Noveske LO-PRO & AXTS Weapons AX556

- Noveske Mid-Length 14.5" Light LO-PRO
- AXTS Weapons AX556
- Battle Arms CASS-3P, SA 45' Ambi Safety Selector
- Vltor MUR
- Vltor A5 Extension & Buffer
- Magpul STR / Magpul MIAD / Magpul ASAP
- Geissele Super Dynamic Combat (SD-C)
- AAC Blackout 51T

- LaRue Covert Rifle Case, MkII

Just received LaRue's new Covert MkII case in the mail today and thought I'd put some pictures up of the AXTS build. Only a couple hundred rounds through it so far, but it shoots really smooth. Running the standard A5 5.3oz buffer without any problems. Still trying to decide on an optic.

Nice setup, the Tactical Tailor cases are all very nice. I've killed a lot of zippers on a lot of bags, but never one from TT.

Nice set up Skylined! Like the LaRue's new Covert MkII case too. How much did it cost you for the whole set up if I may ask?

Does that 14.5 middy like the A5 buffer system? My BCM 14.5 middy cyclic rate is super slow with the A5 or a Rifle buffer. It runs... but just on the edge.

Nice rifle. I'm familar with the upper....not so much with the AXTS lower. How do you like it?

Wasn't aware that TT was making the Larue cases. It is well made and I like mine.

From what I understand, the MkII cases are made by another quality Texas manufacturer rather than Tactical Tailor, but seems to be just as sturdy as the Tactical Tailor MkI cases

About the same price as a LaRue OBR 7.62


Does that 14.5 middy like the A5 buffer system? My BCM 14.5 middy cyclic rate is super slow with the A5 or a Rifle buffer. It runs... but just on the edge.

I've got about 400 rounds through it so far and haven't had any problems with the standard A5 5.3oz buffer

AXTS AX556 lower has great fit and finish, definitely feels like a quality piece of aluminum. As a left handed shooter, it has all of the ambidextrous controls I was wanting.
