Check with Steve at SR Armory in Woodstock. He had an FDE set not too long ago.

Meh on the Spikes. The Aero M5 is a much nicer setup IMHO. I was not a fan of the design or machining/finish of the Spikes set I got to finger bang. The Aero seemed better made.

Hell, if I was able to afford one for 338 lapua, I would. I want cans for the rifles I dont own YET., not just own now. That said, I would never buy a dedicated 5.56 can unless it was WAY lighter. Even then, meh.

IMHO anything less than 10.5" would suck ass in 5.56 You can get enough dwell time in most large gas port barrel offerings to reliably run 10.5" with a carbine gas system. Also, take into account suppressor warranty if you have one AND/OR want to go super short on 5.56. I will not say you...

You could be correct. Just not aware of that issue myself. I know they have had battery cover issues in the past, but not sure if related. I would always recommend the PRO, pretty damn rock solid for the $$ The MRO seems pretty sweet as well. The few I have messed with seemed pretty solid and...

Not battery orientation, they did not hold up to reliability claims they advertised. Many were failing/shifting POI in extreme temperature condition. There were other details as well, but.... I still have my Eotech and a rifle setup almost identical to the one in the pics. So far mine has been...

In before Eotech haters start.

Don't let Laufen near it. It will turn into a rusty looking mess...lol

Absolutely no reason to buy a poly AR lower with the current price of forged ones so low. I have had one and it sucked ass. Fit was way to tight. Very rough and just didnt seem very robust. ...and then there is this from a couple years ago...

Any more than they have already??

Also, if it is just a plinking rifle, I don't do it. I just load mags and go.

@cmshoot Has a good procedure.

I have a couple KCI and they run fine but yes, why buy those when Magpuls are right there $$ wise. Still letting the Magpuls go a minute though. I just don't have the 100% confidence in them since their initial release that had issues. Maybe im just paranoid. Then again, I have several 19...

The AK reliability will be challenged here as many side by side test showed the AK have as much or more problems than an AR. Im not going there. but just noting this will be argued.

This ^^^^ WTF??

@dougiemac

I could assist as well if he cannot make it to you. @Leshaire may be helpfuk to list what you are buying in one post and ad to it as you go. This would help us determine what left if needed or if you will run into possible comparability issues.

When will you do this one again? I saw your other sniper course, but I cannot do $600 right now, even though it sounds fun as hell! lol

Welcome here! Glad you came over! Tons of knowledge here folks.

That sounds like it would be pretty fun. I too am FAR from being an optics/long range expert, but hope to gain as much knowledge as I can moving forward. Commenting on BDC, yes, pretty much useless unless you are only going out to a few hundred yards (then hold off would probably work just as...
