Jim, I didn’t realize you were a pastor in a past life. I especially liked your interpretation of Luke 24:5, it actually helped me think through some of the things going on through my life right now. I’ll definitely be meditating and praying over it. Thanks for sharing your faith and this build man, it looks like it’s going to be a solid one. Shoot straight, God bless.
just found you on here, and after watching this vid, it confirms why i was inclined to subscribe. i appreciate your character and what you are about. thanks for the content you are sharing. God speed
I sent a detent spring from a radian ambi safety flying across my backyard….I found it 10 minutes later I shit you not. This was the greatest discovery in Fudd history lol
When I got the the psalm quote I had to pause and leave the video... to go write down the psalm. This one hit me pretty good and I hope nothing but good future for you in both this industry, and HIS industry. I'm in New England and really wish I was down that way and could come shoot with you and the gang. Keep doing it right down there.
Good looking rifle with some nice touches. I was never sure why you weren't running more magnification for the distances you shoot. A video breaking down some of the different competitive opportunities for those of us shooting gas guns, and any particular classification requirements would be cool.
Fascinating build. Most of it out of my economic range. I don't aspire to such long-range accuracy, but I admire the heck out of what it takes to get there. Most of all, your life philosophy resonates with me. Rock on, brother
Solid build for DMR matches. You’ll crush it especially with that glass and the flat bottom arca rail. I typically compete in PRS because there aren’t scoped carbine matches anywhere near me. The Midwest needs to step that up
I use their Dead Air Keymo brakes. So far they have been very good to me. I run a VLTOR A5 system on an 11.5" that tends to be suppressed more than not and I really enjoy that system.
Would you say the FCD charging handle is better at venting gas away than a PRI gasbuster? Also, have you ever considered adding M-Lok weights to your rifle for recoil mitigation?
I recently got into precision bolt rifles and realized I never once had a proper cheek weld on any of my ARs lol. Now I’ve tried all 3 heights of the magpul CTR riser for my “SPR”. Landed on the .5” for the best fit for my face. Just curious if you’ve played with any of those?
Yup I have quite a few of them from irregular defense. I use them with risers but not on this gun. I learned from Alex at Ridgeline that little looser cheek weld can be more beneficial in awkward positions
Hello. I’ve always had respect for you but have greater respect even now!!!! Blessings to you always and forever!! I really would like to know when your merch will drop?? EXCELLENT AND REALLY INFORMATIVE VIDEO!!
I know it’s preference-based but why the MIAD grip for an SPR? I would’ve imagined something more shallow like a B5, BCM, or K2 grip for something more precision based. Over-all though, it’s a stunner👌🏽👌🏽
@@jimmybrodriguez thanks for the reply. Love the engravings btw to reference your days as a pastor and to keep both your hobbies and your faith synced together is super cool! Bless up man and if you ever find yourself visiting west coast, would love to meet you!
Was thinking about doing this with a cobalt pro. I want the 13.7 ck-pro version and I want to swap an infidel barrel for the roscoe. The only issue is even the extended Huxwrx I’m still short .2 inches. Any ideas? I’m New to the suppressor world and I have a regular infidel I just want a 13.7 midlength that I can suppress. Any input helps
Some cans are comfortable without earpro for a few shots but I wouldn’t recommend you completely skip earpro for 5.56. I have to double up unsuppressed and indoors and outdoors when shooting 5.56 I’m happy if I can just wear one layer of earpro with a can.
What they’re referring to is single shot readings. They are “hearing safe” meaning a single shot won’t cause immediate/permanent hearing damage, but with prolonged exposure to high decibel sound you can still get hearing loss/damage
I know it’s almost blasphemy, but my expensive Noveske recon is far from my most accurate barrel. Maybe I got a lemon. Id like to see some groups when you can do the comparison. Try some other barrels when you can. I’m liking a proof stainless right now. I have an old Larue that shoots great. Some of the newer barrels from them have not been as good.
I'd say Noveske are known historically for consistent quality more than anything and it's tough losing the founder of any company. Lots of good AR pattern rifle barrels out there. Unless you are running a gas gun against bolt guys in an informal benchrest competition, there's plenty of accurate barrels to choose from. I have good barrels from Odin Works and AR Performance. And you can spend a bit more than those prices and get into Shilen, Bartlein, Krieger levels, or Proof if you want a more fancy or carbon sleeved thing. And, lots of barrels can be accurate if you can handload for your barrel & chamber.
Great setup as always! Just wondering if you have an inside scoop on the Acro’s? I’ve tried Big-Tex, B&T, Piece of Mind, and quite a few more places places with no luck. Thanks for the help! Enjoying watching the channel grow.
Just that i know? Is it possible to put in whatever barrel into a knights? or is it proprietary? Since u are always talking about swapping bartrels fromdifferent companies.
Knights has a proprietary barrel extension and bolt as well as a proprietary gasblock (and perhaps even gas system length, but I‘m not sure about that last one) so no, you can’t really and if you do, you‘re essentially replacing all the parts that make the KAC more reliable and differentiate it from a regular AR.
Not related to this video, may have missed this in a past video, but how does your 12.5 noveske run with the mid length gas system? How is the gas when running it with a can?
What bullets and grain are you shooting? What is the chamber of your Noveske, . 223, . 223 Wylde, or 5.56? Thanks! Beautiful firearm! I really enjoyed your opener...

