Which nightforce is that?

As you can see this 18” 6 ARC is a 100% clone correct Mk12.
Nice. I miss my 6 arc. Got specs for it?
Mk12 huh?
-Aero slick side upper
-Magpul Ejection port cover
-Peace Geeks/Unbranded AR ambi lower
-Larue MBT2S
-BKings LPK (actually really nice for the money)
-CMMG ambi mag release
-Magpul MOE grip
-Magpul PRS lite stock, generic buffer tube, spring, and H buffer
-SOLGW Exo 3 15” rail
-Rainier Match 18” bbl
-Aero adjustable GB
-Magpul bipod
-Slate Black handstop
-Odin works Arca rail
-Griffin Micro brake for my Rex MG7K with Plan A hub
-Topped for now with an Arken 4-16 in an Aero ultralight mount and a
-Romeo 5 in an Arisaka offset.
So I took mine apart. New stainless barrel, and new upper and lower receivers. I’m waiting on a parts kit to arrive to finish building it back up. I have a 6-rib Knight’s rail cover inbound as well for the underside of the pic rail. I went with a Rock River National Match 2-stage trigger for now. When the SSA’s go on sale again, I may grab one.
BKings is good shit. I’ve got 500 rounds of 6ARC waiting for a build. I’m tempted to grab the 18” BA barrel from BKings for $150 to play around with. BA barrel never did me wrong…accurate and quick.
Worth a shot. My Rainier isn’t fully broken in yet but seems to be putting 108 ELDMs into an inch or so and costs twice what the BA does.
I’m good with that. I’ve read good things about that trigger, and found a LPK with the RRA trigger included for a decent price, so I figured why not.
BCG installed. Currently in analysis paralysis about whether to put a light on it, and if so, what kind. It's pretty much being set up as just a range toy, "but what if..." keeps popping into my thought process.
Thrown a lot of parts at this rifle to get it going. But an SPR/MK12ish rifle in 6 arc.
Nice build. Currently putting together a 6ARC myself. What issues did you have with your build?
Barrel related QC and cycling. Gas system wasn’t cycling well. I’d recommend a VLTOR A5 system and adjustable gas block. Check the gas port with some pins and you should be good.
Had an undersized gas port on a replacement barrel after rounds were stripping material out of the bore.
Glad you got it figured out. My lower has a SOLGW A5 buffer tube and a Vltor A5H2 with their spring that comes in the kit. Also going with a Riflespeed adj gas block. Hopefully everything will work out.
My setup:
Aero ambi lower and no forward upper.
B5 precision stock
Geissele MK18 rail
18” BHW SPR/R
TT Adaptable
MK5 3-18

Basically finished my 6 ARC. Ready to shoot anyways.
Still want a K2+ or K2 XL grip. Badger Universal Safety to get selector on strong side. And a nice trigger.
Lower parts are Aero with Badger Ordnance Tactical Latch for charging handle.
Pretty happy with fitment on the Cmmg complete 20” upper and Brace Built lower. Zero play
Looking forward to seeing how it does

What buttstock is that?
Magpul UBR
What ARCA rail is that?
Thanks
White oak 18” SPR barrel, gessielle SSAE, smoke composites carbon fiber rail.
Come a long way from the SPR upper I picked up from white oak.
I know this post is a few months old, but what ranges in Alabama run those matches? I’m putting together an SPR-ish rifle and would love to shoot an SPR style match.

I’m a member of Brock’s Gap (Hoover). We do quarterly DMR matches.
Silver Creek Range (Mobile) also hosts DMR matches. I hope to shoot an SCR DMR match in December if work permits.
Thanks! I’m in Huntsville area, so Brock’s Gap would be close enough for a day trip. Are those matches open to non-members?
My CA-legal Mock12 (ignore the grip fin). I love the way the EF-X A1 stock mimics the angles of the Delta forearm. I can't wait to see how this thing runs when I get the Ops Inc brake installed. Also, the TriggerTech 3.5 lb trigger feels like it was made for this gun.
Don’t be embarrassed by the fin grip these days. Haven’t you heard? The cool way to shoot rifles now is without wrapping your thumb around the grip.
I hardly notice it when I'm calling coyotes in the field with it mounted on a tripod. I'll gladly take an ugly featureless rifle over a magazine-locked compliant gun any day.
But this thing is begging for a can and some fresh paint...

Absolutely. Last match was around 17-20 shooters, mostly non-members. Its on Practiscore if you search Brocks Gap DMR.
As @PBWalsh stated the following have DMR matches in and around Alabama
Brock’s Gap Training Center (BGTC) in Hoover, AL has quarterly matches open to member and non members. Registration is in practiscore
Silver Creek (SCR) in Chunchula, AL had quarterly matches open to members and non members. Registration is in practiscore
Steel City Precision (SCP) in Vance, AL is supposed to have DMR matches in the near future. Open to all and registration is in Practiscore
Quantified Performance has single and two day gas gun matches at Arena in Blakely, GA
Whats the details on the 556?
White Oak 16” SPR barrel
LaRue Stealth upper
AEM5
Colt A2 stock
SSA-E trigger
SOLGW BCG
Radian Raptor
Aero Lower
Badger 1.4" rings
Badger bipod
Credo 2-10x36
Looks excellent. Thinking of doing something similar. But with the Douglas barrel from High Caliber sales and an OCM5.
Finally got my AEM5 out of ATF jail so I'll have to throw a pic up here this evening.
That’s a NXS 2.5-10x42.
shout out for the LW M6 DMR. havent seen another in the wild before. mine has been outstanding out to 500yds with IMI 77. the little scope starts to fall short then
and the BA barrel one, cheap and does what i need it to. both at 1moa if i do my part.

My SPR rifles. Both have cans on hold, 6 months waiting now.
GGP set, 16” Proof 308 CF
GGP set, 16” 223 Wylde Douglas by compass lake. Probably my overall favorite rifle and is in my truck daily on the farm. I just switched it from a Pst ii 3-15 to this Whisky5 recently and really like it on this particular build.
