I’d love to run some of those in my 300blk when my AFT suppressor bribe goes through. Issue is I haven’t been able to find any of that anywhere.Subs. Mostly Hornady 190gr Sub-X.

evidently, you didn't go blind. but do you have hairy palms?Man, I really thought "night-schwacking" was something I did as a teenager.
I have that same Crossman in FDE.
I worked with a guy once who, when he heard that, looked down at his hands… then looks back up at us and says “I don’t think that is true…”. He was looking very bewildered…evidently, you didn't go blind. but do you have hairy palms?![]()
What is this groovy app you are using here?12.5 home brew criterion core with superlative arms gas piston system. All groups where shot from the prone off the magazine. Factory black hills 77gr smk loaded to 556 (red box). Last group was 8 rounds because I can't count to 10 I guess when loading a magazine

Are you shooting into water or gel and recovering bullets there?I re-barreled this one and threw my K16i on it.

Not sure why but I love those magpul rail covers. I got a fn military collector m4 and it had the knights armament covers and they made the girl a bit too thick.BCM 14.5" SOCOM, Aimpoint Pro in a QRP2 with SDK 1.93" riser.
Colt 6940 cut and pinned to 14.5" by Adco, NF NXS 2.5-10x42mm and a 1.54" 0moa Badger Ordinance mount.
Waiting for funds to recharge before I add an offset T2 to the 6940 and probably a Magpul bipod. Any one have better bipod recommendations for a shorty SPR?

That looks awesome!![]()
How do you like the VCOG? Any issues not being able to dial elevation?
Tell me more about the Fortis. How is it such as upgrade?I send my pin and weld jobs to master 1911 pistol smith Matt McLearn. His TIG work is unapproachable.
I keep a supply of Vltor A5's on hand, yes. I also use the BCM MK2 recoil system.
The Fortis K1/K2 castle nut design is really a giant upgrade.
I do like the VCOG. I have only hade that gun to the range three times and only put to 300 yards. If the weather lets up here I will take it to another range and try longer distances. So far no issues.How do you like the VCOG? Any issues not being able to dial elevation?

I'd be interested to hear your experiences on it. Trying to narrow down between ATACR, VCOG, or a March (VCOG currently winning but mainly because of street price).I do like the VCOG. I have only hade that gun to the range three times and only put to 300 yards. If the weather lets up here I will take it to another range and try longer distances. So far no issues.
Is Matt McLearn local? The map on the website says OH, but I see a 928 area code on his phone number.I send my pin and weld jobs to master 1911 pistol smith Matt McLearn. His TIG work is unapproachable.

In all seriousness. I think they perform as well as anything else on the market and for those of us that have a thing for KAC, that makes it worth it.
I do have one that may perform better tho, we’ll see. LMT MRP-L 11.5” Proof Carbon. Have yet to shoot it but I’ll do some comparisons for sure.
I have no dilutions that KAC is any better than LMT or any other higher end manufacturer.If you like knowing that you have the best, most Gucci rifle out there then yes. LMT and a few others I would list as equally as good for all intents and purposes, just slightly different strengths and weaknesses.
LMT is no better, just different and always heavier. My DI LMT rifles have always been slightly over-gassed which is a good thing for reliability but not as much fun when shooting suppressed. The carbon barrel is a nice add and sheds a few ounces but I don't find it to be any more accurate than the factory barrel. I have a Proof Carbon 14.5" middy for one of my LMT's.
I have no dilutions that KAC is any better than LMT or any other higher end manufacturer.
Depending on your definition of a few ounces, I may disagree with you there. I have 2 LMT’s that I’ve done with Proof carbon barrels and my experience has been really good. Specifically I saved a pound on an MWS.
I decided to use Superlative arms gas blocks with these and on function testing results were very good suppressed and unsuppressed.
Point taken.I weighed the 14.5" middy LMT barrel and the 14.5" Proof middy barrel and they were a mere 5.5oz different, a 1/3lb savings. I am not arguing that's not a valuable weight loss because it is, but a savings of pounds it isn't. I am currently moving that Proof Carbon barrel over to the MRP-L MLOK upper (once I get one home) in order to shave a few more ounces as well because ounces equal pounds mentality but at best I'll save a pound in total with the move to the MLOK upper, Proof Carbon barrel and a slightly lighter optic setup. My main goal isn't weight in general but simply a better balance with less of a weight forward bias like it had with the quad rail upper, LMT barrel and heavy optic.
I think the finish on the KAC and LMT are comparable and they shoot equally as well as the next (sub MOA), but the KAC rifle stock for stock is lighter and that's just due to the nature of the monolithic upper and barrel mating design of the LMT. Now on a large frame MWS I could see how you might save half a pound or even more with the carbon barrel but we were discussing the MRP-L 556 platform, not the MWS.
I’ve been contemplating swapping my carbine Buffer tube over to the A5 setup on my AR15 carbine and pistol. I have the RE-10/A5SR for my AR308 build I’m doing.About 2,000 rounds of India special green tip, PMC 5.56, and 77grain TMK down the pipe with out issue so far on the LMT SpecWar. The VLTOR A5, e-BCG, and mid length gas is a winning combo in my book. Going to play with a Geissele Super42 next range day.

Made a world of a difference in the guns I've installed them on. To me, there is not much of a reason to not have one.I’ve been contemplating swapping my carbine Buffer tube over to the A5 setup on my AR15 carbine and pistol. I have the RE-10/A5SR for my AR308 build I’m doing.