You didn't record the part where a roll pin or spring flies across the room and is lost forever.... lol
It do be being like that

😂😂😂The area around my garage workbench has consumed countless small parts never to be seen again.
The intro of laying it all out and the building beginning was absolutely perfect
Love the origin and meaning behind Rod and Rose. Sweet build too!
I want Cobalt 20" 6ARC SPR Upper pretty bad . Cobalt makes top notch stuff
That would be a sizzler!
Great build and attention to detail. Also much respect to include your faith on the design and have a deeper meaning to it, God bless
I love what you said about the inscription, you are 100% about those living in the past…
Love the faith and family touch to your rifle. Lovin the channel as well. Thank you for the content you share
Awesome build!!! Love the meaning behind the rod and rose!
🤘🏼
@@jimmybrodriguez Same here… can't wait for the merch.
Cobalts rifles have had my interest for a while now.. they’re pretty sweet machines
the color scheme on this is perfect
Thank you for sharing some of your history and background
Look at you set that table like it’s dinner time. Bless us o Lord and these thy gifts which we are about to assemble through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Really like what you are doing in the AR space.Keep up the great work.
Oh boy this was a fantastic video, much appreciated. Thank you Jim.
🤘🏼glad you liked it
What a setup. Awesome stuff and the lockup and design that kobalt is doing is king.
Right. Copied the Aero Enhanced.
@@beck4218 and aero copied Seekins. Lining up those tapers is what sets kobalt apart

Don't forget big sizes when the Rod and Rose Merch drops
Love the heart behind it man. Lion and lamb.

I think I can make that happen
As always dude you’re crushing it. Thank you for what you are doing for the firearms space 👊🏼👊🏼
Appreciate you a ton homie! I'll be out your way soon
@@jimmybrodriguez let me know I’d love to see you dude.
The koeng mount is dope. Didn’t know there was a mounting solution for NF mounts.
yeah its been pretty solid so far
Fascinating build. Most of it out of my economic range. I don't aspire to such long-range accuracy, but I admire the heck out of what it takes to get there. Most of all, your life philosophy resonates with me. Rock on, brother

I’d buy one. That’s awesome man. My mother had a rose tattoo on her ankle, she’s passed on but I certainly respect the meaning behind your setup.
Sweet setup, thanks for sharing! 🤙🏻
Love that you put a Bible verse on the rifle ! God is good! Also love the rifle set up.
Shoutout to you for the discount at Tag!!!!

Yeah me too
Love the watch 👌🏽

Appreciate it! I've got my eye on one more
Just let me know when It goes into Production. Good info about the often neglected details of the guts of the rifle is the Nugget for me.
Love the content. Continue to put God first and everything else will fall into place.
always well done, young man…grateful
Beautiful build!
When is the SOLGW barrel going to drop?
today
Love the naming concept
When that Merch drops I’m in! Like the idea of R&R
Great video
Would you say the FCD charging handle is better at venting gas away than a PRI gasbuster? Also, have you ever considered adding M-Lok weights to your rifle for recoil mitigation?
Haven't messed with the gas buster enough to have a fair opinion

I currently have a cobalt spr on over, I just their customer support/service was easier to get a hold of.
Odg and peanut butter is my favorite color combo. I have 2 geissele builds and working on an adm. The combination is pyur seks!!
Have you tried a criterion barrel? If so what did you think when compared to higher end like Noveske, FN, or custom.
I haven’t yet. I’ll be getting one in the future for testing. Joe from bruiser industries said his is a tac driver
Hello. I’ve always had respect for you but have greater respect even now!!!! Blessings to you always and forever!! I really would like to know when your merch will drop?? EXCELLENT AND REALLY INFORMATIVE VIDEO!!
I like what they did with the a 5 buffer. Now i dont have to machine my own anymore
Hello Jimmy, what kind of noveske barrel are you running and what length is the gas system ?
Beautiful 🙏🙌👍
appreciate it
I know it’s preference-based but why the MIAD grip for an SPR? I would’ve imagined something more shallow like a B5, BCM, or K2 grip for something more precision based. Over-all though, it’s a stunner👌🏽👌🏽
Just preference and I wanted to try the MIAd because you can adjust the diameter of the grip

