The Magpul handguards look good on everyone else's Dissy, then I try them on mine and it doesn't do it for me. I've tried a bunch of different stocks including fixed, carbine, etc and am never satisfied.

What options are there for faux dissy barrels?

I was looking at PSA but they’re nitride and the barrel nut is torqued by a gorilla, Delton has one but it’s an HBAR which I have no interest in.

PSA has a stainless dissy upper for $319 right now.   Sometimes they have the FN barrel dissy also.

From the other Dissipator thread:

16" lightweight Dissipator barrel made by Ballistic Advantage for Brownell's.

Brownell's (Ballistic Advantage) 16" Lightweight Dissipator Barrel 1-8 Rifle Length

The next one is $25 more than MSRP, but they're sold out on the Spinta website.

Used LEO Bushmaster Dissipator uppers.

Unknown gas system, bolt carrier inclusion, or other details.  You should probably call them, first.

PSA dissy upper I bought maybe around 2010?

Came with round handguards but I added a MOE handguard, which I liked but then bought a blem Mk8 to replace a Mk3 (not mlok) so Mk3 replaced the MOE.

It's a fun, cheap gun.

Still have the handguards if anybody wants them. PM me.

Does anyone still make a lightweight FSB dissy mid or rifle gas length 16 inch barrel or upper?  Spikes used to make an awesome GMP mid length 16 inch dissy upper.  I had one, sold it, and have regretted since.

Not sure if it's a LW profile (the description doesn't say and I'm too lazy to go pull mine out) but PSA has them pretty cheap.

I haven't touched mine in many years so I can't even remember what it looks like.

It’s not.

I did some reading, apparently a 20” lightweight barrel weighs less than a 16” government profile barrel. I was planning on doing a slickside dissy but if it’s going to weigh more I’ll just keep it at 20”.

I asked Mike at H&R about doing some lightweight dissy barrels, he said it probably won’t happen.

Funny enough,  I'm doing to two slickside build but using an 18in bbl for one and a10.3/5 for the other.

I need the FN CHF barreled PSA uppers to come back in stock. I knew I should have bought two last time they were available. One to keep as a flat top and one to swap onto an A2 upper.

Pretty much set and done. Just need to get the sling made for the shorty. Yes it's a dissy too

These are nice.

Mid-length dissy on an A1 upper is quite cool.

PSA Dissy, swapped flat top for the A1 look, being a lefty I appreciate the brass deflector.
It is a mid-length gas, Looks to me like a gov profile.

@rhaney02 been lurking on this thread for awhile in anticipation of building a Dissy (hopefully) soon and just wanted to say your build is an inspiration for me, I keep coming back to look at this pic! I only wish Magpul still made the foliage green furniture.

ETA: saved pic to desktop!
