    I didn’t catch that at first either. Even more badass.

    I didn't want to hijack your thread. BTW, you have a nice build. I was going to start a thread on a MK18(ish) build I just finished, but I figured I would just add to your thread!

    Can I join in as well? I finished the upper the other week, and got some final parts and pieces this week.

    That looks sick! What sling you running? And do you like your Insight setup? Can you own that in HI?

    Thanks. I use a Magpul MS3. The light and laser is a cool setup that I got for a great price. Not needed, and don't own NODs (yet), but definitely completes the look. It's a training can, pinned and welded to the flash hider, that is pinned and welded to the barrel; making the barrel over 16 inches.

    Edit: I would've went with a M300, but I found the M3X for stupid cheap.
