Re: SPR MK12 MOD0

Looks like a Sierra Precision Grip, not a MIAD.

Pretty cool. Any plans for the correct front sight and Ops Inc Brake?

Re: SPR MK12 MOD0

Nice rifle. I like the feel (and look) of the MOD 0 over MOD 1, but MOD 0's about 1 lb heavier though when built to mil-spec. Anybody who's had to carry gear knows how much a difference a pound can make, LOL... Anyway post some targets when you get a chance and let us know how it shoots.

Re: SPR MK12 MOD0

You mean the Mod0 is heavier.
I'd love to have that grip, but I'm a lefty.
My Krieger barreled Mod0 is the most accurate semi auto I have ever had.

Re: SPR MK12 MOD0

What's up with the angular position of the scopes illumination rheostat?
It doesn't look like any Leupold I've ever seen.

How has it shot so far?
(Looks great)

It's the earlier version before they canted it at a 45 degree angle.

You are right. Changed it. I copied and pasted from an earlier list before I changed the grip. Good eye

Re: SPR MK12 MOD0

Despite the ARMS Sleeve, the fricken PRI tubes would not stay tight unless you locktited them on.

Admittedly in 5.56mm I prefer Recce Rifles

Re: SPR MK12 MOD0

I beat the dog shit out of a PRI GEN3 with recce rail for 6000 rounds easy,Never had an issue with it and no loktite.

Was you problem on one weapon or multiple weapons?

Re: SPR MK12 MOD0

This is mine SPR MK12 mod0, it was hard to get all the parts needed in Norway. right now i would like to have a M2 ore M3 turrets on my scope. But she shoots beautyfullyyyy

Re: SPR MK12 MOD0

SKH - that is the second of your rifles that I've seen that make me very envious - your M40A1 is the other.

Seems to shoot every bit as good as it looks.

Got me thinking about another build now.....

Heck of a nice first post! Is that the shorter collar from ADCO? Doesn't look like it's riding up against the PRI front sight. Have one on the way for mine.

OP: beautiful rifle. Sorry that you are a subject of the PRK. Unfortunately they don't allow threaded barrels in your part of the not-so-free world so the Ops Inc brake would be out. Still, congrats for a great job. Looking forward to when mine is done.

Multiple weapons, and fleetwide, as Crane culled the Mod 0's...

I did my own build,maybe that's why I have no problems ,to bad a tube of loktight got in the way of a killer weapons plateform.

All you guys scrapin these mod12 lmk I could use another tube and rail!

BTW
Nice build to the original thread starter !

I've had almost all of my Ops collars machined (trimmed down in the rear) so my 12th MBS indexed correctly. Ron Allen is a great dude, but I don't know why on earth that issue hasn't been addressed from day 1 by him.

It's the PRI front sight, it's one of the shorter earlier ones that works properly with the standard OPS 12th collar.
I do know about shortening the collar for newer builds, I had to do just that to the LaRue Tactical low profile gas block on my 18" Douglas SPR barrelled Mod "1-ish" upper so the collar would ride on the step in the barrel.
