Is the scope mount Aero precision SPR on your buddy Mikes MS?

I beleive lt is an adm recon.

Very nice mount, if you have use for qd mounts and don't mind the extra weight! I know my friend Eric prefers the Aero precision as he did not use the qd leaver on his previous scope mounts(burris pepr and adm reccon) and the Aero is 3.2 oz vs the adm 8.4oz.

Oh and Eric just told me that the adm is a very nice mount and probably a bit sturdier then the aero but since he dont drop his rifle of Humvees and bang the scope in apc's his aero is perfect. Only little thing is it is tricky to tighten the scope due to the torking motion of the mount
 
Yeah went from a 1-4x Trijicon accupoint and an aero mount to a PST 1-6x with the ADM. You definitely notice the weight up top, worth it though for the toughness

Have you had an instance where the accupoint and the aero mount didn't hold up to the abuse you were giving it? Just curious what level of 'toughness' is needed.

No nothing wrong with it, just wanted something more beefy for the vortex pst. The only thing I don’t like on the aero mount is how it hinges at the top, somewhat of a weak point I think and it’s a bit trickier to get the scope level.

Yes I also believe it is a weak point, I saw one failed first hand just by installing and torking in a scope. The defective ring was promptly replace by aero via the Canadian distributor! But it only happened once out of 4 or 5 mounts I dealt with.
 
Ordered my receiver set, this is my first build ever. Starting to look at other parts and trying to figure out what will actually fit for triggers, hand guards etc. Looking at barrels I am debating between these in .223 wylde, thoughts?

1. IBI 20" H/Bar Profile
2. IBI 19" Myers/Steacy Profile
3. Faxon Match Series- 20" Flame Fluted, .223 Wylde, Rifle-Length, 416R, Nitride, 5R, Nickel Teflon Extension
4. Faxon Match Series- 20" Heavy Fluted, .223 Wylde, Rifle-Length, 416R, Nitride, 5R, Nickel Teflon Extension
5. MRA V1 MATCH NITRIDE AR-15 BARREL 223 WYLDE Fluted SPR

I've also looked at some Ballistic Advantage but their all out of stock it seems right now. Or if you have other suggestions I am all ears. I pretty much need to buy everything and have just been doing a ton of reading.
 
So I wait for my receiver set to come. Hopefully in June. Here is my part list :)

ATRS FA Receiver set.
FNH CHF government 20" 1/7 RH twist Chrome lined barrel
A2 flash hider
BCM gas Block
BCM gas tube rifle length
Troy BattleRail SOCC151 - 15.125"
LMT BCG FA
LPK Colt Canada
Geissele 2 Stage (G2S) Trigger
Ergo grip RH
Colt Canada Buffer tube with C8 stock with H3 buffer and spring brownells
BCM enhanced med charging handle
Troy battle-sights BUIS
Aimpoint COMP M4s red dot sight

Im sure more will come to the build :)

So, I received my 2nd run slick side and lower a few weeks ago, and finally got everything put together and ran into a major problem. The upper receiver on the front side or the mag well protrudes ever so slightly past the lower mag well front side causing 30(5) round magazines to press and not drop free. has anyone else ran into this issue. and if so is there a fix or will it need to go back to atrs.
