    Been doing a little work to the rifle I gave my dad for fathers day. All we need now is a nice 1-4x optic.

    Nice, how effective is the ATN?

    As far as clarity goes, it is an excellent optic. Even without the IR illuminator turned on you can see almost perfectly for several hundred yards. Granted I haven't shot with it mounted yet, but so far I have zero complaints. :D

    My latest build, May group buy Spikes Zombie Lower, Kies Mk I 7.62*39 upper, Magpul stock and grip, Millet DMS on PEPR Mount, Spikes Enhanced Combat Trigger (real nice).

    Had it out this weekend and am very impressed, even with loose scope mounts, various small ammo issues (a pile of Tula with really recessed primers that caused problems) and some adjustments that need made it held 2" groups reliably on a hot barrel with surplus. With some adjustments I think it will turn into a great upper with sub 1" performance. Just need to get the gas adjust right (critical for 7.62*39) as it is still ejecting weakly and denting brass (bad mojo for my handloads), and find quality mags (going to have to scavenge around for Cproducts mags at the shows) and I should be good to go. Functions dead perfectly on the 5rd mag. Good fit to the spikes lower as well.

    I am going to use the same lower for a 300 blackout build. My next full build will be another 5.56 gun.

    That is a bungee sling looped around it to help carry it out there. It was just there as a temp for the day, worked well.

    The downfall of this rifle is its weight, great bench gun, prone or sitting, but standing sucks...
