Early 15P Tucked Handguard Concept

We love the 15P 300BO but felt the aftermarket didn't fulfill our needs for it. So we're designing a tucked handguard that fits 30 cal cans and keeps the bottom picatiny. She'll extend 3 M-LOK slots forward and can fit cans with a inner diameter of 1.8in.

Prototype for accuracy in PETG-CF. Eventually going to do a MJF PA12 for prototype/testing. Then to 6061 Aluminium pre production testing then production.

Obviously still working on design but she's 90% there. Just have to change up internals for a better mounting method.

Also... Hate taking this damn thing apart.

17s optics

So essentially ima switch to a lpvo style optic and narrowed it to either nf atacr 1-8 or a trijicon vcog which is the prime choice and why?

Suppresor for 16 SBR

Looking for a dedicated suppressor for my 16”. It has factory 10” barrel. Currently have SFMB but will remove if need be. Would like low decibels and durability. Have KNS DiSCARder so a flow through isn’t necessarily needed.

Have been looking at SAW Tisha and Echcore Sector.

SCAR 17 GEN two conversion

I have a question for anybody that has considered doing this or has already done this.

I currently have a GEN two scar 17 in 308 but I would like to attempt a caliber conversion to take it to 223 or 556
I have a Lingle industries scar 17 caliber conversion lower that accepts AR magazines. Does anyone have an idea where I could get a full bolt carrier assembly for the GEN two scar with a bolt face for 223 I figured this would be the easiest way instead of getting an individual firing pin and a bolt but if that’s another option then so be it.

As far as a barrel will a gin one barrel work in a GEN two receiver, obviously minus the front yolk.

Anyways, has anyone tried this or accomplished this task yet?

Worth purchasing or not?

So a while back I posted about a buddy wanting to sell his RCH Belgium SCAR 17 in FDE, anyway we talked and what not and he’s asking $3200. Had less than 500 rounds, they haven’t shot it in probably 3 years. Anyway, is it worth buying for $3200 or not?

Comes with 2 mags, and that’s about it.

As much as I’d love a SCAR, i feel like the price isn’t right. I can build a bare 13.5” LMT with all the fixings for about $3500 or possibly get a HK MR762 13” for about 3500 also during a sale.

What do y’all think?

Go get em boys, I wouldn’t say it’s the best deal for one but it’s on par costs for how much one brand new is worth

Issues with running suppressed

I’ve never had issues with grouping while shooting unsuppressed. I typically get 1.5-2 MOA at 100 yards with PMC X-TAC 147 grain. I’ve gotten down to .8-1 MOA with IMI 168 grain HPBT.

Recently, I’ve decided to go suppressed. Got the KNS gas piston, swapped out the OEM MD for the KAC QDC MD, and added the KAC CRS-PRG suppressor.

When suppressed, first 1-2 shots are slightly off by .5-1” (given the expected POI shift when sighted unsuppressed); however, any more subsequent suppressed shots cause an erratic pattern without any kind of grouping. I am talking about 10+ inches drift in random directions (I.e 1-2 rounds will be high left or right followed by 1 round low left/right then almost on target and so on when aiming dead center).

The range RO guessed that I am getting baffle strikes. I looked inside the can with a bore cam and there were no signs of any contact with the baffles. I tried adjusting the gas settings to no avail. I’ve also tried allowing the rifle to completely cool before shooting again and there was a pattern forming but distinctly away from POA (center of the target) and I didn’t make any scope adjustments.

Is the barrel getting too hot even though I am using a flow through can? Is the suppressor too heavy and changing the barrel harmonics? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. I own numerous other rifles that are suppressed and never had a similar problem. I’ve also tried Googling for similar issues and haven’t found an answer. TIA.

Would a 17 (RCH) eat up a Vortex Viper PST Gen II ? Would ADM mount fix?

I’d like to reach out a bit further than the ATACR allows. I have Vortex Viper PST Gen II I’d like to throw on/try. Will the 17 eat it up? Would an ADM mount help? Other mount brands?

Thanks for all the help!

Just wanted to say thank you for all the advice and info provided through this group. Finally got my 15p put together. Still need to install my geissele trigger and mototech gas regulator but she's running. Flash hider wasn't too difficult to remove and ended up going with a recessed comstock muzzle brake so no timing needed. Runs pretty smooth with the Tisha and an enhanced buffer spring. Keep Kicking Ass!

GEN II SCAR 17, SBR?

Has anyone seen or put together a 13” Gen II SCAR 17 yet? I tried google searches and searching on Reddit but have only seen Gen I versions. I’ve current own a 16” 17 gen I and a 13” Sig Spear but want input on a 13” Gen II 17. Any range reports would be helpful any accuracy at 100 yards.
