I have a beat up and cracked A1 butt stock that will fit right in on that!, oh wait that's on my rifle nowUGLY, but accurate...
I think the scope and trigger are worth 2X more than the rest of it combined and it's not that expensive of a scope (Leupold Mark AR). Nosler CC 77's and Benchmark powder, 100 yards off the bench. Poo-say, all the way.
Dakar, you were saying something about a AK vs. AR challenge and some dust? Bring it on! (As long as my AR is upwind of your dust.)

I'm not much on looks as,long as the rifle does well when I get my ugly ass on track.Beauty is only skin deep...
do you have a front sight already?Can anyone recommend an iron sights for a picatinny rail AR? Something that can be used for this event.
really depends you need to figure out if you want to shoot in regulation with a AR that confirms to the rules or just want to come and shoot.Great, thanks. Im missing the front one too, im guessing i want one that attaches to the barrel, and not the handguard?

Scope or optic up to 4.5x ok for CMP Modern Military class.
No one's inspecting rifles at Pembroke. If your rifle doesn't qualify you can always shoot out of class.... unless you have a muzzle brake, then leave the rifle at home and shoot a club gun
Muzzle brakes, next is the boohoo of getting hit by brass.There's a work-around if you have a muzzle brake. You will be given the position next to the wall, with DW to your immediate left or right depending upon which wall.
Muzzle brakes at a close quarters match do suck for anyone to your left or right, but if that's all you have just bring it.

for the record brakes annoy the shit out of me but I hardly notice what people are doing to the left of right of me anyway.
I had a brake on one of my ARs. It would pretty much nock my hat and glasses off. I was annoying myself.At Granby, a guy shooting 300 win mag with a big brake was blowing the corner of my shooting mat up off the ground and over my muzzle and face. Now THAT's annoying. I could have put a rock on that corner of my mat but I didn't want the win mag blowing the rock at me (LOL). The mat blowing over me is true...
welcome to the clubThat brass last time left quite the burn...
during the clean out and rehab of the basement I found my WhiteOak .072" front match sight post. It will be nice to see the front post agian! need to install it soon so i can at least get a quick 50 yard zero check.!I think I'll load up some Nosler 168 blems for M1. .308 M1 is tempting but I have enough leftover .223's so I'll just stick with the mouse fart rifle.

I don't have far to drive so I will be there rain or shine.What, you can see a .072"? Just kidding... I still have the original post on the '03 and it gets a bit fuzzy. Probably should order a Bill Bentz sight.
Year or so ago I bought a box of used White Oak upper parts including a barrel with a round count of ~600. Need to put that together and try it. Will leave it iron sights.
We missed all the rain for the last match, though I drove into some big rain on the way home. Looks like there's some in the forecast this Sunday as well. Doesn't bother me if the ugly-@ss AR or the Special get wet.

I did not think to load enough 308 for the season before I packed my reloading room wall to wall with stuff as I do the basement work.Have fun at your pussy gun match and post results; I’m over here in germany.

I can hardly get my rifles. The AR is in a different location and I have some PPU 55 grain to use. Unless I come across something when I go through the boxes I dragged out of storage yesterday.
Alas wont be able to make it, ill be there for the next, bummed i wont get to see all those M1A.
