mk12 mod 1 questions

[averageshooter]

Hey guys I am thinking of selling my M1A national match and building a mk12 mod 1 AR15. I am hoping to get some information on best parts for the build and where to get them. Yes I know parts are very scarce atm but they can be found. Also what is going to be the best barrel length/twist rate for a 600 meter gun. It looks like they use an 18" 1 in 7 twist. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Also any clue on best lower/upper to look for? I know most are made by the same company and stamped different. Maybe better question would be which components to stay away from.

Has anyone built one of these yet and how do you like it. Did it meat your expectations?

Thanks again for the help.

Matt

There's a thread on this right now, just a few posts down. Barrels are hard to find right now.

No this is not mine. It's a deployment package.

Aye .. maybe he will change his mind.

That is a pic of a MOD 0 (A far superior MK 12 then the MOD 1 IMHO)

"Mod0 is a POS compared to the Mod1"! Straight from the horses mouth!

I have them both.. Mod0 is noticeably heavier.
Don't over look the 16" REECE!

What horse?

I shot them both. They shoot the exact same, weight?. 1 lb... go to the gym.

Re: mk12 mod 1 questions

Weight combined w/ less durability doesn't add up to a winner! Anytime you'd like to meet me at a gym please let me know???

Re: mk12 mod 1 questions

lol..

How is it less durable?

Re: mk12 mod 1 questions

Evidently the PRI stuff doesn't hold up as well and is heavier! Put it this way a member on here who builds them for Uncle Sam refuses to build the Mod0. I do like the looks of the Mod0 better though!

Keep running your trap!
They are all good rifles and I'm not here to squabble over what system is the best so spare us all.
This is a good buddy of my currently in the sand box. He has shot my SPR Mod0, Mod1 and REECE. The Marines have issued him the SPR Mod1.
He had me build him a REECE for his personal collection, take that for what is worth.

The term is RECCE ( "REK ee"), from British military slang for reconnaissance.

Re: mk12 mod 1 questions

I am not familiar with the RECCE, where can I find more info on it?

And does anyone have a parts list of whats needed for the mod2?

Thanks Jack that looks like a nice place to get some info.

Re: mk12 mod 1 questions

Recce is a loose concept. The essential component is a magnified optic. Usually they have 14.5-16" match barrels and often a free floating rail system.
