mimesis Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 Wow, haven't seen one of these yet--well done. All these real steel parts make me feel like such a cheapskate. I think you can get a replica Omega 12" rail with the FSP cutout, but not the RIS II. Until Madbull/Socom Gear hurries up and releases some more, you can't even get a regular 12" M4A1 RIS II. Very frustrating. Link to post Share on other sites
kojak Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 Yeah it's crazy that they never made it in FDE; for once Uncle Sam is in the lead. You can still get a black one if you buy a Socom Gear SOPMOD 12" AEG. Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure if I'm gonna swap the grip for a Tango Down style... The ZM grip just isn't doing it for me. Link to post Share on other sites
gilla409 Posted October 14, 2010 Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 Yeah it's crazy that they never made it in FDE; for once Uncle Sam is in the lead. You can still get a black one if you buy a Socom Gear SOPMOD 12" AEG. Which is exactly why I bought one! That, and it's the most logical base gun for a Recce build. If only it had Colt trademarks on the receiver, it would be pretty darn close to a Block II. I'm happy with the Daniel Defense trademarks though... it should go well with my PMC loadout (which is still a work in progress.) Link to post Share on other sites
slu Posted October 15, 2010 Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 (edited) Trying to get more "legit Block II" on this. Soon to replace the ACS with a black LMT SOPMOD. $40 extra for FDE is not worth it in my book. Didn't change too much, mostly stuff from spare parts bin, but I feel it looks it a bit more "legit". ACS -> LMT, SF brake -> KAC hider, TD panels -> KAC panels. The RIS is indeed a DD one. What I like about the LMT is that it's a bit shorter than the ACS. For me, the ACS sits flush against the receiver for nose to handle, and the LMT sits at the first notch. First notch is better because it frees the ASAP for shoulder transitions.

-=OGGY=- Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 (edited) That looks great slu! I've got two questions for you; what is the white/grey bit behind your flash hider and have you considered using a issue FSP? -OGGY EDIT: I think you will appreciate these pics of real Block II M4/M203's: http://www.militaryblog.jp/usr/g75goodenough/qalat.jpg http://www.militaryblog.jp/usr/g75goodenough/2zfpbti.jpg Edited October 16, 2010 by -=OGGY=- Link to post Share on other sites
slu Posted October 17, 2010 Report Share Posted October 17, 2010 That looks great slu! I've got two questions for you; what is the white/grey bit behind your flash hider and have you considered using a issue FSP? -OGGY EDIT: I think you will appreciate these pics of real Block II M4/M203's: http://www.militaryblog.jp/usr/g75goodenough/qalat.jpg http://www.militaryblog.jp/usr/g75goodenough/2zfpbti.jpg Thanks OGGY! The grey bit behind my flash-hider is a CW/CCW adapter. The silver bit right behind the hider is just a washer. I use the CW G&P steel outer than came with the WOC that this was based off of a long time ago (the barrel is the only part that remains externally, but internally everything is still G&P, until they break). The VFC NTSS kit is CCW, so for now I have to use it. The adapter was originally anodized black, I later stripped and refinished in Alumahyde "SS," but as you can see the match is terrible. I have considered using a normal FSP. I like the unobstructed sight picture with a flip down, though I agree it loses authenticity. The sight is an ARMS #41B, so folded up it bears passing resemblance to the stock FSP. Thanks for sharing those photos. I've actually never even seen a real Block II M4 in use, much less ones with M203s. I'm glad to see black LMTS! Those are not FSP models, though, I don't even know if FSP cutout models are being used. Any idea what low profile gas blocks they use? Link to post Share on other sites
kojak Posted October 17, 2010 Report Share Posted October 17, 2010 DD gas block, and if I'm not mistaken the FSP was one of the candidates before the M4 RIS was selected. Link to post Share on other sites

nateo200 Posted October 17, 2010 Report Share Posted October 17, 2010 G&G GR16 v3... Not much has changed but this gun has been with me for a while now. Very reliable and IMO very accurate and long range...it shoots about 350 but can outrange allot with the tight bore barrel. Link to post Share on other sites

mimesis Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 (edited) I know it's totally the influence of EOTechs, but it just looks as if the optic should be mounted the other way around. In the few photos I've seen, the Pride Fowler is mounted back where the rear iron sight would be, not mid-gun where you'd put a conventional reddot. Any thoughts?

DesertFox Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 I believe theres a version of the pride fowler with back up rear iron sights built in. So in that way if you mount it in the back, you won't need any additional rear sights. Link to post Share on other sites
RacingManiac Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 Yeah it was not bought initially for this gun, and if I got the regular Irondot(which I believe don't use the Pride Fowler dot), I probably won't need riser. Link to post Share on other sites
