    :rofl:All I had to hear was Fortis. They make good parts but way way WAY to overpriced IMO. Even for the CF cheek rest... It's a really pretty build but way overpriced for me, and my SBR is topping $1,600 at the moment...

    You could do a hexmag with orange grip tape. Or a hexmag with a coating, kind of like this...
    [​IMG]
    Or maybe a clear mag.
    Idk if anyone makes skeletonized/billet magazines...

    They are really cool. I wonder if they are strong enough that you could maybe dremel some of the hexes out... I really like being able to see the ammo inside the mag.

    Now if you've still got that money burning in your pocket, might I suggest the all mighty X-Products Skeletonized 50rd drum! This thing would look so sick on the rifle!
    https://www.xproducts.com/product/x-25-50-round-drum-magazine-ar-308-sr-25-2/
    I'm still trying to find if someone has tested the X-15 hex drum with 120~gr 300AAC, if it can run I'll be getting it soon.
