Nice build. What barrel length are you thinking? My M5 SBR has a 12.5'" and SD3G trigger. It's a very good setup for CQB and up to 300yds (only taken it out this far) but it should be able to do 500yds.

getting a 12.5. I hope the handguard is a true 12 like aero says or ill be pissed.
10.5's are good out to 900 so maybe 1000 with good optics _________________ Yaki's - last journey Promote a Growth Mindset. Don't let a fixed mindset not allow change for the better. pow·er trip - noun - a self-aggrandizing quest for ever-increasing control over others. |

My handguard is 11.25". Gives me an extra 1/2" before the thread shoulder for the Trifecta QD flashhider and Saker 7.62

If that tube is longer than normal, I'll buy it from you when you change it.

It looks like there is a spacer/extender on that tube. Pull the Shockwave and ditch the spacer.
