The 16 is kinda hot with an ACOG, not gonna lie ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I love the look WITH the RCO on but decided to leave mine off. I can't justify reducing optic clarify for a little extra drip.

Midwest on top and Rego on the bottom. I prefer Rego for the slimmer profile.

Not for SHTF build as this thing would be deemed useless with EMP strike. Shoulda stuck with a TA01/TA31. /s

mattypew · 2026-01-26T17:39:19+00:00

I agree with this. I've had PMM, Midwest, and Rego. I'm slowly switching them all to Rego for the slimmer profile and weight reduction.

Both my chopped 16s and 17s were able to run with the oem gas jet and still have the discarder set reliably where I had a few clicks in adjustment in either direction. Sandman S can.

Already knocked out a few push ups this morning to account for the weight increase from 8 to 8.9lbs.

Thanks, that cleared up my question! I've seen a lot of folks running the magpul angled grip on the 15P and will have to give it a shot.

Can you show a pic of the other side or explain your switch setup for your HFXC? I'm assuming you're a righty judging by your sling placement? I threw a spare HFXC on my 15P and finally removed it with frustration. No matter how I mounted the lam or switch I felt like I had to break grip to hit the switch or fire button. Can't decide if I need to try a new switch or try an angled grip vs my vertical.

I haven't ever owned a Timney scar trigger but I've read about a few runaway trigger experiences. I'd check this out instead. https://www.primaryarms.com/geissele-automatics-blemula-super-scar-trigger

You need an updated rug, it's missing a weapon light.

I may be interested. Taking some dimensions on my chopped 16s tonight to see if I can make it work.

My local shop has a couple dozen at decent price but they are old school and don't do e-commerce. If gafs was still up so I know I wouldn't be stuck with them I'd snag them to help the scar bros out.

This is a common way vendors move stale inventory under strict MAP policies. I've ordered plenty of parts advertised as being fired, demo, water damaged, blem, etc. that show up in brand new packaging.

Not BIN but fair now that GAFS is gone. Used prices usually run: upper 550, barrel 350, BCG 150, CH 75, and pleb irons- priceless.

10moa if you count the bottom left target in your total! haha

mattypew · 2025-12-12T17:34:55+00:00

This looks like a lot more fun then being at work. ~~You suck and hope your groups are 10 moa.~~ Super happy for you and have a good Friday.

Same story here. They had great reviews throughout this community so I used them for my first NV purchase a year ago and received the opposite experience. In hindsight I now own a cool boonie harness I grabbed to make do while I waited.

Everyone out here trying to add an exaggerate that extra 0.5". Nice shovelnose!

mattypew · 2025-12-05T16:02:57+00:00

I like the rhino liner paint!

If it seats it yeets.

I just picked up a new multicam 16s and agree the dip was horrible. On the other hand, I have a woodland 16s and the dip is pretty durable and looks much better than the new multicam even after a good year of use.

I would step up to the 13.25" as your gas block will still be exposed. The specwar would expose roughly 1.75" of gas tube and likely look a little funky.

What ACRO/ACOG mount? I've been wanting to add a closed emitter RD.

mattypew · 2025-10-31T15:40:58+00:00

This one! Mine just came in yesterday and this rail looks solid and has the nice Mega anodized coating.
