It's refreshing to see how smooth this project appears to be going, at least what is public facing. I look forward to getting my hands on one, hoping soon.

For the Love of God please kill the 12 O'clock MRDS mounting -
use a 28-45degree offset

12 O'clock is unnatural as fuck and counter intuitive when under stress (no one stick their neck out further while getting shot).

I've had one of them with five rounds for 60 years. Never fired it.

I dislike seeing soldiers having installed modern 2 point adjustable slings on their rifles, only to then not wear them properly and have them swing around like a pendulum below the gun. Especially annoying when they are specifically shooting at CQB distances.

On the optics I posted this quite a while back. It’s the Burris with a FastFire at the 12 O’clock I believe.

Interestingly like @KevinB noted in the 3 RCR trial pictures posted, almost no one seems to be locking the CTR stocks. I bet it’s not in the program of instruction for this rifle trial.

Managed to confirm the Optics being trialed. Interestingly the Optics being trialed are NOT the Optic of the actual Optic that will be selected. The optics are merely to expose the trial participants to fixed vs variable optics. Interestingly as well the CAF is developing its own proprietary reticle that will be part of a separate trial. That reticle is currently in testing/development with an Industry OEM.
Burris RT-6 1-6x24
Primary Arms SLx6 1-6x24
Steiner T536 5x36
Sig Sauer Bravo 5 x32

If you ever want to rehome it, let me know!

I'll keep that in mind.

I hate to say it but it, and my K98, were both wrapped up for storage when I left Shilo in 2006 and I haven't looked at them since.

I'll have to give them a look over one of these days.

I feel you. I have a few safe queens that's are just keep sakes.
