I’ll consider myself lucky to grab a grey c7 on the first drop!

Is the A1 port door correct for a C7? I mean, it's an A2 with an A1 sight.

Would’ve liked a port door to replace the shit tier one that came on my commando upper.

Well anodized parts, just overly dyed. |

Death to quislings.

Relax guys, we only put 20 port doors in.
We’ll put more in today. I have A LOT of these now. |

Hi Mike,
I hate to be nitpicky, but I sent a 733 upper in for repair and came back with another issue. It was rebarreled while in for repair but has a rifle barrel extension installed with the C7 upper (has M4 feedramps), and now there is a pretty large lip for the tip of the bullet to catch on the way into the chamber. It doesn't have issues feeding every round, but 2-3 rounds out of 100 I shot to test have caught on the lip. Is this something I can send back in for another barrel? |

View Quote Yes, the barrel guys screwed up. The 11.5" is supposed to have M4 feed ramps. PM me your order number and we'll get you a shipping label. |

Good shit - I only needed a couple, but figured an extra would be good for a future build

$9.99 shipping for a port door? Ouch
|
|
|
Yeah, annnnd per each piece. was hemming on it and look like they're outta stock now any way.
I get it takes a picker to pull and box the order, but nine bucks per part is usury |

View Quote I just got a delta ring and it in between the really light color they had and the really dark, so I like it. Which stock, metal or plastic version? It looks like the metal ones are darker than the ones with the plastic stock but would also like to hear from someone. |

The website pics are old.
The current production parts are darker gray. |

Hey Mike. Wondering if you can offer the 2 position CAR15 buffer tube as a separate item? I have buttstocks but could use the grey tubes.
Second request: Make GAU-5A/A lowers! You would sell more slick side uppers and moderators if they can also be used to create Son Tay Raider clones. Its just a different roll mark on an XM177E2 lower. Thanks!! |

Got my blem XM177E2 lower yesterday and it looks great. Gray looks good and as usual, I can't tell what the blem is!
Filed for my Form 1 this morning. We'll see how long that takes this time. My IDF build took 80 days t get approved... New lower: Attached File IDF Menusar clone, just because I don't think I posted it before: Attached File |

Attached File I don't know if it matters (and honestly I don't think I did it on my Menusar) but when I uploading the pic for my Form 1 application I figured they needed the serial number and markings. I didn't want them to get squirrely over the auto marking. I used the same pic (without serial number) here. Not that leaving the serial number showing probably matters either, but I get tired of hearing people say I shouldn't so sometimes I remember and remove it. |
