    I’m old school. Long story short, Sold my M4 quad R2, had to make ends meet. Then bought another R2 M4, the new one was out but I love that quad look.

    New version also comes with a mid length gas system versus the carbine length in the original

    Bought mine 10 yrs ago and couldn't decide between this and thre BCM.... but really wanted the ris ll rail. Maybe the BCM would have been a better choice, but that ris ll fde with matching furniture is awesome!

    I just got mine and it was confusing me because i have the m4a1 with the Ris 3 but its not ambidextrous. It also has the mid length gas. Its all FDE with just M4A1 lasered on.

    The RIS 3 is a very, very nice and sturdy mlok rail. But the RIS 2 is a timeless classic that has been tested in combat time and time again. I personally love my RIS 2 and plan to build a MK18 clone whenever I get around to getting an RC2.

      There's only ~1oz difference between a 9.5 RIII to 9.5 RIS II. Weight is prob not gonna matter in this case.

  • @7mmalltheway
    @7mmalltheway Рік тому +1

    I have even an older version than that RIS 2, which was an extremely rare upper back then ( finish quality is also not as great) and it made me either look stupid (too thick and heavy/ clone correct mall ninja) or feel proud of the accuracy. 14 years of ownership so far, no malfunction and still holding 1moa accuracy after 10k rounds.

    Guns definetly get alot heavier once you add a light, sling, optics, etc my mk18 feels heavy for how small it is i have a 14.5 that feels about the same weight with less stuff on the 14.5 just a red dot and buis and a sling kept it simple as possible has a hand stop also.

    • @craven1927
      @craven1927 Рік тому +10

      For a rifle to be considered short barreled it will have a barrel length of less than 16 inches, which requires a tax stamp and extra paperwork to register with the ATF. In order to avoid this, you can have a 14.5 inch barrel with a 1.5 inch muzzle break permanently welded/pinned to the end of the barrel to meet the 16 inch requirement. This saves you an inch and a half in total length vs a normal 16 inch barrel with a removable muzzle break, however you're stuck with what you've got so you can't change it out later if you would want to.

They will have to pin and weld the new one unless you live in a free state and pay the tax stamp to make it an SBR. Us in Commiefornia don't even get that option.

I've been able to work on about any gun there is basically for 25 years and I've been shooting long range for over 30 years plus shooting tournaments for 3 years. I'm not cocky at all, I made a comment and you chimed in, stirring shıt up. So I told you the basis of my opinion. Yeah 12 years is a lot when I've literally worked on thousands of guns/triggers and custom made my own 2 stage triggers. You acted like I didn't know shit so I was letting you know, that in fact you're the one that probably doesn't know as much as you think.
