Matt.Cross Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 Heh. Yeah. He is going to lap the receiver, shorten (from 20" to 18") and rethread the barrel, reprofile the barrel for my suppressor mount, Cerakote and assemble the whole upper.Are you getting a two-point suppressor? What is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hooz Posted December 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 I have paperwork in proccess to pick-up my Spike's MRS-2 that should be back any time now (5 months in on the wait). http://www.spikestactical.com/new/z/suppressor-mrs2-30-cal-p-787.html I bought the MRS-2 to use mainly on my 300 BLK SBR but it's rated for .308, so I figured I'd get this gun setup for it too. Once the MRS-2 stamp and another stamp I am waiting on (9mm Multimount) come back I'll start the proccess of buying a Spike's LRS-2 which will be a bit more appropriate for this gun. It also uses the same mounting system as the MRS-2, so I'll already be good-to-go there. Spike's worked with OPS Inc to develop the MRS/LRS suppressors, so they use the same sort of muzzle device/alignment collar mounting system.

SDDuc996 Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 Out of curiousity, what were the reasons behind going with the MRS-2 over an AAC SDN6? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hooz Posted December 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 Out of curiousity, what were the reasons behind going with the MRS-2 over an AAC SDN6?So that I could do this... I really like the way the reflex cans suppress without adding as much to the overall length of the gun. The MRS-2 is about 7" long, but it only adds ~4" to the overall length. I have an 11.3" barrel and a 10" rail on my 300 BLK SBR, so it'll look a lot like the Compressor (pictured above), just a couple inches longer (I think they use an 8" barrel and 9" rail). I also have a McGowen Precision built CZ 527 chambered in 300 BLK, two 6.5 Grendel ARs and a couple 5.56 ARs that I'll be setting-up with the MRS/LRS mounts so that I can use the can(s) on multiple hosts. It just made sense to have this build done now instead of redoing it later. Once the two stamps I have pending now (MRS-2 and 9mm Multimount) are back, I also plan on getting the titanium LRS-2 which is more ideally suited to a .308 build. The LRS-2 uses the same mounting system, so either way I'm good-to-go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unforgiven Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 You put some thought into that build brother Hooz,I like that look ALOT.Very,very badass. <thumbsup> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SDDuc996 Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 I bought an SDN6 for use on SBR'd .308, .300BLK, and 5.56 platforms.I like the look as well, but I chose the SDN6 as it may be $200 more, but has 10-15dB more in sound suppression over the MRS-2. Unfortunately, you'd need access to the release to remove it, and that can't happen under a handguard without modding it.Post pics when you're done as that things going to look titties!

Hooz Posted December 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 I guess when my MRS-2 stamp comes back I'll have to do a build thread in the 300 BLK forum. ;D I also have another 300 BLK build in progress, but I need to finish this 308 first.

Hooz Posted March 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2013 So it's been quite a while since my last update. I have made some progress, but I changed the plan a bit so there is more waiting to do. I decided to build the gun in 6.5 Creedmoor instead of .308 as I orginally planned. So I sold my .308 barrel and I'm in line (6-8 weeks) for a Kreiger 6.5 Creedmoor barrel. But here is how everything sits right now. McMillan Tan Cerakote is done and all the parts (sans barrel) are here. I'm just not in a hurry since the barrel is still more than a month out. Also... I finally took delivery of my Spike's Tactical MRS-2 suppressor yesterday (after 7 months of waiting for the stamp). Since I mentioned it in this thread, here is a picture of it on my 300 Blackout SBR. Sorry for the crappy cellphone pics. It's all I had handy.
