skeeter7 Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 Nice looking rifle! I'm currently building something similar myself. Just ordered the 15" MI keymod rail system and I'm on the hunt for a 16" barrel as mentioned in your other thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gray05 Posted March 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2016 UPDATE: I was really disappointed with the BDS sling that I originally bought. So I swapped that out for a VTAC. Love the VTAC. Birdcage is gone. AAC muzzle brake is fantastic. Really helps with controllability and will greatly discourage anybody from standing next to you while shooting. EOTECH 512 is gone. I got rid of it in favor of a Leupold AR 3x-9x scope and promptly returned it when the news broke of their issues. In the distant future I do hope to replace the gas system with an adjustable one and go with a light weight BCG, buffer, and spring. I think it'll help with recoil and weight. This gun doesn't cycle properly with a suppressor on it. I'll be trying to figure that out and there is a thread on this issue linked below.

Rsquared Posted March 23, 2016 Report Share Posted March 23, 2016 Yeah, you definitely need to go with an adjustable block with the suppressor. Otherwise, you're over-gassing the hell outta that thing. Sorry to hear you weren't happy with the BDS sling. What was it you didn't like about it? They're the only one's that I'll use these days. Just curious. Everybody has their own preference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gray05 Posted March 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2016 The BDS seemed well made. I just didn't like the design. It wasn't particularly substantial, comfortable, or practical. The gun never hung how I wanted it to. The hardware (and the ability to swap out hardware) was lacking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robocop1051 Posted March 24, 2016 Report Share Posted March 24, 2016 Don't listen to R2, he's senile. The VTAC is awesome. When your ready to suppress, look into an adjustable gb, and possibly a new charging handle (I don't remember which one you have). The PRI M84 Gas Buster charging handle is designed for suppressed rifles... but it's big and bulky, not ambi, and costs $90. The MechArmor TacOps-1 has tighter tolerances that make it suitable for suppressed fire. It's also big and bulky, but it IS ambi and is free when you buy a MechArmor trigger (check out our promo). Just sayin... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
