The above information is just a start and isn't complete. If you have any information, please post it here and I will update the build list.

Here is my MK13 Mod 7 clone, built for me by Robert Gradous. Some stuff isn't "as issued" (Atlas bipod and monopod, NightForce scope rings, S&B 3-27x56 with H59, Victor Company Grippy Cheekrest, spiralock barrel threading), but I'm pretty happy with it! I just received the trigger in the mail yesterday (after a very long wait) and it's one of the first MK13 triggers to be mailed out to a civilian.

Guys, this is my first post on M40Rifle. I got on board because I noticed members are discussing the M13 and it's various mods. I am in the process of completing a build of a Mk13 Mod 7 and only have a few items to complete. So, let me charge ahead.

As I say I am almost complete. My final items are a scope mount, trigger and sling. With this post I have taken care of the trigger.

USMCSGT0331, is your listing of parts above an official list of SOCOM specified M13 Mod 7 sepecific parts. Particularly I note the Larue Tactical QD mount. I ask because I have read info indicating a Spuhr mount?

Anyway, nice to be here and help if you can. Thanks.

Welcome to the site and congrats on the Mod 7 build! The list is something that I put together (format was created by another member on this site) with the information I had available. I haven't heard of units using the Spuhr mounts on MK13's, but anything is possible. I say anything is possible because Crane ships the MK13's to units as bare rifles. It's up to the unit (SF, SEALS, MARSOC, CAG, ect.) to select and mount the optic they want to use.

Unfortunately I don't know which LaRue mount is used, but MARSOC does use their QD mount. Here's a pic from the MARSOC Advanced Sniper Course that shows this mount in use:

Thanks for the welcome.

Learning that units receive bare rifles answers a lot of questions. As for the model of Larue QD mount, there are only 2 that would allow for close optical cenering with the addition of a clip on night vision device (CONV).
The LT111 and the LT807. Which one is actually specified by MARSOC is still to be determined. With my build I am leaning a little more towards a SEAL version, but since everyone does their own thing the QD would work here too.

Actual Mk13 Mod 7 "in use" photos are very rare. Thanks. Nice profile shot.

Glad to see you onboard

Nice community we have here. Enjoy!

Nice rifle ...

Nice rifle ...

Thanks man! And if I didn't live in a shit hole called Chicago, I'd probably get to shoot it more than once a year......

A buddy of mine who's currently in MARSOC sent me some pics of his issued MK13 Mod 7. He hated the silvery blasted finish on the barrel, so he gave it a shot of tan from a rattle can (can be seen in the first picture).

[Orvar]

Do you know if the suppressor in the first picture is the FA762SS or is it the SOCOM762-RC?

[Orvar]

It must be the SOCOM762-RC since the FA762SS didn't come in FDE.

0331 you need to give us an update on your Mk13.

[pmclaine]

Hmmm, interested in the trigger.

I've been looking for an M24 to put in a short action but........
