    Of course! Always glad to offer help if I think I have something useful.

    Awesome. Hope it works as well for everyone else. There is some thought that goes into it initially, but It's actually a lot more intuitive than it sounds.
    The only thing to keep in mind is that since your dot is off axis when canted to the side like that, you need to sight in at 100 or so, because your trajectory will change dramatically and fall off to whichever side your rifle is canted once your bullet crosses your sightline(secant?). This is the only drawback to using this method. So accurate shots with your reflex sight still need to be taken with your rifle upright and level. But Inside of and slightly beyond your sight-in distance when canted, though, it's the biz.

    I'm too poor for a rmr or doc sight on my acog haha, I practice the BAC with my acog. It's a bit hard at first and awkward. After a while you get kinda used to it. Anything under 20 feet is still hard for me to process.

    I used to be fine using the BAC when I had my RCO, but trying to keep up with friends who were using their T1's and eotechs when doing speedy drills got old after a while. I didn't want to lose my reach by getting a dedicated dot, so I just bent over and threw down for the ECOS. Now that i've been using it for a while and figured out all of these little tricks, I get a headache just thinking about using the BAC. Haha.

    I would swap it for a T1 or any on the 1-4 or 1-6s on the market. But I'm not a fan of Acogs at all. The rest of the rifle is badass though

    I'll be honest I love the ACOG but I would like to get back into local 3 gun matches out here and the ACOG isn't for that and thanks

    In that case I'd go with a 1-4 or 1-6. There are plenty on the market now for all price ranges. I've got one from each end of the spectrum. Swarovski z6i BRT on my 18" gun and Burris MTAC on my 16"er.

    don't worry, it won't be an issue until 6 months from now when they'll think about shipping it to you

    Unfortunately this is true :(

    PSA is like the NFA, send them your money and try to forget about it. One day you'll get a happy surprise in the mail

    It'll give me time to add up the parts as my paycheck a roll in.
    I'd care if this lower was the one I'm making a SBR from, but this lower will just be for my 6.8 build, and possibly a 16" (or 14.5" pinned and welded) 556 build.

    Seeing the third gen section forced me to get a Ford...
    you need to call them and fix or it'll never go anywhere and it'll get cancelled. dealt w/ that when i ordered my blem lower on black friday. they dont tell you before it gets placed that you need to put the FFL address in for shipping.
