    Looking for info on the C8 SFW CQB

    I'm motivated to build a replica of the C8SFW CQB upper after seeing it in the Vickers vol. 2 book. I can't find much technical info on it though.

    1. What is the barrel length?
    2. Is it heavy under the handguards like the regular C8?
    3. What sleeve is mounted at the muzzle? One of the Allen Engineering (AE) mounts here? http://aesuppressors.com/mounts/
    4. Is that the same threaded FH (Smith Vortex C8) that the regular C8 SFW has? http://www.smithenterprise.com/image...5.56_03.lg.jpg
    5. Gas port size?
    6. Anyone have hands on time with one? Thoughts?

    Thanks,
    Jason

    Thanks. I'm specifically asking about the CQB variant, which I guess is their equivalent of the Mk18 Mod 0.

    If it helps, the SEI part numbers for the Canuck Vortex are 1001-V-G6-A2-SBV (FH) and 1001-SBV (thread protector).

    Why don't you call Smith and ask. If you get lucky you might even get to speak with Ron. 480-964-1818
