    It is great. No issues and groups well with Federal Match 168gr SMK.

    I switched the Vortex scope out for a Leupold Mark AR scope and am pretty satisfied. It came with the Leupold custom BDC turret for 168gr SMK too.

    What upper?
    Any reason you went with Colt mags over Glock? Glock seems to be the more popular choice online.

    Older model matrix upper. Don't think they sell it any more. That gun was my serial number 001....

    Colt mags are cheaper, easier to load and made of metal. Plastic glock mags get chewed up by the mag release and aren't held in securely after a while.

    That's a 14.5 with pinned/welded comp.

    Gucci is kind of my thing.

    I like all the cans. My piston collection:

    Got some DI stuff as well. Need to get a few stamps and build some SBR stuff with suppressors as you have.

    Mossberg 930/Springfield XDM do defensive duties.

    When your friend tells you that he snapped off the head of a hex wrench in a gas block screw, which he was removing in order to clean out the gas tube...

    Just unboxing stuff and making room.

    Have a BCM Gunfighter stubby VFG coming in this weekend and a Magpul armorers wrench.

    Once my lower is cleared (hopefully tomorrow).. it’ll be time to assemble the lower and change the muzzle device out, get to bore sighting and minor adjustments.
