And before you ask.. I dunno. More testing needed.

18" Stainless Faxon Gunner. Just waiting on the superlative block and slim brake to show up. Wish I had played around with lighter barrels sooner. These things feel like toys.
Here are a matched pair of AR' 5.56 pistols built from the ground up to be ACCURATE. Bartlein 11.5" 1x7 SS barrels with +1 gas system by Craddock Precision; V Seven billet receiver sets with matching forends; SLR adjustable gas block; Surefire WarComp; JP Full Mass Operating System (FMOS) bolt carrier group; Geissele ACH charging handle; Vltor A5 recoil system; TriggerTech Adaptable trigger adjustable down to 2.5 LB; just about every small part V Seven makes in titanium, with the exception of the Fortis K1 receiver end plate and castle nut. A three letter .gov agency you've heard of is currently evaluating these barrels for use in a counter sniper role.

What red dot is that?I'm all in on faxon barrels now.
14.5 p&w pencil
Primary Arms 1x Micro Prism. Absolutely love it. Have the new 3x as well.
Did that Unity mount require any modification to fit the G43?
Oh, awesome! How do you like the higher mounting? I get the whole natural head position concept. I've been wondering whether I'd rather have that, or a lower profile package overall...
The magnifier is a little tricky very little eye box , lower chin mount on the brace around teeth level. Eotech alone is fine but its nice not to have the magnifier hanging over the side since the magnifier will get limited use in the house. Outside the house naturally switch to the 7.62 although the eotech donut of death is very nice with the magnifier.Oh, awesome! How do you like the higher mounting?

Right on, man.
I use a magnifier at work (lower 1/3). Works well, but I have never used anything with the Unity height (I don't really have a problem sinking down a little lower for the 1/3, but it could be one of those things where I don't know what I'm missing).
The eye box is one of the reasons I haven't switched to LPVO (I like the option of infinite eye relief).
Recently completed 6mmARC with 14.5" Proof CFW barrel - I look forward to chrono'ing this barrel length. SanTan STT-15 billet receiver set; Geissele MK14 rail; SLR adjustable gas block; TriggerTech Competitive trigger; Vltor A5 recoil system; JP FMOS 6.5G bolt carrier group; OSS/HUXWRX brake - pinned and welded; DHD small parts; Fortis K1 receiver end plate and castle nut; Kahles K16i in Spuhr SP-3022 (1.5" high) mount; unnaturally ugly 20-RD Duramag (but they work!).
Really cool to see Proof putting an intermediate gas system on a 14.5" barrel.
I feel like a poor posting my pleb build in here, but I'm also kinda dumb, so I'm gonna do it anyway. I've since switched to Magpul .300BLK mags also.

Spikes GEN 2 matched receivers, BA 20" 223 Wylde barrel under a Mega Wedgelock topped with a Vortex PST gen2 3-15 with an EBR7C Mrad reticle. This little guy gets me quality long range trigger time without the cost of running my bolt actions.

Nice rig!
Holding out for a clone correct trigger guard, eh?
Just got the NF ATACR, put the Aimpoint on the LWRC. Realized after sighting the F1 in that I need the slightly longer stock, so that’s on order.

To get the eye relief perfect it's far forward and doesn't feel balanced, with the stock I'll be able to pull the optic back and all should be copacetic.
Haha i get so much shit for that. it has one now, i just suck at taking pics and this happened to be a glamour shot

This is my rattle can Core15 w/Eotech 512. Color is just the khaki color of the camo line in Rustoleum. Scared to paint it, as I had never attempted it before, but I like how it turned out.
My first two SBRs are largely complete... Eventually, I'll add a nomad or something more hush for the 300 blk.... But the sandman will work for now.

First kill with the custom .300 BLK with the Dead Air Sandman-S and my newly revamped 220 subsonic handloads.
1 shot, 1 kill… Right through the back of the head, and it exited through the mouth. It was a free-hand shot from about 10 yards away, instinct shot (I didn’t look through the scope). It started moving, and was in some fallen timber being burned for clearing, and I was going to lose my shot-window, so I had to take my shot ASAP.
Luckily, I spent many years instinctually shooting archery and bowfishing, so I am a bit of a natural shot. I don’t brag about much, but I will occasionally brag about my shooting skills. [emoji57][emoji1360]
Stretched-out this timber rattler is right at 47-48” in length, and about 3.5” at the girth.

I keep seeing all the RIS III popping up in media, but none for sale yet. Any idea when these will be available?
Parts bin/used parts gas gun build with a white oak barrel.
New video is up testing the brand new Otter Creek Labs Hydrogen L & S suppressors on my 14.5" 5.56 M4.
A quality 14.5" AR' will do just about everything reasonably well so long as you feed it accurate ammo and employ a good LPVO in a solid mount plus perhaps a RDS.
Life is easier if it's not overly heavy. This one weighs in at a very reasonable 6 LB 4 OZ. Components: SanTan Tactical STT-15L billet receiver set; Criterion Core C/L 14.5" barrel with mid-length gas; Surefire WarComp pinned and welded; Geissele 13.5" MK14 rail; Geissele charging handle; JP FMOS bolt carrier group; TriggerTech Competition trigger (3.5 LB); DHD Ionbond DLC coated small parts in lower - push pins, mag release, safety; V Seven parts in lower - titanium fire control pins, S7 tool steel bolt release; Vltor A5 recoil system; Fortis K1 receiver end plate and castle nut; Magpul plastic fantastic.

The 16" Recce format is my all time favorite:

Updated photo with the new stock and the Nightforce ATACR...
I just got the Spartan Valhalla bipod installed last night. Hopefully I can find time to get to the range tomorrow.
