Hey Y'all, this is my very first post on here. I have been looking to build one of these two for a very very long time. First I was going to build a SAMR upper using a BCM base parts. Then got thinking about the MK12. I am on the BCM website for hours and hours each week weighing in the pros and cons. Then I decide to the SAMR. Then I get to reading and thinking, hmm, do a BCM MK12 build. Start that parts list and run the numbers in cost. Then the Marine in me kicks back in... SAMR. I have most of the parts to build a BCM SAMR. BCM has actually lowered the price of the barrels since I started thinking of the builds. Going on two years now... Want to use it in the field here in Texas for coyotes and pigs. Also like to work my prac at the range and stay frosty on what Uncle Sam taught us. I like that the BCM has a 1/8 RH twist since that what we had on our A2's. Then I get to thinking weight, and the coolness factor of the 18" barrel and a PRI hand guard of the MK12. Found that the SAMR is less costly to replicate then the MK12 which added up fast with To Spec upper parts. I work for the State of Texas so I kind of am on a budget. Running 62 - 77 grain ammo. Personally found my groove with the 68 grain. After I put one of these two together and reincorporate financially, then I'll drop in the SAS-E.
Which one would you choose if you had to choose one? What's your experience, Thoughts or Choice?
Thank You for your time,
Mark
