definitely a build I want to do sometime. What optic setup are you going to go with? Thanks! I have to look around, but right now leaning towards a NightForce. Need a bipod too. I have the NF 2-10x32 on my Mk12 and it is an excellent scope. You won't be disappointed if you decide to go that route |

Now I really don't need them my scope has the reticle etched into the glass. I actually plan on selling my pa scope and getting a strike eagle when it comes out |

But, they no longer offer them contoured for the Ops brake and collar, so I will have to send it to Adco. I have to admit, this barrel is a fuckin tac driver!! With some 75gr that I rolled for her, she was grouping better than the Douglas on my Mod1. And if you are cloning a SEAL Recce rifle, then yes. We will have the same guns |

I believe the Lilja M4 barrel is .725 in front of the gas block, and technically the contour calls for .749 where the step is, down to .725. Might want to email both Lilja and ADCO to verify if there is an option. Might have to get ADCO to cut the .700x.700 M4 step and use AE's M4 to AEM5 adapter. AEM5/12TH profile 
Lilja barrel AE M4 *might* work. Ron maybe could rig you a custom .725 to .700 step adapter
