    I like my 6920 colt/aimpoint M4S combo and decided I wanted a midlength. I just brought a Daniel Defense M4V7 Mloc home. Aimpoint M4S inbound as well as a
    Geissele SSA-E trigger. Perhaps I will come back to report what kind of horror malfunctions occur.

    But I doubt that will be the case. Fingers crossed!!!

    Don't mean to be a dumb ass, smart ass or be contentious, but I have to ask: what is the purpose of the white-light WML on that rifle? It seems to be set up for longer range engagements...

    BTW, you need to try that at -5 degrees F. with the wind-blown snow. ;-)

    Not a dumb question at all.

    It isn't used for white light

    I heard similar comments from haters when I asked what it would take to hit small gongs at 600 yards. "IMPOSSIBLE" the internet said.

    I'm not sure what a video of you shooting prone supported with a scope has to do with your current post. In one you are shooting from a prone supported firing position, in the other you are sitting unsupported. In one you are using a free floating barrel, in the other you are not. In one you are using a scope, in the other you are using generic iron sights. The ammunition and barrel differences are unknowns.

    I consider your groups to be remarkable as Molon has test fired that ammunition for accuracy using:

    "Accuracy testing was conducted following my usual protocol of firing 10-shot groups from a concrete bench at a distance of 100 yards using my 24” Krieger barreled AR-15. This barrel has a 1:7.7” twist. The free-float rail of the rifle rested in a Sinclair Windage Benchrest and the PRS stock was stabilized in a Protektor bunny-ear rear bag. Wind conditions were monitored using a Wind Probe. Sighting was performed using a Leupold Competition Series scope with a mirage shade. The scope was adjusted to be parallax free at 100 yards."

    He states his groups to have been "Three 10-shot groups of the Speer LE 64 grain Gold Dots fired in a row had extreme spreads that measured: 1.11”, 0.91”, 1.30”

    For you to be bettering his, from an unstable shooting position, without the aid of magnification is highly remarkable.

    You've openly admitted that you're a mediocre shooter.
