Following the SOPMOD Block II program to upgrade the U.S. Special Operation Forces Operator's main weapon system, the URG-I (Upper Receiver Group - Improved) was phased in for service in 2018.
Since then, the URG-I has become the "multipurpose" upgraded M4A1, frequently seen in the hands of the latest generation of U.S. SOF operators.
How well does the latest (and possible the last) upgrade of the M4A1 perform? We take a standard Geissele "near-clone" M4A1 upper to the range for testing.

I was one of the first 91F to convert uppers to the URGI configuration and I can't thank you enough for explaining to the clone community that we use multiple vendors. We had rosco mfg for the first couple of runs and I will put money on there being at least 2 other companies supplying barrels due to how fast the m855a1 is killing barrels. Clone guys are wild out here saying it's this and that when it's multiple suppliers. When we fist started the conversion they hadn't even finished the maintenance plan for replacement parts. So it literally can be anyone outside of rosco mfg now.

When it comes to Cloning rifles: my interpretation has usually been 1) Does it look like the target item & 2) is it in the spirit of the target item. I was a 91F, and yeah, you get components made by different subcontractors. As long as it meets spec, it doesn't matter who made it. When you start cloning something, it really comes down to how pedantic you want to be about it. Usually the more pedantic you want to be, the less likely it is your friends will want to hear about it.

I agree, military is about whatever works, not whatever brand name sounds better If you want to build a clone, all that matters is it looks the same (as similar as possible) and is just as good / works the same Hell, where I live the closest you'll ever get to M24 is Remington M700 and those clones sometimes do even better, I know a sniper who has built a clone of M24 for military (he wanted to fight with his own rifle) and he managed to get a .24 inch group with it. Is it a perfect clone? No. Is it close enough and get the job done? Absolutely

Not sure about the barrels on both, but the version with the cuts on the side of the barrel for the M203 were a 100% fail as the barrels wore out faster as the heat effected them badly. No aware of any problems with the MK2 generally, however if you are buying new stuff, get what you want. The supply chain probably still has M16A1 and earlier parts hiding somewhere, LOL. Look at the Air Force, they never throw anything away, just rebuild, and rebuild.

To touch on the replacement parts procurement side of things, the reason why "mil spec" exists is for this very reason. Mil spec is not in fact garbage, the requirements for something to be actual, real, "mil spec" are quite specific, and the testing requirements for mil spec are extremely rigorous. Mil spec even goes so far as to make hard requirements on how waste material will be disposed of during manufacturing, because they consider scrap to be a component of the classified data package. This is what allows the Military to go to basically anybody with the full technical package of what they need and have those parts made, and it goes well and beyond firearms and firearms accessories as well. End of the day, the Military doesn't care who made the barrel, who made the hand guard, who made the pins, what they care about is, is it a cold hammer forged barrel of such length, finished as required? Is this hand guard compatible with the ones they're using, and is equivalently designed? Are these pins made to ANSI specifications?

People like tossing "milspec" in with "lowest bidder" as if the two are interchangeable also, not realizing that the specification is going to be met by company A and B the same, regardless of if company B charges more. Best part of milspec is knowing if I snag a part for a gun, that it will physically fit with other milspec parts (provided the QC was done properly).

That also said, if they knew the extensive gauging and destructive testing a lot of genuine manufactured to mil-spec standards requires, a whole lot of people would be singing a completely different song about certain manufacturers and mil-spec in general. There's a reason why a PSA AR15 can be bought for 500$, while an FN AR15 made from parts coming off their M4 lines, despite PSA and FN sharing several OEM manufacturers for things like BCG's, costs twice as much.

Being a (albeit USCG) armorer, having to have replaced multiple barrels and parts I 100% agree that none of us care that it is correct to issue. We take whatever stock part we have and throw it on provided it is within spec.

In 2020 Geissele release their clone correct version, then retired it. Then re-release the Geissele near clone in 2023. Before that The DD mid-length barrel became hard to source, so the Armory that built mine, built it with military contract equivalent with a FN 14.5" CMV 4150 chrome-lined Government profile mil spec phosphated barrel with a DD MK12 gas block and NSN Surefire 4-prong flash hider.

From what I’ve seen, the Geissele barrels are top shelf. Exceptional accuracy, great gas port sizing and very nice finishes. I’m a big Daniel Defense fan as well. They are actually similar in production. Both are cold hammer forged and chrome plated. Both barrels are lapped before and after chrome plating for excellent accuracy. Both barrels are truly excellent, you will be happy with your URGI or Super Duty regardless of the barrel, whether it be DD or Geissele in-house.

Also really important to note the Geissele enhanced Bolt and carrier.... The Carpenter 158+ FORGED bolt and enhanced carrier is a huge improvement over a standard BCG in terms of strength, and longevity, as well as reliability. The process of forging the bolt just creates far more strength, on top of the fact they work directly with Carpenter steel to produce the C158+ which is stronger in and of itself to begin with. And also a little touches such as the cam pin only being able to be inserted one way, effectively doubling its life ect. And the nanoweapon Coating is amazing as well. The entire thing is just a recipe for an amazing dedicated fighting/Duty carbine

An interesting fact about Colt barrels: even the older Colt barrels may or may not be manufactured by Colt. Some old Colt barrels were stamped with a "G" on the barrel extension signifying they were manufactured by Green Mountain Rifle Barrell Company. Colt subcontracted them back in the early days of GWOT. These are excellent old-school TDP-like barrels.

I have one each 16” and 14.5” Geissele barrels on two very nice rifles I’ve built. Both shoot sub 1 MOA with 5 shot groups (AAC 75gr). They are both very well gassed rifles and very pleasant to shoot. I’m sold on their barrels and it was good to see your results.

Used the block 1 and then the mk18 in the military, great guns. Used and abused those things. Bought an 11.5 super duty(urgi) cause I didn’t want the same exact gun as my issued but close enough. I was so impressed I bought the 14.5 urgi. Definitely a huge improvement, even with the bolt and carrier system. Super soft shooting and suppresses very well.

Same as B5 making the sopmod stocks, and P&S products making RIS/RAS rails, vert grips, rail covers. They also have made waffle stocks, M4,& CAR handguards that are marked 4U485. Even upper receivers have been made by other companies besides Colt, and FN. I have a M4 stamped above the gas tube that with a "1KW91" instead of a C above the forward assist, that was an actual fielded upper. So, yes there are plenty of companies that make many of the parts.

I didn’t realize I was ahead of the times…. 2019…. I “built” an AR with a 14.7 BA Hanson pencil barreled with a Troy mlok hand guard and BCM upper with the mid length gas system, on a carbine length lower with an upgraded spring and H2 buffer…with deadair flash hider pin and welded…. A 10 shot group was 1.42 at 100…. With 1-8 lpvo. Using 75 grain frontier. Great run out to 720 with a 14.5 gun. Badass!

It's hard to believe that you managed to go out that far and that good, and consistent...There is a lot to be said both about the rifle and your skill, it really shows how good both are. Not forgetting the consistency of the ammo either. I can only dream of being able to do the same with a rifle twice the cost of that and in a caliber that's better suited for the task
