    nice rifle. Glad you are swapping out the UBR. Great stock but it is heavy, too heavy for a SBR that is, at least for me.

    From what I've seen and handled, a UBR can help equalize a front heavy SBR. I think it depends on the fore end/rail system and if one has a suppressor.

    I agree, but he doesn't have the suppressor yet. So for the current configuration it would appear that it would be back heavy. My UBR balanced my 13.7 barrel with Noveske pig and heavy Troy 13.8" rails well, so I was just assuming the 12.5" barrel and shorter rails would be lighter and not as balanced.

    I agree though that once he has a suppressor a UBR would probable be a nice touch.

    I disagree, I think its all user dependent.

    I had a UBR on my SBR w/ can and strongly prefer the CTR w/ A5 system for both weight reduction and recoil "reduction".

    I meant that from my observations and short time handling a friends SBR, a UBR seems to help balance out a front heavy SBR. I do agree that the end user preference will matter the most. I built my lower with a UBR, but do have a CTR on standby, so that I can try both out when the stamp arrives.

    I completely understand. I have a 10.3" barrel, 9" Centurion rail and AAC M4-2000 and the A5/CTR combo is great. With a heavier rail/longer barrel it may not be. I also run a VLTOR EMOD on my 12.5" with an SS barrel and it balances great, a UBR would be ideal on that.

    Love the UBR. very solid, but like others have said, its a bit heavy and I want an SOPMOD

    Nice gun. Your choice of socks is questionable though.

    I think we need you to give us a play by play on the rifle.

    I want to know how you like the SwitchBlock (SB)?

    And how well does the cutout rail work with the SB?

    Where are you going to put the light and will it interfere with the SB?

    I am buying that same upper and planning on putting a fixed sight behind the SB and a SF X300 in front.
