What mount?Mine is parted out. I built mine in 2007 when there wasn't really PRI uppers available. White Oak barrel, everything else is SWAN/PRI to spec, with RRA upper and lower.
I have a NXS 2.5-10 ordered for mine. For the fact that the Leupolds aren't around and haven't heard the best things about them.That's a S&B PMII 5-25 on a Spuhr 1.5" 0MOA mount. No it's not clone correct and no I don't care lol. After talking to a guy in my match this weekend who used the MK12 and a Holland in the marine corps, he said when the MK4 scopes mounted on them came in, they were taped because the elevation wouldn't track properly. So they'd zero them, tape them back up, and use holds for everything. If that's a lie, its the most well orchestrated wives tail I've ever seen. The NF NX scopes were far better in that aspect but still SFP from what I've been researching.

All sexy looking rifles. Can't wait to get mine. All of these pictured, are the fully PRI or mix and match lower/uppers?
Yeah that's too much. Considering how old they are and how much better optically newer scopes are. I was debating between a new mk5hd 3.6-18 and the NXS 2.5-10. Went with the NF route. Just sucks its on a 38-40 week lead time.there was one Leupold on ebay for $2000.

Direct through NF. Idk which you're looking for, you mentioned NF 2.5-10x24, I'm getting the 2.5-10x42. Not sure if it was a typo on your part or not. The x24 looks more like an LPVO. EO has the x42 in stock as well. The correct Leupold Mk4 is a 3.5-10x40.

I haven't seen anywhere listed as a x24 being correct. The leupold mk4 is a x40. Not sure where you're looking in the vast sea of information out here on the internet. From Wikipedia, so take it as you wish:Ok. It wasn't a typo on my end. but you did not specify the objective diameter in your post, only "2.5-10" and when we are talking about "correct" optics in a Mk12 thread, i just assumed the "2.5-10" was for the correct scope for the clone Mk12 which is the 2.5-10x24.
The 2.5-10x24 was correct for the mod1 (they have supposedly also received the 2.5-10x32 but not sure if they were issued from Crane or incorporated at the end user level).I haven't seen anywhere listed as a x24 being correct. The leupold mk4 is a x40. Not sure where you're looking in the vast sea of information out here on the internet.

"Due to the relative modularity of the system, optics (as well as almost everything else) can be mounted according to the operator's wishes. However, SPRs are most often seen with a 3.5–10×40 mm Leupold LR M3 (SPR/A), a 2.5–8×36 mm TS-30 (SPR/B), or a 3–9×36 mm TS-30 A2 (Mk 12 MOD 0/1) Mid Range/Tactical Illuminated Reticle Dayscope. Night vision devices can also be attached. These scopes usually come with flip open dust covers and a honeycomb anti-glare anti-reflection device. Given Nightforce Optics' NAVSPECWAR contract, it is believed that many NAVSPECWAR issued SPRs will use the Nightforce 2.5-10x42 NXS scope.[11]"
i was incorrect in that the x24 was on the mod1.
i have never heard of the x42 being used on the SPR guns, as I HAVE seen some 2.5-10-x24 scopes marked "NAVSPEC" but not the x42.
Heavily considered it but those prices lol. Read on here that the 3-20US is superior to the 5-20. Having never looked through them, I can't say.Either way all shit scopes.... 520 us or gtfo
Id definitely invest in a better optic if you plan on frequently shooting at night w/a I2 clip on. In broad daylight those optics are usable (NF NXS moreso than the MRT leupolds).Heavily considered it but those prices lol. Read on here that the 3-20US is superior to the 5-20.

I know that feeling. Almost time to retire.You guys make the 30-something GWOT NCO in me grin.
That’s less than ideal. Wonder why lead times are so crazy right now.Looks good. I have abandoned my build. I order a complete rifle through PRI but at the same time I was slowly buying pieces for a mod 1. I have everything but handguards and barrel which are both on order right now. Had to settle for Larue handguards since the KACs aren't being produced/sent to dealers right now.
For what? Larue stuff is always almost made to order so its always a 2-6 months or so. And KAC had to stop late last year or so to focus on rifle and upper backorders for gov and commercial customers. Once they get through that, they'll start pushing new stuff out to dealers.That’s less than ideal. Wonder why lead times are so crazy right now.
True. I have the clone correct ones for Mk12. We'll see what I do with them once I get the ZCO 420 on top, not clone correct obviously.Depends on how clone correct you want to be. Total waste of money IMO, but what isn't right? They were one of the last things I put on mine. You can always sell them for what you got them for. They are always in demand and will always sell since it's a clone part.... assuming you got the correct BUIS. Personally would get some since you never know when Knights is going to stop making them or selling to the public.
Ouch $1500 for an AEm5This build added up quick lol. Minus the zco 420 and aem5, with those its at 79xx.

Really? What have you heard bad about the Mark 4? Not to be too nosey, but where did you order an NXS 2.5-10, or are you getting the longer 44mm version?I have a NXS 2.5-10 ordered for mine. For the fact that the Leupolds aren't around and haven't heard the best things about them.
It was the 44mm one but I went with a zco420 instead. Nothing terrible about the mark 4, just that they’re a 20+ year old scope and optical technology has far surpassed what those are packing.Really? What have you heard bad about the Mark 4? Not to be too nosey, but where did you order an NXS 2.5-10, or are you getting the longer 44mm version?
Any questions about Mk12 Mod 0 or Mod 1, happy to help. For those interested, we have a complete offering of rifles and deployment kits and optics and suppressors, but happy to be a resource for questions. One of my favorite rifles.
