   The suppressor info is interesting.

   The only drawback to their recommendations is the SBR approach. While I agree totally with their position, it is expensive to buy an SBR and frustrating to have to go through all the hoops to get one.

   @George,

   You can get a 14.5″ gun with a pinned and staked flash hider (to turn it into 16″) and it will be legal, no registration required.

   Then, get a gunsmith to install a SureFire flash hider, and they (SureFire) have a suppressor that clips over the top of that flash hider, easy peasy. I wish SureFire would send me one to review – for free.

   No manufacturers seems to want to send me stuff to review. I’ve courted Henry to send me a X-model, and they politely tell me to go away.

   Of course, you’ve got to register that suppressor. Sorry. I can’t change that.

   I’m currently evaluating this, having loan of a couple components from a friend. The rifle has an ACOG I wanted to move a couple notches rearward. Unlike with a red dot, backups on a prism sight of any kind aren’t a matter of just flipping them up. The optic that just went south is going to, traditionally, need to come off the gun. The offset miniature RDS negates the need for that. It’s a pretty quick adjustment as well for +50 yds to 50 and in. Sneaky fast, just train it so you don’t end up with the chicken wing elbow. Consistency of the rest of the shooting position is still important so there’s no pass for lack of fundamentals.

   George, you can just run a 14.5 with an adjustable pistol brace. SB tactical clips right on a standard carbine tube. I run them that way so I can put any upper I want on any lower I have. As long as you built a stripped lower from parts and didn’t purchase it as a rifle, your good to go. Legally speaking. Which could change in the next 10 minutes.

   @ MTHead: About that 10 minute change, you weren’t kidding. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0EjkIBD3Vrs

   For scope tubes there are inexpensive Picatinny rail mounts that will fit a mini red dot
   easily as long as you buy one with the correct scope tube diameter and a compatable base. Then it’s just a matter of finding your most comfortable location for sighting through it.

   I’d run optic on top rail, then use 45 degree offset pop up buis sights….
