    the long one is a DPMS 24" fluted barrel. Its my first ar15 that I got 15+yrs ago. Its a great tack driver. Ive had it out to 600 yrds up at Hillside.
    The second one is my light weight build. Just over 4lbs. fun to shoot!

    Thank you. Very kind. I don't know why but the H&R guns make me more excitable than the Brownell's Retro line.
    Here you go picked it up today, I do like it a hair better than the Brownells one I had, this one has the 'gray' finish.

    I decided to make a somewhat unique rifle… 100% LMT except for my favorite Radian Raptor charging handle. The upper was made by LMT for the CMP (has a 18” stainless steel bull barrel) and I added an LMT carry handle to it, then paired it with the MARS-L DMR lower.

    Took it to the range and with iron sights on a black Splatterburst target indoors (not my best idea) I was still putting rounds in the same hole-ish with no support other than putting my elbows on the bench. More the rifle than me for sure!

    TY.

    If I run suppressed, it will be the SBR. Sort of wish I had went 13.5 on the handguard for the Vseven. Still may swap.
    I went with the 10.5 for my 13.9 p/w but swapped that for a smoke composite CF handguard instead.

    With those super light builds it's almost mandatory to take everything possible off the front to not feel front heavy as hell.

    First (paid) sbr finally got finished. It was a nightmare with so many parts being "in stock" then magically not after I got charged. Sent the wrong stuff at least 3 times, too. Just ridiculous.

    Kinda ass backwards putting a vltor/geissele upper on a V Seven lower but it's not staying this way, this uppers going to go on a Radian lower eventually soon and I'm likely going to do a lightweight 12.5 on this.

    Wife bought me a new light for the main rifle for my birthday. Did have a polytac mounted in a variety of mounts but it was always too bulky. Also wanted a tape switch. Can't think of the model off the top of my head but it's a streamlight.

    Might switch back to the eotech. Originally swapped it with the holosun for ease of use for my wife. She's messed with the eotech a bit on a different gun and does pretty well. I also miss the donut in the eotech.
