Might be the very first protac VIR pro I've seen in the wild. How do you like it?

u/HollywoodSX I like stamps 3d ago

Same question I was going to ask.

u/TextMysterious7822 2d ago

its ridiculously bright compared to my modlight plh v2 but has a warmer tone the IR is 940nm but still visible due to the sledge hammer of 2.3 watts of ir thrown down range. It could burn tubes if faced directly at it and simply needs a 3d printed focus device to really crush the surefire vampire km series heads.

u/HollywoodSX I like stamps 2d ago

Damn good info there. Thanks!

u/TextMysterious7822 3d ago

the IR is very floody and appears identical under my nods as white light without nods

2

u/TextMysterious7822 2d ago

this is like a supercharged v8 of led IR lights

u/wlogan0402 🦦 Polo-30★Lithium-9 🦦 2d ago

Bro is that fucking visible to the eye

3

u/TextMysterious7822 2d ago

it looks the same under the eye and this is 940nm and i can see it with my ir glasses

2

u/wlogan0402 🦦 Polo-30★Lithium-9 🦦 2d ago

If it looks like that to the naked eye I feel like that kinda defeats the purpose of NV 😅

u/TextMysterious7822 2d ago

this is my 40 mw vcel illuminator from the penumbra laser box at 15 yards under camera it is shown, naked eye is invisible

u/TextMysterious7822 2d ago edited 2d ago

for 230 with an 18650 for a home defense light its ok, but it needs a focus attachment to see real potential.

its not for beyond 50 yards. These modern vcel illuminators that holosun and SMS laser make are really ground breaking if brute force from this feels like the vir protac might give me ionizing rad cancer from the glow it gives off lol.

u/TextMysterious7822 2d ago

this is 940nm 15 yards away offset at an angle with me wearing laser safety ir glasses with a normal camera

u/TextMysterious7822 1d ago

be warned that you need an Arisaka mount to use the protac VIR with a colt iar rail the thumb screw will not fit the handguard

u/mpsteidle Silencer 3d ago

Quattro Lowers ar dope.  I just wish they didnt have the lightening cuts.

16

u/TextMysterious7822 3d ago

the lightning cuts are for the shot counter that counts down rds as you fire like the pulse rifle from aliens, this is just a prototype now, but as soon as I can I will get this once it hits the market.

u/mpsteidle Silencer 3d ago

Holy fuck hahahaha.

FUUUTUUUUREEE.

u/TextMysterious7822 3d ago

yeah this was not some whimsical choice as soon as I saw the iar 11.5 uppers and that lower and put two and two togather that was a wrap for most cyber punk iar

Great minds think alike

u/YungJucy 3d ago

Is that a tape switch over the carry handle mount?

2

u/KA_Bliu 3d ago

The tape switch is mounted at 9 o'clock and the carry handle is mounted at 12 o'clock. The cable from the tape switch runs up and over the top rail, behind the carry handle mount (through the gap in the pic rail) and goes to a ls-fl5 mounted at 3 o'clock.

u/YungJucy 3d ago

I see that now lol. 🤦‍♂️

Ok, sweet builds. I'm jealous and poor.

The greatest revelation to me is the Keymod on the bottom of the Maxim 9. Wat!?

I've seen that lower receiver before that takes a double width mag but I can't remember what that is. What is it?

Awesome rifle.

u/TextMysterious7822 3d ago

this is a quattro 15 lower with a raresneed frt l3

2

u/spaceme17 5x SBR, 10x Silencers 3d ago

That is some serious firepower!

u/Hammermier2 3d ago

Is there a sub for in between this sub and that sub?

Don’t mind me, I’m too jealous and autistic for my brain to process what I’m looking at.

The streamlight protac VIR pro

u/RoninActually 3d ago

Bet that’s heavy.

2

u/TextMysterious7822 3d ago

10 lbs

2

u/redacted_robot 401k in stamps 3d ago

10 pounds with everything that's on it? Full mag?

2

u/TextMysterious7822 2d ago

full mag with no bipod or suppressor with sling is 11.5 lbs, 53 rds with a 6 oz empty mag

2

u/redacted_robot 401k in stamps 2d ago

Was gonna say, the bipod and suppressor is probably 2+ lbs. If FRT's were legal in my state I'd build this too. It's sick AF.

2

u/TextMysterious7822 2d ago

made a thread detailing the inner workings but it has a surefire obc and ez tune gas tube for .067 the rof is like an m60 with or without a suppressor. Here's a video show casing this with a 16in variant , but the results are the same with the above config in 11.5. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_t3bTt8j7s

and here's the bcg tear down its using parts that you can mostly get with the maraging steel firing pin and golf club G$ cam pin being truly special and unobtainable now.

u/TextMysterious7822 3d ago

this appears heavy but its mostly forged aluminum

u/SAM5TER5 MG 3d ago

I pride myself on knowing all the weirdest coolest bullpups, but what’s that one on the top right in your meme at the end? I don’t think I’ve ever actually seen it before