Thanks!
Which Noveske barrel did you throw in here? Any thoughts on some of the different offerings?
How do you like the suppressor, does it reduce the sound pretty well, that you would not need hearing protection.
It’s 5.56…that’s not a real thing…
Some cans are comfortable without earpro for a few shots but I wouldn’t recommend you completely skip earpro for 5.56. I have to double up unsuppressed and indoors and outdoors when shooting 5.56 I’m happy if I can just wear one layer of earpro with a can.
I like the suppressor. The tone is good. I hear the 7.65 is better. I still use ear pro with almost all cans that aren’t shooting subsonic
@@jimmybrodriguez thank you..some companies say that they get it low enough not need ear protection.
What they’re referring to is single shot readings. They are “hearing safe” meaning a single shot won’t cause immediate/permanent hearing damage, but with prolonged exposure to high decibel sound you can still get hearing loss/damage
Where did u get the fde scope ring adapter ? Is it from Nightforce I can only find it in black.
Check euro optic or optics planet
not going to lie, I went to their store to look for this setup.
Maybe one day I’ll have a rifle available
Great rifle and video!
what tripod are u running? is there a big difference between all the different ones other then the weight?
Really Right Stuff. Weight, strength, how the legs deploy. How it connects is the most important part.
What color of green is that from Vulcan?
It’s a secret but standby
Dude.. nice set up!!
Adj or regular gas block with that can?
Regular gas block. I’m not a fan of adjustable blocks
I know it’s almost blasphemy, but my expensive Noveske recon is far from my most accurate barrel. Maybe I got a lemon.
Id like to see some groups when you can do the comparison. Try some other barrels when you can. I’m liking a proof stainless right now. I have an old Larue that shoots great. Some of the newer barrels from them have not been as good.
reach out to Noveske directly. They are really good with warranty.
I'd say Noveske are known historically for consistent quality more than anything and it's tough losing the founder of any company. Lots of good AR pattern rifle barrels out there. Unless you are running a gas gun against bolt guys in an informal benchrest competition, there's plenty of accurate barrels to choose from. I have good barrels from Odin Works and AR Performance.

Who makes your optic caps? Are they durable?
one hundred concepts. Yes, they are. They have a newer attachment option that works better too.
I went on one hundred concepts website, don’t see them. The optic caps on this video look like TENEBRAEX.
@@egeneraltnf yeah I don’t use the tenebrex anymore they tend to spin loose under recoil

Hey Jimmy! Quick question, do you lap your receivers when building a new rifle? Thanks for all the awesome content!
Currently doing a budget build.
Not related to this video, may have missed this in a past video, but how does your 12.5 noveske run with the mid length gas system? How is the gas when running it with a can?
Is Proof Research a better barrel than Noveske?
Depends on who you ask. I've heard OEM Proofs aren't as good as the Proofs direct from Proof
What bullets and grain are you shooting? What is the chamber of your Noveske, . 223, . 223 Wylde, or 5.56? Thanks! Beautiful firearm! I really enjoyed your opener...
Nice rifle Jimmy 🤙
Appreciate it
Great build!! I love forward controls and Roger and his team are incredible. Better functional parts that look better as well. #dimplegang
What length handguard did you go with?
What do you use to capture the crosshair camera? It always looks good
anyone know what that magazine stand is hes got on there?
You can shoot a long way with a good 1-8
Further than people think
What Harris bipod is that one?
What word don’t they like? “Jim’s” or “Life”?
Def Life
Hey Jim. How long is that handguard?
When do the lowers go on sale?
What butt pad and bag rider is that?
Looks like an Arisaka bag rider
He says it in the video around 12:30, it’s Arisaka.

Chill Jimmy Your Hurting All Hodge and KAC Guys , Noveske Over Everything >
hahaha guys don't like it when I tell them we've had 4 KAC rifles that wouldn't group better than 1.5 moa with 3 different shooters
@@jimmybrodriguez lol I have them all and Noveske is KING , I been telling them too.
It’s crazy, my last name is Rodriguez, and my moms name is rose.!

Lol for real though
With that receiver set and handguard, Cobalt basically just copied Aero's homework and sold it for a massive markup.
Several companies have used this design for years.
Lwrc has a similar design as well.
Clout tax
I would love to be able to open a rifle like that. Beautiful. I’d be blessed just to have an Acro by itself. Let alone that entire set up. Sexy
