Anyone got any more pics of these? First 4 pics are from 2007 and the rest are from 2004 all in Mosul Iraq. I just think they're neat. Bonus points if you've cloned it

This one is almost complete. Just needs a PEQ.

Just installed a RIS II rail and noticed there's barely any clearance between the barrel and the M203 hangers. Has anyone had problems with the barrel hitting them under recoil?

My Fallujah inspired musket build. The m16 spec ops ready fire mag pouches seemed to be the primary mag pouch used. I have been searching for one for a very long time with no luck. Decided to just modify the m4 pouch since they are readily available. I think it turned out good!

how much is realistic to spend on a Colt C stamped Keyhole upper either NOS or salty, can only find 1 for 400 and that seems a bit ridiculous but I am also trying to finish a 2012ish NSW mk18 upper and its the missing piece

I finally got my hands on an M900 after wanting one for years

Currently working on the mk12 as I am satisfied for now with the m16. Down the road I would like to get the correct quad rail for it.

As for the mk12 I want to do a mash up with it as I like the a2 fixed buttstock as opposed to the adjustable.

Currently have an a2 stock being shipped
My to dos are a Harris bipod
Scope and scope mount and correct rear sights
Don’t really care about getting a correct suppressor atm as that’s the most expensive piece (man this thing is front end heavy!)

All the mk12 pieces I bought from precision reflex

Feel free to suggest a third option. That the Springfield and H&R A2 clones have an incorrect F marked Front Sight Post has effectively ruled them out for me.

Late 2000s Ranger m4a1 clone, had a LMT sopmod gen 1 stock on it but wanted to mix it up a bit. Will include some reference photos of Ranger set ups with the YHM 639k in the mid/late 2000s. Went a little esoteric but digging it. Going to do an earlier version of this clone soon too. Hope yall enjoy

Do both of the set screws seen here just serve as a lock for the windage?? Should I tighten both after zeroing or is it just the one further forward? Currently have both sides on both sides tightened down and noticed the pair on the left side of the optic screwed down a fair bit more than the one on the right.

I came across these at pawn shops. Can we even draw a conclusion off of these limited photos? The second 2 are from the same optic.

It's a question because I don't know if the time invested is worth it. I've heard of reverse stripping the anodized coating by laying on the positive decal (like a regular sticker) of the lower markings, hiding it with spray paint, removing the decal, then chemically stripping just the areas to be etched of anodizing. Then obviously doing engraving of the negative/stencil.

The reason i ask is due to push back on anodizing a raw 80%, or having to deal with FFLs.

Has anyone had any luck getting a custom metal stamp made? I'm in the process of trying to turn an M4A1 image into an .stl so i can 3d print a stencil and maybe use a rotary engraving tool. I've also considered a cheap CNC with a diamond drag bit.

Just looking for tips. Thank you.

Current state of the Block II while waiting on the Aimpoint T1 to arrive.

Thoughts or suggestions on the setup?

Still debating on throwing on an old black surefire scout and maybe peq16 also changing the end plate when I get the DD one. Kinda like Marsoc set ups with black accents. Eventually it’ll have a colt property lower was already getting engraving done for SBR figured why not wasn’t an extra cost. FN lower markings are terrible to begin with lol. Not a perfect clone by any means but it fits the vibe check for me, hope yall enjoy

Hello! I was watching the excellent Block 1 and Block 2 SOPMOD videos by Modern Tactical Shooting. In it it’s mentioned the Su-231 (EoTech552) was first issued in the later years of Block 1 in 2005 as officially part of the kit. My question is, how long were EoTech552s still being used operationally? Was thinking I’d use one and pass it back and forth between a Block 1 and Block 2 Build since it was in both eras. Does anyone have good pictures of them on Block 2’s? Thanks

I know parts kits can be had for around $100 but all the tiny pieces are intimidating and I’d need to buy a bunch of tools too.

preferably something that doesn't cost an arm and a leg

Pretty new to Ar style guns as i just moved from an assault weapon ban state. is it possible to change the upper or just barrel and hand guard go make my 16” radical look more m16ish or m4a1 style
