| That’s a sexy girl. Enjoy her in good health.

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” |

| Got a couple surprise emails this morning that the lower and suppressor were approved! Took less than 48hrs, beating my previous record of 6 months  Got it home, and like any responsible AR owner promptly attached many things. Still need to mount the LAW Tactical side folder and install the FRT, but other than that she's ready to rock!   quote: Originally posted by m499:
Is that a new handguard from KAC? URX 5? 6 ??... It's a big departure from the mount design of the URX4.

RAS 5. As far as I know this is the only upper to have it so far that's available to the public.

| The NFA branch must have been on a Form 1 approval kick or something yesterday. The 7 Form 1s that I submitted on May 24 were also approved yesterday. Let us know how you like that beauty, I’m sure it’ll be a great shooter.

I’ll have to see how well it works on this one, carry over from my 14.5 guns. Basically a quick way to get some more length out of the sling and have the gun hang more vertically off to my side.

Ah.
On my rifles I just use one QD mount about 2/3 of the way towards the rear of the handguard, and then if I need more/less sling length I just slide the quick-adjust on my VCAS sling. Simpler and faster than mounting multiple sockets and then switching the sling's attachment around.
Definitely, my slings have that as well and majority of the time that’s how I’ll do it. It’s less about the extension and more about the rifle hugging closer ultimately for me but found it kills two birds when I want both. Just my quirk in rifle set up I found I liked having the option for
