Got my m249 para bumpsaw in from the gunsmith, can't wait to test it out
It's not 100% done, still got a m249 rubber buttpad incoming, along with a m249 rear sight. Also have to break out the file and dremel and hand fit the Tapco SAW pistol grip to the bumpstock. All in all though, I think it came out fanfuckintastic 
Also ordered a MWG 90rd snail drum to round out my drum collection (3x D60's) I plan on Cerekoting it green to mimic a real m249 para even more
I'll update with gratuitous range video next week. 
I'm going to have to open up the gas port a bit, it was not working too well with the steel case, but ran wolf gold and then some IMI 193 so so nice 
Video 
Got the SAW grip installed and got my pelican case
dremeling is fun yo. 
grip comparison. had to remove about 1/8in material and mill out the pocket and re-drill the screw hole. 
Pelican case. Starting cutouts today 
9/17/16 Case done... Pelican case foam done. will adjust as I add rear sight and butt pad. 
used this... Proxxon 37080 hot wire cutter 
It was a very shallow learning curve, as long as you take your time, works great. Now I gotta finish up my other 1650 case I got off Amazon for $75

Consider this a tag for the video.
Edit: Had me fooled at first. I thought it was the actual civilian 249. I still watch the vid though

Living with 2 girls has it's pluses and minuses. And yes leg humpers.... video will likely include THEM shooting it. (both own guns) Taking them to the range next Sunday. I'll likely try to hit the range on my own on Wed to get it running reliably so Sunday goes smoothly. |

neat.
is that a direct impingment gas system? does it have a quick change barrel system (or are those studs for the custom handguard retention) ???? i take it the mono-block gas regulator under the barrel is faux, as is the gas tube, it does give it a very cool aesthetic and provides for the bypod ring. very cool. tagged for video |

I've never looked into it...does anyone make a quick change barrel system for ARs?
That's about the only thing I can think of that would really step up bump saws in the "close enough to a mg" list. |

Is there a reason for the handguard being so huge, or is it just for the M249 aesthetic?

Yes. Although many of the variants I am aware of are meant for caliber conversions although I don't see why you can't just buy a spare barrel in the caliber you wish to quick change. Ares has quick change barrels on their non belt fed version the Ares-15 MCR which is more affordable than their belt fed option. Edit: just re-watched the Dolos Quick Change video Review MAC did and while that system will let you use your existing barrel, it may require "alterations" to allow for a quick change with a smoking hot barrel.

I had an idea of how to do it, but it would involve making a rail that connected to the lower and let the barrel free float. The use one of those copper custom setups. I decided not to bother.

OP; that is the ugliest thing I have ever seen in my life. You should dispose of that immediately. PM inbound with possible disposal options.
Bad jokes aside, great work! Love the creativity you used to produce something that not only looks great but ought to function beautifully. I bet that will draw some attention when you shoot it in public.
