I think he's been slacking and didn't even get that Vortex PST Viper 1-4x24 yet for his wife.... I predict the SRS will be the last purchase!

Comp,
Do you know what color work you're going to have done?
I'm trying to get my light weight "voodoo" project lined up for Cerakote spray and Camo dipping. I'm going with foliage green (of similar), and then going to have it hydro dipped in ATAC's foliage. That color group would do well here in KY, for most, if not all of the year.
Just curious,

Comp,
Just a quick question... why a 13.7 ?

FT this is going to be my rifle I use to go local 2-Gun shoots with. So thinking maybe having the rail, stock, and receiver set done in blue titanium. The barrel, buffer tube, xmr, ebs, and naroh keymod pieces done in red.
Because with the KX3 pinned it will bring the barrel to a little over 16" and with the 15.5" Odin Works rail it look niceLast edited by Computalotapus; 10 May 2014 at 14:52.

Yeah I understand the KX3 part, for the 13.7, but it's just not a good combination for actual shooting. I had a couple of 13.7's and it was just not practical. Very front heavy for no gain.
I'd just go with the 14.5 or 16" NTD Barrel for your "NTD" build

Any longer of a barrel and the KX3 doesn't tuck under the rail it just sticks out in front of it. Not the look I am going for. I could change the stock to like a UBR to add some weight to the back of it. If I change the barrel then the muzzle device and rail will have to change as well.

So it's all about form, no function... not your style... but I'll still look at this thread everytime you update it.

Well since you put it that way..... I guess I gotta go back to the drawing board. I just don't want to do an SBR to go to the shorter barrel to free up the weight. If I change the barrel going to go with a PWS FSC series muzzle device. ( GEMTECH ready yay )
Maybe I could go to the 14.5" barrel and just suck it up that another 1" of the KX3 will stick out. Maybe I just need to suck it up and do the right thing.Just a regular guy.

Don't listen to me.... afterall, it's your build/money! If this is something you want, go for it. Sometimes you have to scratch that itch.
Besides, I doubt this will be your "last build" like you know, some guy named Fort Tom.
