I was about to say they've changed their exhaust line-up since my presilencer didn't look like any of those from the "complete systems". My presilencer looks like this:


But after searching a little more I remember now. . . I was a poor Advance Auto part-time employee and couldn't afford the full kit so I purchased parts individually (cat-back and presilencer), the header believe it or not was a gift from a group of friends that all pitched in and surprised me for my birthday (will never forget that, was one of my favorite gifts ever!). The complete system is a way better design, I'd go that route. .

In other news, I'm almost finished with my precision AR project, only took me six years but it's almost there

A couple small things and a quality scope and I'll be done with it. Quality scopes aren't cheap though. .

You are correct, some of those cost more than the camera!

Not sure what type of optic you are looking for but if cheap is your game and you like red dots, I have a Primary Arms Micro Dot on a UTG brand QD riser that I love so far. The dot is 2 MOA and seems a little big at longer range but I have no trouble drilling a 5in x 5in target at 100yards and acquisition is PDQ.

Excuse all the acronymns!

I don't mind spending money on a quality scope (that fits my needs) especially since I've put this much time in the rifle so far, I suppose I can save for the one I want. Never been a big fan of red dots, just not my preference. I have GG&G back-up irons I'll use till I can afford a scope. I must say I'm very proud of these irons. . . I've hit consistent 300yrd shots consecutively on a foot wide target . I've been window shopping a lot lately for the right scope but there are so many options.

Any certain one you're looking for? I may have one from Robert, I'll look next time I'm under the house.

It's no big deal. They are so cheap I can just order them. I don't want it to be a hassle. s5 apparently only uses 2 anyway.

We should all go in together and buy 240B. That would be. Good ole time.
