Let's see that shooter

The red thing under the hand guard, is that a heat sink? How does it attach to the barrel?
I am not sure how they attached it to the barrel other than the 6 nuts I can see. I think they may have used some sort of epoxy as well.
 
Its an open pipe clamped with screws, you tighten the screws the pipe closes and fights on the barrel.
Ive seen it only one times, hard to get here in germany.
 
I rebuilt a Stag I had in the closet with an eye towards light weight and not spending an arm and a leg. That worked right up until I realized it's an AR and I'm an idiot. But it has a blemished carbon float tube, so yeah super cheap.

7.3 pounds including the scope. Fortunately, I didn't get the rings tightened correctly and the scope slide around under recoil so now that it's all scratched up I can get on with not giving a fuck about it being pretty.

The back blast from the muzzle brake is impressive, shoots super flat though.

Very nice. How do you like the scope?
 
I dig it so far. I initially hadn't gotten it focused correctly so the image was a different size between eyes at 1x. Which was odd to say the least. That taken care of it's really nice for what it is, though it is a bit heavy (18oz I think). 6x range of magnification is asking a lot, considering that and the price I think it's a solid scope. I have no doubt the Leupold version of the same is better, but it's also $1500.

Hopefully I can get to an outdoor range sometime soon and shoot something besides crap frangible at 25 yards to see what I've got.
 
It's a Precision Armament M4-72 "Severe Duty" brake. Which is funny, since I wouldn't want it anywhere near me if there was a chance of shooting without hearing protection, like duty stuff. It's very loud, and blows lots of gas/concussion back towards the shooter. I double up normally and I'm used to the concussion(open guns are stupid loud), but I wouldn't want to shoot it in a non-range/competition situation.
 
Picked up a RI2087-N "Yugo" N-PAP last week. I was kind of wary of buying something imported by Century Arms given their poor rep. on other forums, but I'm actually really impressed with the quality of the rifle. The pic doesn't do justice to how nice the wood furniture is. Only dig I have is that the comb of the stock creates way too high of a cheek-weld (for me) and will probably get replaced with something more tacti-cool.

I've been looking at them for a new house gun.
I love this thing - reviewers have a love/hate with it. But for my purpose I am very pleased. My one piece of advice, afix the triangled hand grip that you see in my pic vs. a regular AR type hand grip. These Keltecs cannot be charged lightly, and there have been cases where the traditional front grip breaks and the shooter's hand ended up in front of the barrel as it went "boom". No good.
