    I really want to take some shots with good lighting. It was very dull here yesterday and the detail was not as good as I would like with the photos. Today is very bright sunlight and I'll take some photos very shortly to repost.

    The mount is direct bolt up to the gun, not adjustable. I spent quite a lot of time machining very small increments of material away until I got the Trijicon to zero as it was zero'd off of a Bushmaster. So taking it from one gun to the other would not require a major readjustment. It would not be difficult to make it adjustable using the stock FN adjustment screw sleeves. Which if I make another one, I'll do.

    OK, here are some better photos taken a short time ago with better light.










    The new rail with a Trijicon hung out in the scout position and the LaserMax UNI under the 'chin'

    To answer questions asked; the trigger is a new AMP Engineering aluminum Trigger which I reworked a little for my personal fit. I coated it in KG Gun coat as I did with the rail. The trigger was polished with a Scotch Bright pad to smooth it up after shooting over the matte finish hard anodizing to really smooth out the pull/feel. The radius curve of the trigger is much nicer than the very straight down factory plastic item. Plus it makes the gun look/feel like a gun, not a plastic toy. I love it ! Thank you AMP
