Thanks! Doubling makes sense. I know double tap = two rapid shots, just couldn't think of another way to saying "doubling." Definitely, that's why when I was sure it wasn't just a freak event and it reoccurred I put that lower away and threw on a different one. Even shooting in a buddies back yard, not worth the risk.

The KAC 2 Stage trigger literally can be "tuned." And I'm probably not using the correct phrase to describe what was happening. I pulled the trigger once and two rounds came out...after two or three times of this occurring I swapped lowers to one with a CMMG LPK and the problem did not reappear. The two lowers had the same brand buffer, tube, and spring. Only difference was the trigger. I am going with Leupold because it's the "correct" optic for a Mk12. Basically I am building a Mk12 Mod0 clone, so trying to keep the parts as correct as I can. Personal preference, but my SHTF gun would be a close/medium range weapon (ie: AR-15). I have a tricked out M1A for distance (not a bolt gun but it's still sub MOA), the soon to be completed Mk12 for an SPR, and an M-16A4 clone for shits and giggles. I haven't heard of anyone having reliability issues with lightened BCGs. In fact, the competition (3-gun) competitions are full of them and reliability is just as important to them as to anyone else. Really, I don't think light weight AR's sacrifice any reliability compared to a full weight. Sure, if you ran over a polymer lower with a tank I am sure it would crack...but baring that unlikely scenario... What part has you worried? (And the barrel for my lightweight is a 14.5 that will have the FSC 556 pinned to bring me over 16" so it's not an SBR...damn you Illinois!)

Around 5 pounds. I am not sure if I want to spend the money for a lightweight BCG (JP, Loki, etc). But I am planning on an RMR for the optic and that's pretty dang light. My goal isn't to set any records with this build (thus the rifle length handguard instead of a carbine). I want it to be really light but still be a SHTF rifle that is practical and useful. So it will BUIS and the Magpul ASAP is already on it.

Light weight build coming along nicely. Still needs a muzzle device (FSC 556), light weight BCG, charging handle, and some little parts but overall 80% there. Really liking this carbon fiber handguard. It's stupid light and really nice quality. And ignore the rail riser, just using that to hold the handguard on until the barrel nut gets here.

Gen Keith Ware was KIA in Vietnam.

2 on Guardians of the Galaxy. I enjoyed it.

Do share!

Zero-ing the iron sights on the Mk12. Stupid sick groupings even with random 55gr run of the mill 556. I need to get off my ass and order the correct Leopold Mk4 scope (their Mil/LEO discount is insane btw) and some Mk262 77gr 556. And anyone know how to a tune a KAC 2-stage trigger? I was getting doubletaps so quickly swapped out lowers so nobody could claim I had an NFA rifle.

Weirdest C-130 landing gear I've ever seen...

Oh thank God!

Guess their border plan is an unmitigated failure then. I eagerly await them to tear down their walls, fences, and checkpoints since they are obviously not doing anything to prevent illegal immigration...oh wait...

No, because Joe and Jane Citizen have no idea this douche is a faker. Just like the recent pretend Marine who some NBA player traded seats with on an airplane and tweeted about it.

I just love how there are zero repercussions for people dressing up as mil and representing themselves as much. It's illegal to dress up as a Cop...why is it legal for impersonate mil?

ILANG is the same.

True, but it could also go bankrupt...

Does anyone have a Boarder Patrol or DHS application handy?

Not saying it was standard or common, but for those saying the WWII Army uniform was sans flag... And cue butt hurt over which direction the flag is facing. Someone better contact these guys immediately to correct them! I bet they had some shitty SNCO's back in the day if they were able to get away with such a major uniform infraction.

Park in the "Any LT" spot at your own risk.

Two things about this video: 1) That guy is a douche. 2) It demonstrates just how little fact checking the media does on witnesses and "experts."
