:dunno:  got enough crap on there  :chuckle:

 :yeah:

These are supposed to be lightweight carbines, not a mounting point for everything you can imagine. What's with having two optics? It would be somewhat understandable if one was a magnified and the other not, but they both appear to be CCO optics. Use the BUIS, that's what they are for. Or, since you seem to have the rifle set up for close range work, just learn to shoot without the sights. Lasers, other than IR for designating, are worthless. Lights should be attached close to the magwell to keep the weight of the weapon as balanced as possible. Grips, if used, should be placed as far forward as possible to give the most stable firing position.

All that said, it's your rifle, do what you want with it.  :twocents:

Very nice.  :)  What kind of an upper did you put on it?  Some kind of a modified A2?  I've never seen one like that.

It is an A3 upper (flat top) with the a RRA tactical mount sight.  The plan will be to add a reflex sight one of these days with a quick detach mount so I have both iron and reflex cababilities.  For now I really like the open sights so it will be a while before I justify the expense of a reflex sight.
