My go-to LMT/BCM/KAC 11.5 SBR build

[Jwknutson17]

So I have been playing around with SBRs for a long while now and this 11.5 is my go-to/do-all set up. It has seen some different configurations over the last 2 years, but this is what I arrived at. For now at least. This is my main go to HD rifle and also gets some hog/small game night hunting use lately. Parts are below..

Lower:

Lewis Machine and Tool Lower with LMT parts kit. SBR on form 1
Geissele SSA trigger group
Noveske QD plate with MS4 sling
Magpul SL Stock
Magpul K2 grip
Battle arms ambi
BCM receiver extension
BCM H2 buffer and carbine spring


Upper:
Vltor MUR 1A
BCM BCG
BCM Mod 4 CH
Aimpoint Comp M4s 2moa with Bobro QD mount
BCM BFH 11.5 barrel
BCM Gas Block and tube
Surefire SFMB-556 Muzzle Brake
KAC URX 3.1 handguard
KAC panel kit tan
Steiner CQBL-1
Surefire M300V scout light
GS scout mount
Surefire SR-D-IT dual switch


Surefire SOCOM 5.56-RC and Mini get swapped on it back and forth. Use PVS-7 3s with it and find this rifle optimal for that inside 100 yard night use. I use Mk262 mod 1s with this rifle and have had success out to 500 yards without a problem. I had a Geissele MK1, an aimpoint T1, and KAC micro irons on it before the CQBL was installed. Wanted the extra .75 inches of space for the CQBL. And also a little bigger objective in the optic for this rifle. Also figured that I can use the visible laser for a back up and then use the M4s as a back up for night. If it came to using the NVGs through the optic, I find it easier to get eyes on with the M4s then the T1. And the M4s balances out the rifle a little more with the suppressor on it. So I just slapped on a M4s that came in last week. Barrel has about 2500 on it and still preforms perfect. The way it sits in this configuration has not seen a whole ton of use yet. Soon as this snow melts a little here in the coming week (hope so), I plan to put a lot more rounds through it.

Comments welcome. Like it or hate it. Speak your mind. Enjoy.

I'm really diggin' it man. Maybe even slightly jealous a little ;-)

That's defintiely a go to war Riglet... no expense spared.

Is that Scout Light IR capable? Or is it just white only?

[Jwknutson17]

Thanks man. I really enjoy this rig. Should stand up to whatever I throw at it. Yes the M300v is the IR, and white light scout light. Not the most powerful IR light, but it gets the job done to about 100 yards.

Very nice rig. Well done.

Thank you Pappabear. I appreciate it.

Wow. That is a go-to-war piece, for sure.
I like the low profile of that Steiner CQBL-1.

Yes. I rarely give "Bravos" but this rig deserves it. Cheers.

Thank you. I spent a little time on the phone with the TNVC folks and they gave me some more feedback on the CQBL-1. It doesn't disappoint just as I hoped. Not very wide as you can tell from the above photo. I had to play around with a few different mounts and locations to get the light to sit in tight. But it ended up how I had planned. Just took a little bit to get there.

Thank you Billybronco!

Curious as to how you're liking the 7's over the 14? Are they Gen 3 or Gen 3+? Been thinking about calling TNVC one day here soon... window shoppin' their site is about to consume me lol!

I'm also really liking that Steiner... is that a Class 1 civilian legal or the Good Stuff?
