It was a real pain to find an upper in roughly the same color as the lower and rail. Lower and rail match pretty well, the upper has more of a green hue. Just as I was about to get a black upper to finish the gun, I came accross a guy who had a full Spikes gun in this color, but was selling the upper seperate. I asked if he minded if I bought the upper alone and replaced his with a black one. He didn't and that's how I wond up with this. I've been shooting this gun a lot since I've built it, usually with the Surefire can. Shot it several times at our Friday night range outings, and at a few CFDCC matches. It's been great, and I expect to be shooting it a lot more!  What's the make of the Comp M4s mount? Is that the one made by GG&G? |

ATP-000-A18VIS came in today. Heavier than I thought it would be, but I like it. Comes with 3 visible lasers for each (IR Laser, Visible and Illuminator). The Illuminator is adjustable from flood to beam (looks silly in flood, but I get the idea). Controls are all the same as a regular PEQ-15. Anyway, onto the photos.
On a side note, took my old battery box and made my 870 a "Block II"
Got a little carried away, and put the battery box on my 1911 as well, just for giggles. 
Once my MRDS and hood comes in, I think I'll be done with this rifle for a while. Until further upgrades from SOCOM... |

Are the power levels on the laser adjustable from LO/HI? Lever goes that way, still the same output. |

What is the point of having the ATP-000-A18VIS? Is it just for clone purposes or people without NVGs?
Are all settings red visible lasers (No IR function whatsoever)? |

Is it outdoor visible/ visible in contrast with a weapon light or is it low light only? |

Just got word from Elcan that they will be making more of the commercial FDE units and can Pre order them soon. In other news the Black 2 is no more and ordered all new FDE goodies so itll be more legit. With the news from Elcan ill definitly be looking for a FDE DR to replace the Black. Debating on a stubby TG VFG I hated the fullsize...

I dig an FDE block II as well though. That's why I have both.
I'm gonna transfer the T1 on my black block II to an SBR in the near future, and likely turn it into more a RECCE/SPR though. Likely pick up a Vortex Viper PST 2.5-10x32 FFP with an offset red dot. |

They need to just make the SU-230 a commercially available variant. The demand is obviously there.
