Re: MK12 MOD-0 LETS SEE EM!

This is a bitter sweet thread for me. I really like to look at everybody's rifles but being unemployed has brought my build to screeching halt

Re: MK12 MOD-0 LETS SEE EM!

Does anyone know what the front sight attachment is on the WOA SPR barrel? Cross pin or dimpled or nothing?

Re: MK12 MOD-0 LETS SEE EM!

That thing is crazy awesome Dr.Phil. Cant say I would have gone with that bipod choice though. Is it awkward to shoot offhand?

Thanks for the compliment.
I get a little OCD when it comes to the details on my ARs.
The 300 BLK spin on the MK12 has worked out very well so far.
A short 10" barrel with this cartridge has little to no impact on accuracy.

I have mixed feelings about the ACB-4 bipod.
It is actually better shooting off hand with the bipod than without.
The front section can be griped the same way you would the Magpul AFG and it does so very well.
Other things that it brings to the table:
- Very fast to deploy and adjust.
- The feet are very much like "Pod Claws" and my opinion is that it gives you all of the advantages of them without having the sharp talons.
- Tensioned traverse and cant function allows for an amazing amount of adjustment without having to come off the gun.
- Because the legs of the Bipod come back over the fore end and not forward, they are not in the way at all.
- With the legs stored to the rear, improvised shooting positions are a snap since you have a square contact point.
- The composite materials used in the bipod make it just about indestructible yet very light.

What I don’t like:
- Very low CDI factor.
wink.gif
Doesn't go well with the MK12 MOD0 theme.
- The traverse and cant feature require the user to support the rife in ways that feel awkward when compared to a traditional bipod.
(Envision a regular bipod with a swivel feature that is preset in tension and cannot be tightened on the fly.)
As someone who has used a pod lock and Harris bipod on my precision rigs, this can feel very odd when shooting.
- When mounted to a rifle, the use of other rail accessories becomes challenging and impossible with certain items.

I've been using this bipod since 2006 on different AR platforms and I have always come to the same conclusion.
In the end, the benefits of this bipod on an AR platform end up trumping the awkwardness of the swivel and negative CDI factor.

Great job and a beauty for sure.
Fantastic choice of parts.

This is my Douglas 18" SPR with DD 13.5 M4 rail which keeps my Mod0 company.
I have gone to a Nightforce 1.375" 20 MOA UniMount for the SN-3 USO scope with T-1 Aimpoint on a TNVC SAR mount.
I also have the OPS 12th, the #1 SPR accessory!

Thanks. I got it a few years ago through a group buy here offered by Scottmilk9. Beautiful craftsmanship. Picked up another non-engraved lower as well. Very happy with them.
 
Re: MK12 MOD-0 LETS SEE EM!

This is a better Pic than what i posted above. Anyone know of any rear sand bags that work well with carbine stocks. Been using the CTR and i find it rather hard to keep steady due to the pointed edge of the stock. I had planned a LMT Sopmod stock for my SPR lower, but it has me rethinking it.

The Larue POD would give you a little bit better base and the option to add a monopod which would be ideal. Otherwise, I've wondered about the viability of using a really high rear bag under the buffer tube.

Put the bag under the pistol grip instead of the stock...
 
Re: MK12 MOD-0 LETS SEE EM!

I like this thread. I am wondering, why do some rifles have fixed A2 type stocks and others have a MagPul type. Are both correct? What is the correct collapsing stock? To be absolutly correct?
 
Re: MK12 MOD-0 LETS SEE EM!

To be correct for a Mod 0, use a fixed A1 stock. For a Mod 1, an A1 or A2 is how they leave Crane. Pretty sure they don't leave Crane with a collapsible stock. What happens after that is up to commands/units.

The "correct" stock for the mod 0 is either the A1 stock or the LMT SOPMOD stock. For the mod 1 it would be the A2 or SOPMOD. However, it appears some folks will switch them out for their preferred stock once issued. I think current "as issued" stock for the mod 1 is the A2 stock.

No collapsible stocks left Crane Sopmod or not. All left w/ either A1 or A2 stocks.They weren't designed to function reliably w/out the fixed stock.
 
Re: MK12 MOD-0 LETS SEE EM!

A little field shooting after work today. Took her out to 660yd for the first time. This is the final group of the day. Light (0-4mph) variable winds from 07:00 to 09:00 direction. First shot was a miss (thought I saw a coyote--I know, excuses). Rest of shots were hits. Shot #3 was a low flyer, but the rest of the 8 shots grouped in a 2" vertical by 8.5" horizontal group near the top of the target (12 x 16" AR400 steel plate)

Another Mod1 to add to the list. Should be pretty authentic for the most part: Douglas barrel, KAC trigger, etc.

Good looking setup; let's be honest no one really uses FA on these anyway. Shame you can't get the can though!

Are you running a 16" barrel? If so, did you have to cut the diameter down to fit the Ops Inc. Collar? Or, did you buy the 16" already made for it?
