Looks good!  I can't wait for my stamp to get here, but patience is a must for NFA items...

Does anyone have pictures of a FDE evo 3 with a FDE shockwave blade? Would like to know if they colors match.

The shockwave blade FDE is not quite a match for anything. I work in a custom cerakote shop and I took the FDE blade and cerakoted it with regular FDE (not magpul FDE) and it matches very closely to CZ's FDE color. Close enough that my OCD isn't bothered. Use a matte finish and it looks very nice.

That's an interesting setup, indeed - easy field use?

The sling is really comfortable. The padding really helps. I am glad I grabbed the non-bungee version of the sling though.

It almost looks like a real suppressor. You can see the off-colored mount under the handguard

Picked this up last weekend, only have a couple of minor add-ons so far. The BCM Gunfighter Mod 3 is so accommodating to the way I hold long arms that I'm planning to swap the RVG I have on my AR to one as well. I also put a Magpul M-LOK handstop on the front end because I felt the Scorpion looked naked without its "stinger."

Sorry for the poor-quality photo; good lighting is hard to come by in my apartment once the sun goes down.

Are you crazy??? That is an awesome pic and your lighting is perfect! Not light shadow box perfect, but more like character and environmental qualities. Nice "stinger" by the way

Valk, I have to agree, that photo looks great, as does your Scorpion, of course.

Mine just arrived at my local FFL moments ago, and I get to see it Friday night...

EDIT / ADD:  The "BCM Gunfighter Mod 3" is for the Bravo Company line, right?  Sorry for the ignorant question...

This looks to be it here:

Thanks for the kind words - the lighting *effects* look nice, but the general poor quality lighting is what's causing the photo to look all nasty and grainy due to the high ISO my phone throws on it. For comparison, this is a quickie I shot of my new Glock 19 with my iPhone with good, direct lighting, a much lower ISO, and a simple filter for that moody look  ;D: http://i.imgur.com/5k1M4ET.jpg

Yep, that's the one. I originally considered putting a Magpul M-LOK MVG on the Scorpion, but figured I'd try the Gunfighter since I wanted to try it on my AR as well (I have a cantilevered flashlight that encourages me to tilt my support hand forward on that gun). Turns out it feels better than the MVG in basically every way to me just because of that slight angle, so I left it on the Scorpion and ordered a second one for my AR. (I ended up with two Aimpoint H-1s last month in the same way.) There's also a "standard" Gunfighter grip that has integrated storage and a "broomstick" variant, but I don't really need either of those things and don't consider the additional $20 I'd pay worth it for either anyway. If you want to try one of the grips out yourself, I'd recommend ordering through AIM Surplus, who has them in a variety of colors and offers free shipping on all their BCM stuff.

Only downside to the Gunfighter is that BCM is wholly committed to Keymod since they more or less pioneered it, and that means no M-LOK versions of their accessories. Mine is attached to a 5-slot polymer M-LOK rail. The Gunfighter Mod 3 is juuuust long enough that one end of the 5-slot rail pokes out (you can see it in the front), and the other end of the grip hangs over the back end of the rail, leaving a small gap between the grip and the handguard. Annoying, but I can live with it.
