ATRS Modern Sporter Mk12 Mod 0 UPDATE: Range Report

That's what I thought when I read the post. "This guy is just a hater".
This gun was built by ATRS. Originally I bought the MS receiver. Then I started to order all my parts through ATRS and set F it, and had them put it all together. The barrel was custom machined by them from a Lilja blank. At the time they had an page saying that they will machine any barrel profile from a lilja blank for $750. I considered other options, but went went this route. It's a 1:8 .223 Wyld.

I like the A2 stock, don`t see them much anymore. Have one sitting in my shop waiting to be put back into service.
I don't think he meant it like you imply, I think he was only poking fun... While it's a nice rifle, it is neither a MK12 nor anything special.
Ya see - after so many years of watching guys take a receiver set and throw some parts on it, then show the world their "C7 clone" or "MK12 clone", it gets kinda old.
That's the reality, and you may not like it but it's the truth.
Congrats on your new rifle, BTW. Not how I would've built it, but you paid for it not me !

Yeah, I'm pretty sure TVPP is the opposite of hater.
I like the Mk12 builds myself, I've absolutely been one of those guys who slaps some parts on a Modern Varmint and calls it a Mk12-ish gun, ha. I also have a Modern Sporter C7 "clone". Or rather SA20.
It doesn't make the gun special, but TV is right, it sure as heck makes it 2005 cool. And being a grad of 2006, if it is high school era cool, it is really, really cool.
Some people really get bent out of shape about the “clone” term. To some it can mean the rifle was inspired by a mk12 to others nothing but a exact replica will do. Either is fine in my books.
