Shift Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 Do you have the 2 inch barrel extension to get it to the proper military length? Seeing as how you have all the military bar codes and QR decals on your gun and all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Probotector Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 I used to dislike the SCAR platforms because of their aesthetics. That however changed with this beautiful VFC AEG.    The MK16 is still ugly as sin. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
OriginUK Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 Anyone know a good specterDR to go for that doesn't cost the earth?

TheFull9 Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 @Shift PM'd me with an interesting question regards using the new Magpul light mount on SCARs with barrel that only just protrude from the main body of the rifle, I thought I'd share my findings. Â Spread the wealth and all that. Â You're very limited with rail space on a SCAR vs the handguard options for ARs and when you're running a CQC barrel and don't want to add a rail extension for whatever reason this can leave you quite cramped up on the forend when mounting a light. Â Now you can use the Magpul mount either SEALs style i.e. if you're right handed you'll want the left-handed mount then attach it upside-down on the right side of the gun near to a vert grip and use the thumb to actuate the light switch by going underneath the rifle. Â Alternatively this mount can go on the 12 o/clock rail when using either a traditional flat or thumb-over-bore grip, with either a hand stop or no foregrip. Â Unfortunately the front sling loops prevent mounting in the intended fashion to the 3 and 9 o/clock rails but as it turns out the light will end up in the exact same position if you simply attach it up top as shown in the lower picture. Â Just bear in mind if you've not got any imperial allen keys (as are generally supplied with more expensive US Surefire mounts like Gear Sector and HSP) you'll probably want to pick up a set, but they can be had for around a fiver on ebay.

OriginUK Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 (edited) I went with this option instead CK, although I do see that would hold it further forward if preferred; Â Â I've also changed the charging handle to the other side on my TM Scar (as pictured) Edited February 24, 2014 by OriginUK Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Shift Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 (edited) Thank you CKinnerley!Your first picture is exactly what I was hoping the setup would turn out like. I don't think my setup will be as low profile as yours with a SF scout or other tube type light as I will be using a M3X or TLR with switch but I think it should free up my hand guard nicely. It also doesn't appear to protrude past the gas block so a suppressed CQC setup might work out well also.Now, just to find some cash for the mount.BTW, where is everybody finding those barcodes and QR decals? I'd really like to have some. Edited February 24, 2014 by Shift Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FTZ-WildeCard Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 I think the barcodes and QR stickers are part of the VFC SCAR packages. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Probotector Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 (edited) I think the barcodes and QR stickers are part of the VFC SCAR packages. Â Nope. Â I got mine from Toysoldier. Too bad I haven't found a scan on the webs, otherwise I'd have done it myself. Edited February 24, 2014 by Probotector Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Warning Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 I've also changed the charging handle to the other side on my TM Scar (as pictured) quick question how did you go about switching the charging handle over? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pdubyuh Posted March 3, 2014 Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 (edited) I have the Elcan OriginUK posted and did the exact same thing.  https://www.facebook.com/#!/photo.php?fbid=10152064283150853&set=t.100001814237444&type=3&theater  I used a games workshop paint to do it I cant remember which one exactly ?

OriginUK Posted March 3, 2014 Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 quick question how did you go about switching the charging handle over? I found I had to take the upper receiver off and remove the barrel assembly. The charging handle then pulls all eh way back, twists, and pulls out as one whole piece. You can then click it back in the other side.    I have the Elcan OriginUK posted and did the exact same thing.  https://www.facebook.com/#!/photo.php?fbid=10152064283150853&set=t.100001814237444&type=3&theater  I used a games workshop paint to do it I cant remember which one exactly ?
