nice build,the only thing that throws it off is the bronze colored acog on top.did you paint it that color?

[CSACANNONEER]

Ammo?

[BoltActionBob]

green + tan + black + bronze?
CAR stock on with a varmint upper?

ehhh....

well, to each his own

[jerryballs]

the acog is the new military dark earth color..'

the tango down and stock are the same color, but don't look it in that light...They are both tan

[Vonshliken12]

Looks good man. Wish I had the funds to throw an acog on my OLL. All it needs is a forward pistol grip.

Not all ACOGs are that expensive. His is like $1600 with the Dr.Optic on there, but you can get a 3x compact ACOG for like $900.

Interestingly enough, thats about the same price you'll pay for a Aimpoint M4, 3x magnifier and mounts (since Aimpoint doesn't include mounts).

[Vonshliken12]

Are u serious u think 900 dollars isn't alot of money. Thats way over my budget.

It's all relative. When the rifle costs $2,000+, spending $900 on a top-shelf optic that will let you take the most advantage of your weapon, it's not a lot.

Buying quality the first time around is going to be cheaper in the long run.

[Teletiger7]

I think you picked quality parts. But like everyone else said, it'll take awhile for the Bronze/Gold color to grow on me. Trijicon is getting funky with it's colors:p

i know...its not that cool, I am thinking of getting it painted if thats safe to do so...

[drawn]

Yes it is safe to do, email me at drew@armoryairbush.com and we'll put the FINISHING touches on that otherwise wonderful build.

[RobG]

Nice job, especially for your first one.

[cobra198]

Nice first build! I like it.

[aplinker]

Nice build and nice choices...

I would suggest painting the rifle before the optic. I've seen those in person and it doesn't look anywhere near as ugly as that. That's a photographic artifact that it looks bright bronze. Tan is a VERY hard color to anodize with.

Not all ACOGs are that expensive. His is like $1600 with the Dr.Optic on there, but you can get a 3x compact ACOG for like $900.

Interestingly enough, thats about the same price you'll pay for a Aimpoint M4, 3x magnifier and mounts (since Aimpoint doesn't include mounts).

I would like to know where and how you can put together this Aimpoint M4 with mounts and magnifier for $900... Add about $200 and you're closer to reality.

BUIS.

[huck]

It pays to know people dude. :)

I have a buddy who's on Aimpoint's evaluation list. They send him stuff for free. He uses it for a few weeks and writes back to Aimpoint about what he does and does not like. After the trial period, he has an option to buy it for 40% off MSRP.

[jerryballs]

for all of those who are "jealous" (kidding of course) of my dark earth acog ;) here is a pic with out the acog

[SuperSet]

Very nice build, bud! You can't go wrong with MagPul and Trijicon as part of your build list.
