Cool. I love my AI-AT in .260, I doubt yours will disappoint. I've shot .308 Hornady TAP through an AI-AW and it was gob smacking. Fantastic rifle and fantastic ammo. :good:

Iv'e had my Saiga for over a year now, so not super new but definitely the favourite in my collection. I haven't seen many for sale in 7.62x39 for a while.

So, now that I intend using the LMT in CSR practical class, it felt like the right time to chop the Bradders Arms from 15.5" to 12" for use as a dedicated short range rifle.

And the ACOG which was a little too much scope for my .22 has been given a new lease of life.

The compact dimensions will also make ideal for foxing etc.......

Question, is the moderator integral or screwed on? And does an integral one make the sound quieter?

I also got the lmt 308 now thinking about getting the lmt 223 cqb
However;
12 inch or 14 inch barrel ?
eotech or vortex 1-4 pst ?
Black or the new olive green frame ?

I going to have the forward assist milled out for a side charger

Eotech or Scope will depend on the application.

12" or 14" likewise.

Its a screwed on suppressor - Ase Utra CQB

An integral will be quieter but not by enough to justify ( yet :squirrel: ) the extra cost. Though if I ever had to replace the barrel on the Bradders Arms .22 - I would probably use a 8" barrel with permanently attached suppressor bringing it upo to the 12"

Remember that at no point in its journey to 12" suppressed can a barrel be shorter than 12". Some creative machining usually gets it done but remember that with components, once section 5 (barrel shorter than 12" for a few minutes prior to welding of suppressor) ALWAYS section 5.

Remember that a barrel blank is not a componant until chambered. Just do the suppressor before the chambering :-)
