RCMP C8 Clone Build

If you do a google search on " RCMP C8 forum " you should be able to find all the specs etc on the RCMP patrol carbine.

Hmm... can't say I like how the RCMP have chosen to configure the IUR patrol carbine. Particularly the front sight. Why not either use a standard C8 sight, or alternately, go with a rail mounted BUIS. Clearly the optic is the primary, that flimsy front sight design just looks too fragile for real work. Equally perplexed by the Ergo Grip and LMT SopMOD. It's like some guy at ERT just specced out his personal favourite rig, no allowance for the average member who might have smaller hands or prefer a narrower cheek weld.

I semi agree. It's a slick rig to shoot for sure, so it's hard to complain. But I will anyway. ;)

Not a fan of the ergo grip, the way we are trained to shoot it it's at a very uncomfortable angle, it's a little heavy with the full rails on all 4 sides, of which about 6 actual rails get used on the fore end.

But that front sight, well the amount of times I have smashed my elbow into that in the truck, it hasn't budged, and doesn't move, and hurts me all the time. It's quite solid, trust me on that!

I here ya. I can't believe how many times I keep hitting my elbow on that thing when I get into the vehicle. That being said, pretty slick rig. The muzzle break on their absolutely eliminates muzzle climb. The trigger is fantastic and it is nothing to shoot tighter groups at 100m that a person should be able to do with a red dot. The Comp m4 is nice as is the flashlight. The way they train you to shoot with that foregrip is completely asinine. That all being said, I am glad we have them.

The Tango is not used as a vertical grip but as a reference point. We give them #### if they use it as a vertical grip.

I realize that. Just saying it does not make sense to put an accessory on there specifically designed to grab into in a position that make it easy to grab onto and then tell people not to grab onto it. I routinely see fingers creeping down onto it. Then you have people coming in for recerts that have been practicing using a full grip on it...:bangHead:
Its presence and location can make it difficult for some new users to get a proper C clamp.

Yeaah I don't like foregrips at all. Only time I used them was as a barricade stop. Then I bought a barricade stop and it's waaay better than a foregrip, until you start jamming the teeth into your leg lol.

The vertical foregrip needs to go.

Ok...I gotta ask...what is the stance like? Hand position? If not used as a grip, what’s the grip for? If it’s only used as a reference point, why have all that bulk of a grip and not a hand stop or tactile rail cover? Unless of course this is some secret squirrel stuff.

I view grips like I do pistol grips and stocks...whatever floats your boat and achieve zen with the principles of marksmanship.

Even that guy in the pic is a little too on the vertical grip.

Its only a minor gripe. Everyone loves the rifle...its great
