Just got the T-1 today which finished it off. It's gonna be a while before I'm able to build another. I have a sig mk25 sitting at my FFL, waiting for Maryland State Police background check, which is my first pistol so it will be cool to break into that realm of firearms. Anyone know of a can that will fit on a Battlecomp 1.5? Maybe I'm not done yet.

If you're only going to have one, might as well build it right.  Looks good.

Pretty good for your first.  My first was a rickety Bushmaster.  Reliable as hell, but not a particular quality firearm.  Reasonably accurate too!  Now I have 3 Noveske's after I managed to rape people on parts prices over the last few months and turn the money into my dream rifles .

Good for you man, nothing wrong with a little capitalism. I think when I build another, it will be a noveske.

Nice little carbine, looks a lot like one of mine.



Question... why put the T-1 so far forward?




I prefer my optic right up against the BUIS.

Having it that far forward helps to reduce the amount of field of view the optic itself takes up, IMO. I tried it in a couple of places and it seemed to be the most comfortable there.

On a regular magnified optic that is the only way to run them.  But the T-1 has infinite eye relief, and the further forward you run it the more the housing disappears and leaves only a floating red dot on target when running both eyes open.  I even have a pic somewhere looking through a T-1 on my rifle from about 10yd away...kind of cool.

I see. Never tried that but fuckin' A, might give it a go.

 



Probably doesn't change zero much at 50 yds?

I can't imagine it would, it's only about 7 inches or so. Definitely re-zero your optic though
