So after a frustratingly abortive shot at doing the ACOGs and not liking the outcome, I switched to something on the list that was more achievable- Insight VLI-002 (Or 001, Insight didn't make clear the distinction). The VLI was the first WML in the SOPMOD package, and a failure

aaand with the Wilcox mount that makes both of the formally adopted Aimpoint mounts in Block 1 SOPMOD - the M68 CCO with the Aimpoint QRP, and the ECOS-N with the Wilcox CompM mount.

Not in any way complete, but here's the first of the CompM2 mounts, the Aimpoint QRP (and lower-third cowitness spacer, which is a separate piece because the maximalist in me once again strikes).

The first M68 CCO - the CompM2 Aimpoint. 3rd of 5 for the Milspec ARs, first of Phase 3. To do: lens caps, mounts(several), the weird rubber sling that went over the adjustment dials, probably a rubber band

Okay, mad season over, and we're back. In a Patreon post I made yesterday getting everything up to speed, I mentioned not having done the Sawback charging handle latch for the Diemaco rifles - I have now corrected that.

Right, with the ambi mag release and the butt pad, we're only short the razor saw bolt latch for a complete C8A2, and if you can imagine the full A2 front for the moment - the C7A2.

Finally, we're getting close to looking like what people think of as the C7 and C8 (the A1 and 2). Diemaco BUIS to go with the Diemaco rifles. Gotta do the rubber butt pad next.

There's a few details to go (mostly the knob shrouds, lens protectors and their retainers and plugs, and pic mount)

One of the things about the KAC Vertical Grip is that it's phenomenally hard to screw up- both IRL and to render in 3D. Today I needed an easy win, so that's what I'm doing. Almost done.

That's the SOPMOD done. OTOH I still have to do the M203 Butt-pad because the CAF used them on the C7A2 and C8A1/2 onwards. Time to start working on more accessories

Obviously not done, but the SOPMOD stock is being worked on and it's well over the hump now.
