Unrelated to OP, but related to a few of posts mentioning the March 1-10... I had the Gen2 version with the FMC-2 reticle and returned after a few days. I need/ want my LPVOs to have very bright reticles (NF NX8 & ATACR, Vortex G3) and contrary to the posts above, I found the brightness to be...

Id say conditions and eyes dictate what is going to be comfortable. My eyes tend toward the "more sensitive to light," so if im at an outdoor range and theres a lot of sky or reflective surfaces (eg sand berms and such), something with a modest tint cuts down on the strain. I used to like...

I second/ third the above. The only reason to need them is a) you want predrilled hole used for P/W to line up at 6:00 or b) you want the P/W to line up at 6:00. Personally, I ignore A, but shim for B. I guess... there is an addendum to A. The standard length flashhiders for 1/2x 28 have...

I have a few STI/ Staccatos, and a Platypus on the way (I waited for the bull barrel and more aggressive grip options) If the goal is to ignite passion, the Platypus seems like a good choice. The standard buying process affords plenty of options and the number of color options means you can...

It's a MWS in 308/ 762. I haven't tested for accuracy, though if I get ambitious, as the weather warms, I'll bring a scope to the range one day and do so. Sadly, I am not one of those shooters who can produce amazing groups with low magnification. I do have a 16" 5.56 and a 22" 6.5 CM both...

This seemed a fun way to contribute to the LMT page... Despite the monolithic upper not being the lightest, or even a light option, I had it and wanted to do something completely opposite from the portly, 20" SS "precision" setup I also have. I sent a V Seven 14.5" flutted barrel to D...

And especially if you're less concerned about being at the limit of not-NFA...

There are 3 options, if you can find them. The standard will work with a 14.5, the extended for 13.9 and the extended XL for 13.7... While not in stock, Bauer Precision has the two extended versions side by side HUXWRX notes the OAL of the (13.7) XL is 2.96" Bauer notes the OAL of the (13.9)...

HUXWRX, at least for 5.56 flash hiders, will get a 13.7, 13.9, and 14.5 to the required 16. This is from their site for their standard FH: "The Flash Hider-QD 556 is designed to mitigate flash when unsuppressed. Muzzle device length is 2.3 inches, length added to barrel is 1.7 inches (on...

Single digit splits...? lol. Yes 13.7 vs 13.9 vs 14.5... that was the 3 way split.

Much of my time spent staring at my various builds, pondering swaps of this or that into that or this is almost purely in the service of those itty bitty hairs. :ROFLMAO:

It will also depend on what thing youre pinning and the barrel profile. Some flash hiders and brakes are are long enough to bring a 13.9 to the 16" OAL. So, were you choosing to P/W whatever that brand/ model is, you'd be over by a bit. Ive got a few OSS/ HUXWRX and their normal muzzle...

What optic and use do you anticipate? I have a 7.5" and a 9.5" barrel from Beyer Barrel that I have been very happy with. The 7.5" worked well with everything, while the 9.5" had to go back because it was misfeeding. I don't recall what the exact issue was--it may have been the chamber or...

Good to hear. I have... more than a few HUXWRX cans and *really* like them on my gas guns. Its only the 300blk (which mostly shoot subs) that have other cans (SF and DA)--mostly for [necessary?] backpressure as well as [real/ said on internet] sound performance.

Veering off the OP... How does the FLOW 762 do with subsonic ammo? Despite loving flow thru suppressors, Ive not used them on my 300blk
