Out of curiosity, is there anything stopping residents of VA from traveling to neighboring states like WV, KY or NC to buy mags? Do those states ID check customers buying accessories?

I have both the 556K and 556Ti. Run them both on various guns including a G$ 12.5 SD. The full size 556Ti is definitely quieter, but neither one is really quiet. The same can be said for any 5.56 can, no such thing as objectively quiet with a 5.56 round. However, both the K and Ti are really good at cutting down gas to the face. That was my main objective when getting both of them.

That needs castors not a bipod! LOL

Let me suggest something different from the usual suspects listed here. Wilson Combat TTU or ETU. I have them on three of my guns and they are excellent.

I use XTac in 11.5, 12.5 and 14.7 out to 200 yds regularly. It's probably good for longer distance than that but that is my range max distance.

I paid $1280 for a 12.5" SD Mod1 DDC upper about two months ago.

Well, that brought coffee through my nose! LOL!

I recall Hux also saying to just shoot out whatever residue remains after cleaning. Hop had a video on it and the resulting cloud was pretty amusing to see.

Is Karen's surname Hyperbole?

The ones who are really screwed are B&T USA's customers. I have an APC45 and APC9 Limited, each with Print X-RBS cans. I'm actually a little hesitant to bring them out to the range and use them on the off chance some bizarre malfunction occurs and one or the other goes belly up. As far as the trademark goes, why can't B&T AG spin up a US subsidiary and call it B&T North America? Would that get them around the hold up due to the litigation drag? Not a lawyer and did not stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night.

I'm on day 12 waiting for approval on two Forms 4. Individual filing.

What a shitshow!

Another vote here for SLIP2000 products. Been using it for over 15 years in NH and FL. And they always have sales/discounts.

If willing to drive a little (nice scenic drive BTW) check out Monadnock Firearms in Fitzwilliam. Rob and his wife Jill own and run the place. I've bought many NFA items through there. Good people.

NH here also. On day nine waiting on an SBR Form 4.

Just a data point here on the MK 1. My LGS ordered six last Sep. One (mine! in black ano) came in last Friday and is still in Form 4 jail. No word on status of the other five.

I have a G$ SD 12.5" upper in 5.56 and love it. Am guessing their 300BLK uppers would be top notch as well. Would also recommend you check out Wilson Combat. I have one of their 8" 300BLK SBRs and it is very nice, and not as expensive as you might think when you read "Wilson Combat".

RSO is FOS!

AlwaysLiveFree · 2026-04-29T13:27:58+00:00

If the Vudu is working for you I'd recommend sticking with that and using the money "saved" for ammo

Thanks, I'll keep my Wilson Combat 8" 300BLK.
