    Nice!
    Can we get a range report? :)

    Yes sir! So Rugged radiant on a 10.5 barreled upper from PSA but tweaked at SOTAR. SLR adjustable gas block. Ran three different types of 55 grain 5.56 ammo (Wolf steel case, PMC, and some other I forget). Ran perfectly. I did not have to make any adjustments. Brass electing 3 to 5 o'clock. Significant noise reduction. Also gets very hot very fast; even a slow fired 5 round group and it's too hot to remove with some kind of mitt. The only minor complaint; the Rugged tapper mount is somewhat difficult to unlock. The locking collar is a little tough to get a hold of and turn without turning the entire can. The flip side is that it really snugs down in place. I am extremely happy and the noise reduction made shooting the rifle a pleasure. The balance on a 10.5" rifle is fantastic.

    Been working on a Blood Diamond clone build. Got my stamp back on a real steel XM177 moderator, just needs to be painted.

    This is awesome. Reminds me of Black Hawk Down. Now I need to watch Blood Diamond. Never seen that one!

    Put my BRN-180 upper on a registered SBR receiver. It's pre-13. Ordered a side folding stock from Lage that should be in this week.

    Man that is a real beauty.

    You workbench looks like mine.... I spend an hour just cleaning and organizing it before starting something new, then it remains in a perpetual state of disarray until the next project starts.

    Has to be ATF approved pre Oct 13. If you submit one to ATF now you're building a new SBR and that falls under the new rules. Only thing AR you can do <29" is rimfire SBRs AFAIK.
