Bought this from a guy off Club S12, who has since deployed to Iraq for 18 months, under the assumption it was a stock bore H/G. It's not. It's an 85mm H/G. I need a stock bore 1.2mm stock thickness Cometic H/G. The packaging was ripped when I recieved it. I will post some pics tonight when I get home. - $65 shipped takes it. My loss is your gain.

I'm pretty sure even the stock HG's are 85mm. I know the rings on my stock dimension felpro were larger than the bores.

I apologize I haven't seen a stock H/G be 2mm oversize from the stock bore. It's an 83mm bore. So running an 85mm bore H/G will be fine???
