VLTOR CAS-V Info
CASV
Installation looks like a cinch
Pics worth a thousand!

LaRue Rails & Other Goodies - Wes @ MSTN does a lot of business with LaRue, stands behind their products and his assembly. Believe he posts here too, good guy.

Daniel Defense
Rails here, good kit but their 9/3 side rails are not 1913 spec
SMG Lee's SHOT 2006 Review, page 5/9 on ARFcom has pictures of the new DD system entered into the SOCOM Block 2 RAS competition.

ARFcom has its share of idiots and half wits, but in the upper/lower section there are several stickies about stocks/rails you should check out for a wider variety of information that I can provide you with at this time. If you wanted something available NOW: LaRue is the heat, good prices too. The CASV is free float and its minimal installation, whereas LaRue requires a bit of work. I like to clean my weapons thoroughly, so easy removal of the CASV facilitates this need and many more. Removes the EOTech from iron sights view if you're going that way. (I am, cowitnessing is not a need for my present use of my carbine).

The M73 is a great mounting solution, and relatively inexpensive as well. The point about the lack of need for a free-floated rail system for a carbine is well-taken. I am not a fan of the RIS or RAS.

The SIR is okay, but a bit clunky. I like the LaRue freefloat best, hear good things about the Daniel Defense tube, the PRI has its fans, and the Knight's free-floated RAS is somewhere down the line.

Good choices, especially the back two rows.

the Vltor VIS is going to give the LMT MRP a run for the money as a monolithic upper alternative, if a free float one-piece upper floats your boat. uninterrupted top rail, in carbine, mid-length and rifle lengths. takes standard M4/16 type barrels. the bottom rail is removable, unlike the MRP. it's nice - eric at Vltor's a good designer.

If I've read right, looks like its half the price of the MRP too.

My H&K P7M8 and Utilihak with a group I shot rapid fire from 25 feet as fast as I could go. Three mags and one in the pipe a mag at a time. I'll even admit I dropped one in the chest.

The second picture is me at the range with a friend earlier this year. We were shooting his new Barrett 82 A1.

M82, very nice. No semi .50's in Canada, they're too dangerous for civilians to handle. Plenty of bolt action .50's though, they're far less dangerous.

Nice bench pad for the bipod.

Don't think it is rated for that round though.

We were using an old vest as a pad to help the rifle stop slipping. The m107 is almost identical to that rifle and has spiked feet which can be bought after market.

During the excitement and fun of throwing round down range we forgot to shoot the old vest with the Barrett.


And correct me if I am wrong but all .50bmg rifles are now banned from sale or transfer in the state of Kalifornistan?

Yup.

You have not seen Barretts add in the "American Rifleman"?

Shows the Model 99 .416 rifle and states "legal even in Calif".

I thought that you were in Georgia?

Where are you headed with this line of questioning?
