-wigs- Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 Ah hello mk18 brother. How do you like that double switch? I just bought a working peq and mini scout light for my mk18 . I already have a m3x so I might get that switch for another project and run both the peq and m3. As of now I don't really have room for the peq in the front cause it blocks my pressure switch Quote Link to post Share on other sites
amblin83 Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 Sorry to continue the brief derail, but does anyone use a RS Daniel Defence RIS II (the normal 12.5" carbine length one)? I want one in the UK but don't want to pay more in pounds than it costs in dollars... Â Your best chance is to buy them at list price plus shipping. I got someone in the states that's been shipping optics and magpuls to me but he'll only do it if you buy @ list price (so he can get his 'cut' for taking the ITAR risk). I'll ask him about the rails if you're interested. Â Â Friendly note for DHS agent: No, i'm not a terrorist, i'm just a toy collector......Don't waste tax payer money to come after me......

I haven't actually used it in the field, though, as I'm away from home for the summer and haven't found a place to play nearby. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Extraordinaire Posted May 19, 2012 Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 validtumoralarm, thank you for that picture. I've been trying to picture a T-1 w/ LT660 for awhile as I'm not really feeling the 553. Â Aside from that fact, my Block II build is complete. Have a look: Â Â -Ex 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I've been trying to picture a T-1 w/ LT660 for awhile as I'm not really feeling the 553. Â Yeah, the 553 just feels like more weight than it's worth and it'll always look funny unless you buy a real one. I'm keeping my 553 for my Mk.17 as I don't plan on getting a SpecterDR (don't like those), but the Mk.18 will have the T-1 from now on. There are pictures of them being used, so I'm not concerned about that. Â Since my T-1 is being stolen from the 14.5" upper, what optic should I toss on there now?

Â -Ex They are heavy beasts. I find that they tend to raise the centre of gravity a lot, so that your rifle has a tendency to want to flop over to the left or the right. I'm sure it's something you'd get used to, but it's quite noticeable if you've been using something lighter. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SteevoLS Posted May 19, 2012 Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 VFC Mk18 Â I moved a bunch of parts over from a different gun and added some brand new rail covers. Not sure what I'll end up doing with this cosmetically. For starters the Gear Sector handstop/mount and rail covers will be painted to match the stock and T1.

Reppyboyo Posted May 19, 2012 Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 It happens occasionally, just everyone else's gear look's far cooler than mine  That is the newest OB. The SCG N4 went to a friend. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Â I just passed the details, he'll need around a week to find 'good ones' new in box and well below the RRP to make a profit. He accepts paypal and will list the actual item on ebay if he could find one. That's how we..... collaborated in the past.... (i'll drop you PM if he finds one. ) Â Btw, the parts i ordered for my inok just arrived, yay!~~ Edited May 20, 2012 by amblin83 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
