Welcome. It looks good but I've been running mine slick, would be using it otherwise.

No one seems to know whether the mk1 is 6061 or 7075 (like the HK mk1)
Looks good
The MK6 gives me glass envy. Awesome looking rifle!I also debated that Khales but went with the MK6 this time. Have had some time behind the MK6 but never purchased one for myself. I never liked the flicker effect but it never effected my actual shooting. Another Razor, or a M5Xi was on the list too. Couldn't pony up the cash for the M5Xi when I have no time behind the LPV variant. The 3-15 M5Xi on my Knight APC is excellent, and I'm sure the 1-5 would be the same. I'll save it for another build in 2017. Or if NF came out with a 1-8/10 that isn't CQBSS money, that would get my attention.
How is this thing shooting? I am still debating cutting down my Noveske 12.5" carbine gas CHF barrel (.071" GP) to 11.5" but either way I will be using DIY gas-block port inserts so I can make whatever size I need. I am thinking .065" gas-port for a 12.5" and .067" gas-port for a 11.5".
Sadly I have been traveling for the last 5 weeks and have yet to be able to shoot this thing. Only time I have had is to step out and shoot suppressed pistol with some subs out back. Was planning to head out today, but the whole family is sick as can be.
You may want to consider a .065 for an 11.5 build with a A5h2 / colt spring setup. And puts you closer to the smaller end especially if you plan on running a can at any point.

Update: Just finished up the final pieces of the build. KAC front sight, Handstop, Surefire M300C, SR05 Switch, and KAC offset mount. The head is exactly touching but still will spin off for a battery replacement. It is literally 1/1000 of an inch from not working. Here a few pics of the final pieces put together.

Don't know how I missed it the first time around but dang son, that's one hell of a nice rifle! Well done!!
