Thanks for the kind words on the picture, I'm working to limit my potato pics to a minimum.
The sling is the SS Loophole by Hog Saddle.

Thinking about picking up one of the "Enhanced" versions shortly.

I like it as it allows a user to clip the sling into a belt for significantly increased stability off barricades and tripods.
I completely forgot to actually say what this thing is and what it does.
This is my 14.5" SR-25 E2 "ACC" (the standard ACC has a 16" barrel).
It has a MAMS under that 7.62 QDC/CQB suppressor.
The M-LOK URX4 handguard is 13" long (standard is 15").
The optic is a Leupold Mk6 1-6x with TMR-D reticle in a raised (1.93") and extended KAC 34mm mount.
The laser is indeed a BE Meyers MAWL-DA.
It is zeroed at 100 meters with 130gr SOST.
The KAC offset BUIS are zeroed at 50 meters.
Hog Saddle SS Loophole sling, with a Wiebad Lightweight rear bag (was attached forward at the time this picture was taken for barricade padding).
A KAC bipod slides onto the bottom rail section when needed.
KAC 20-round magazines with Magpul Magpuls (oriented to protect base of magazine and prevent floorplate loss) and Magpul 25-rounders.
Magpul MIAD 1.1 and STR with 0.70 pad round out the furniture.
It fills a GP role with a max effective range expectation of 500 meters on a point target with terminally effective ammunition during both daylight and complete darkness (with the addition of a UNS-A3 clip-on inline night vision device). While capable of respectable precision with match ammo, the reality is that the ammunition types to be used are not precision oriented, and therefore priority went to reliability, comfort, and handling.
It does exactly what I want it to do.

Jack,
Interesting and very unique setup.
How do you find that the 14.5" compares to the 16" in terms of blast/flash (without the can), noise (with the can) and your overall thoughts on pros/cons of a 14.5" .308.
I was batting around the idea of a 14.5" .308 a few years ago, but was advised against it repeatedly by very knowledgable and experienced guys, who recommended 16".
Thanks
