    Excellent pictures and very nice rifles. It's a tease if you don't tell us about the builds, however. Looks like good quality stuff - what'd you pick (and why, where applicable)?

    You are correct sir.

    I went back and added build specifics to the pics.

    On the SBR, that was kinda a mish mash gun. I grabbed what I already had and just shopped for good deals on Arfcoms EE until I had what I wanted. I figure if you stick with names like Noveske, Larue, VLTOR and such, you cant go wrong with a build.

    The 20 inch gun, I picked those parts specifically. I wanted an AR platform for longer ranges but I wanted it light for ease of portability and point-ability. Since that pic, the scope has been replaced with a Nightforce 2.5x10x34 and the stock replaced with a Magpul UBR. I wanted more of an all around battle rifle. That WOA barrel is so light that it points like my 14.5 inch gun but I like the increased terminal ballistics a 20 inch barrel provides.

    The 14.5 inch gun is my SHTF gun.

    I still have to take pics of my .50 Beowulf SBR....oh she's a beast.

    Yeah, its a Horus Vision ASLI (Angle Slope Level Indicator). It does cosine and level.

    I thought it was the one from snipertools.com that was created by a former Marine sniper. Thanks for the clarification.

    Forgive my ignorance, but what is the purpose of a vertical foregrip on a butt stock?

    Its not a vertical foregrip....its an accu shot mono pod.

    It allows elevation adjustments in precise and stabile increments. Its more portable than a sand sock and its always attached to the gun.
