Derek, have you had any experience with the M8 Industries mounts that replace the rear sight assembly? What are your honest thoughts on those?

Two great shorties. SP5K-PDW and the beginnings of an NSW MK18 Mod1/CQBR Block II.

Took my SP5K-PDW to Brad for SBR engraving. It was over and done in about five minutes. "Well, it's Friday... not really busy.... want to go shoot some machine guns?" We stuck a 4-pos pack and F/A carrier in my SP5K-PDW, and also bagged up a Heat 733 clone (F/A Bushmaster lower) and a gorgeous...
