Behold! My Stuff.

Behold! My Stuff.

Received my 16" Virtus barrel last week and test fit it today to take some measurements for D. Wilson chopping it. I'm torn between 10.5 and 11.5. I'm leaning more toward 11.5 so I can shoot it unsuppressed, and the muzzle device is completely outside my LVAW handguard. I know the gas adjustment will be covered either way, so just looking for input. I know the manufacturer of the J. Bennet Omega Valve is in this group. I plan on getting a 5.56 MkII. Hopefully, in black, if you do that eventually.

SIG Sauer MCX/MPX

Showing my SIGs a little love today. It took years of testing different setups, optics, lights, lasers, and accessories to finally figure out what works best for me.

Top:

  • SIG Spear LT .300 BLK (6.75")
  • 10" SIG SD Handguard
  • Tion Dragoon 7.62 CQB QD w/ BPG Heat Wrap
  • EOTech EXPS2-2
  • Steiner DBAL-A3
  • SureFire M640
  • Axon Dual Pressure Switch

Bottom:

  • SIG MPX Gen 2 (8")
  • Gen 1 Handguard
  • SIG Romeo5 Gen II Elite
  • Holosun LS321R
  • SureFire M300 w/ Overbore SWVL
  • Axon Dual Pressure Switch

Both rifles are running Troy Industries flip-up sights and Delta Team Tactical FRTs with Frankenstein Armory trip bars.

They're still a work in progress, but I'm getting close to where I want them. Big shoutout to SIG Sauer, EOTech, Steiner, Holosun, SureFire, Troy Industries, Tion Suppressors, Overbore Systems, and Unity Tactical for making quality gear that works for both experienced shooters and those just getting started.

Now if I can ever get my hands on a Space Magic Industries LVAW rail, it'll be getting paired with a Tier 1 Outfitters TI-10.

Spear LT vs Virtus gas adjustment placement

Looking at picking up a Virtus barrel for my Spear LT after doing a bunch of reading and research to make sure it will fit. My question is about the placement of the gas adjustment on the barrel itself. I was reading that the placement length relative to the receiver differs between the Virtus and Spear generations. On a few other forums (posted a few years ago, at this point), Sig master dealers discussed this question and said that the adjustment "window" on the spear handguard will not line up with a Virtus adjustment. I'm wondering if anyone has a setup like this and has pictures of it, or would be willing to take a few and help me figure out the logistics of it. I am running a 300blk and want a 5.56 barrel for additional training ability.

I purchased a home a last fall and it came with a propane fireplace in the basement to heat the home. The propane tanks belonged to the local company who wanted me to take over the original contract, except I would have to pay the new propane rate. That's understandable. What wasn't was, I had to pay installation and monthly maintenance fee, minimum use fee, delivery fee, and the annual fee from previous owners since they didn't pay it. The tanks were already installed and full, so why do I need to pay for installation and propane delivery when neither of those things needed to happen for a while. Minimum use fee, which I have never heard of, consisted of if I didn't need my tanks topped off every month, they charge me a minimum use fee of 75$ for not using the propane enough. Hard pass on the whole concept. I told the company to come get their tanks off my property, I would not be signing the contract.

Fast forward to today, wife and I have had plans to install our own propane tanks that we just unhook and take to fill up when needed. I snapped pictures of the old setup, but I'm new to propane. I do not plan on installing everything myself, but the guy I talked to said I could purchase all items needed to save myself some money and as long as everything is within safety requirements he would hook it up for cost of labor. Tanks I know what I'm looking at and have calculated needed burn rate with surface area for efficiency. The regulator and how the tanks were connected is my concern. It's an old copper line coming out of the ground connected to the fireplace. Not sure if that's the best option or if an insulated rubber line would be better to replace it. What regulator setup and how to link the tanks together is another concern, as I would like to be able to unhook 1 and take it to get filled while the other is still in use. If that's possible that is, not sure if it is. Any help or parts suggestions would be appreciated. I'm in the planning stage and have just started by purchasing 2 100lb tanks from my local hardware store.

TLDR: Ditched contracted propane supplier for self reliance setup. Need help with what parts to purchase for installation.
