    Board policy mandates I state that I shoot for BCM. I have also done work for 200 or so manufacturers within the firearm community. I am prior service, a full time LEO, firearm instructor, armorer, TL, martial arts instructor, and all around good guy.

    I also shoot and write for various publications. Let me know if you know cool secrets or have toys worthy of an article...

    I own a couple Radian uppers and a complete Radian which is going through a long term review currently (review for this board, not papered publications). Because of what I do, I don't pay usual pricing, so I'm not much help in prices to pay or where to go. I do know that Tom is in sales at Radian and is a good dude. They also have a sharp looking redhead, and another good guy who works there as some suited upper mucky muck who sometimes returns my texts when he isn't in Europe with wild woman or drunk. So I guess I could say I know them a little ...

    Two more pics which were already uploaded of the one I used to have. The one I have now is a dark titanium and black upper.

    I hope their 10.5” sbr has proper gas port. What’s the point of 416R barrel on a sbr or pistol though?

    I have not pulled it apart to check what the sizing is, and to be honest I'm too lazy to. I might text one of the guys to check, or call them up if there are other questions I had.

    While I would like to see a lighter weight version, there is still something to be said for accuracy in a short platform.

    I'm excited to see you are reviewing their rifle. I've been curious about them for a while now, but decided to hold off until there were reviews by trustworthy sources. Is that optic mount made by them as well?

    The mount is made by Spuhr. I'll point out in the review that I know some of the guys at Radian, but I know most of the players in the AR industry, and I don't think anyone can I say I've given a passing review to any company that didn't deserve it. I can tell you now that with Radian, the only negative so far is the weight, and since that is highly subjective, I hesitate to even call that a negative.

    Meanwhile, here is the Radian weapon that I currently own.
