    Check out their company Slate Black Industries. They are based out of Houston, so their Texans, or at least go here as quick as they could!

    Centurion only has the Recce barrels in midlength gas systems, so you'd have to go elsewhere for a barrel if you want to go shorter than 14.5".

    An AEM-5 will fit an 11.5" barrel using a low-pro gas block (12.5" needed for a FSB, or you can use an AEM-4 on an 11.5" FSB). ADCO is familiar and can do the work....Ron Allen will also make a custom collar for your barrel if it's not cut to the SPR or M4 spec (the two standard collars he makes).

    Centurion now has an option for a CM4 upper and has options for shorter barrels.

    Yeah but you said you wanted a mini-Mk12.

    Those are just regular Gov't profile CMV barrels. Not heavier SS match barrels.

    Doesn’t necessarily have to be heavy SS. 12.5 Criterion CORE profile recent build for me by Citizen Arms. Barrels even chrome lined. Going to play with a 3x magnifier first then try LVPO.

    Alright, I guess "Mini Mk12" means something different to me, given the characteristics/purpose and goals of a Mk12. What you guys are talking about is just a random garden-variety frankenstein SBR/pistol AR. I would never look at that gun and think, "Oh cool, that's like a mini Mk12".

    And holy fucking length of pull, batman.

    That is a sweet upper. If I ever was going to have a custom built, it would be CA.

    Yep, 6’4” with long arms and don’t do the nose to CH thing.

    I have a second lower that is in the process of getting SBR’d. Upper will mostly live on that lower with a real stock. Pistol lower/folder is really for hurricanes evacuation, don’t want to deal with NFA across state lines, throw in a nondescript backpack option.

    I have a second upper being built with a pinned 13.9 barrel, otherwise same setup. Will get my Razor 1-6 for now. Have ordered a Vortex 1-10 but they are back ordered probably through the end of the year. When here, 1-10 goes on 13.9 upper and 1-6 onto 12.5. If 1-10 lives up to the hype, 12.5 will eventually get a 1-10. At that point should be able to pull off SBR or mini Mk12.
