M&P15 picture thread

Very nice! I like the looks of that new stock as well. Have you had a chance to shoot it with the Dragon on it?
 
And on the other end of that swap with Gunny and TheCatch8 is my 13" Alpha Rail addition...



Recent additions...
Troy 13" Alpha Rail and gas block.
Rail section on lower front allows quickly adding bipod or a Vertical Grip, and the IWS Micro Flush QD Sling Mount dropped right in.
Lantac Dragon Muzzle Device.
Geissele SSA Trigger
WMD Nickel Boron BCG
Larue mount for Micro T1
Laure Index Clips
Noveske QD Endplate
Changed from STR to ACL-L buttstock
Tried a few new grips, going with the MIAD, it's on the way.

And my Aimpoint 3X/Larue combo has been on backorder for 3 weeks now :(.


Aimpoint 3X arrived today, it was on backorder from Larue for almost a month :(. Seems like most go with the Tall Larue mount, but I went with the Short mount based on Larue's recommendation. Seems to line up well, and doesn't stand proud of the Micro like the Tall would. Should get out on the range Saturday :).

Killer stick staffer!!! Stop messing with perfection!!
 
had to get my T back running so I added an 8 oz. 15" MI KMR, with keymod panel and hand stop, Raptor CH, and got a killer deal on a Leupold VX-2 3-9x40 for my precision build.

LOL I think I might be at a stopping point for this one :).

Went to the range today for the first time after changing out the gas block and BCG - had to re-zero with the BCG change and also moving the T1 slightly forward to accommodate the 3x - confused the heck out of me a first...

3X is nice - helpful for my eyes as things get a bit iffy for me over 100. The Larue mount is solid, love that I can just flip the lever and flick it off without any full.

Had an issue with the rail section on the Alpha coming loose after about 60 rounds - I thought I put blue locktite on the screws, but I suppose it's possible I didn't - so will have to re-apply there. No issues with the barrel nut screws though - much liking the longer handguard and the longer sight radius for the iron sights :D
 
It's refreshing to see someone else who gives a **** about running quality optics.....

Something I forgot to mention, was a good day for optics at the range today - the guy to left of me had a Steyr with a EOTech, an the guy to the right had an AR with an ACOG - so we all check out each other's optics :). EOTech was nice but with my astigmatism it was a little blurred/smeared. the ACOG was very sweet - if I had it to do all over again I would have to think very hard about not getting an ACOG vs my T1 and 3X. :)
 
Acogs are legit for sure...but for a grand, It's a tough sell!!!

Yeah, but my T1 and 3X were basically the same price after buying both, although they are a bit more versatile I suppose. I made the mistake of fondling a few different ACOG's at my LGS today at lunch. BIG mistake lol. Now I want one, a 3.5x35, actually - TA11 I think. ...sigh :eek:

It's a tad longer than the TA31 4x that seems to be so popular, but the eye relieve is so much better.

Maybe I just need to build a new rifle to justify getting one :D
 
My mighty sport.

Only 200 rounds through her but she handles as good as any I've run in the past.
