With my first tax stamps showing up, i wanted a shorter 5.56 to haul around and decided to build a 10.3". Got a lot of the parts off of EE and out of my spare parts bin. Here is what i ended up with.

DIY YHM Single chamber brake.
10.3" BA Hanson .625" barrel. Gas port measured .077"
Pinned BA gas block
Unknown gas tube
10" ALG V3
Aero upper
PSA Premium BCG
Unknown Charging handle
Unknown forward assist/port door.
Holosun HS403R
Streamlight Protac RM1
Magpul MBUS

PSA lower
UnbrandedAR ELG Lower parts kit.
H1 buffer
Carbine spring
Magpul trigger guard
SBA3
Reptilia grip


Threw it all together and put some spray paint on it. So far i have only put 200 rounds through it. Shot XM193 and M855. I originally outfitted the gun with an H3, it was not locking back on empty suppressed so i swapped to an H1. I fired a total of 4 rounds unsuppressed, locked back on empty. I don't plan on ever running this gun without a can on it...

Thanks for looking!:cool:

Nice build. I like the 10-12 inch rifles/pistols. For any reasonable SD/SHTF range it has everything you need, and is still a manageable length with the can.

Upgraded to some Midwest Industries backup sights. Bought a Grey SBA3 for super cheap and wanted to use the black one on a different build. Ran some more ammo through it but im finding it difficult to shoot alot with ammo prices the way they are.

Changed out the light mount for an arisaka inline and swapped the charging handle with a BCM Mod4b. Its amazing how big a difference the little things can make some times.

How’s the gas?

Outside with the larger 30 cal can its completely unoticable. Shooting indoors with the k can is mixed depending on ammo but its really not to bad, I have shot much worse.

Upgraded to a Surefire and SR07. Tossed the optic on a Reptilia Lower 1/3 but now I cant see my irons through the optic. Probably going to have to find a different mount, might go ADM.

Got an ADM Mount, its a cowit but is a lower 1/3 with this optic, i like the QD feature. I swapped out the timber creek handstop for an Arisaka indexer and used some inner tube bands to secure the SR07 in addition to a ziptie at the rear. I have a resonator K in jail that i want to try out on this build.

YHM Kurz kit with single chamber break.

Recently fell in love with 1.93 height optics swapped the mount out. Also picked up a dedicated sling for this gun instead of swapping my other sling around.

Changed the optic to a holosun HS503G with the ACSS reticle. I got use to the higher red dot on the 1.93 mount and I have really come to enjoy the benefits of a higher optics mount so I have been putting Unity Fast mounts on everything. I use the rear sight aperture within the optic mount and run a flip up front sight. I actually had planned to part this handguard and barrel out and replace it with an 11.5" so I stripped all the rattle can off. I'm now on the fence about going 11.5. Here is how she sits now.

What's the point/purpose of the Fat Cat?

To suppress the flash and sound signature of supersonic centerfire rifle cartridges. :p

Clint, It wasn't really an analytical decision. I like my turbo K and decided to get the Fat Cat instead of a Turbo K "reduced blowback". First impressions are great, it sounds good, handles well, and flash is kept to a minimum, even on the 10.3".

I'm quite pleased with my Turbo K, especially for the size/weight/price, and was toying with getting another dedicated can.

I didn't directly A-B them but as far as sound/weight/length with the drills I run, I did not notice a difference. Ill have to compare them more directly and ill do some low light to check flash between the two.
