Hi VSelph, I have some questions for your M203 on your retro rifle. Where did you get the 37mm launcher at, and where did you get the mounting system for it? I am currently building a 603 M16A1 and really like the 203 look.
Thanks in advance |

RTI parts kit with JD Machine lower with Green Mountain Barrel. Not correct but prefer the prong flash hider look
Just waiting on a NoDak (like everyone else ) http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k165/pacpiper/M16a1/64ffdd06-c046-4bbb-a423-820329bb3e4f_zps73e167d0.jpg~original |

Nehi, Wow, your Upper definitely has that BTDT look. Now you need to get a NoDak Lower and give it the BTDT treatment. Then it'll look like an old Warhorse. NDS does have some XM16E1 Black "Blem's" in stock right now, if your interested. I know because I just got one. |

Yeah, I probably will eventually get a Nodak lower. I really don't know how I can get the anodizing to chip so it matches the upper though

Just finished my GAU build: originally was going to do both a GAU 5a & 5a/a. Not much time on my hands anymore, so I just combined my 5a lower to my 5a/a upper. It was kinda a disappointment to me due to the lower / upper gap, but she shoots like a champ, and the build was fun. She's not really 100% accurate on one specific model, but shines with the spirit of USAF frankencarbines

That is sweet! I carried the Colt version for 4 years. You should post that in the A2 Forum.

TheStinger, nice looking collection you have there. I like your 605, but, I would send that Upper Half to John Thomas, to have the barrel cut back to the front of the FSB, like a true 605. That way he can make sure it'll operate properly. |

My Company X0 carried this same setup during the invasion of Panama in 89. We all were 'look at that fucker!' when he came out of the HHC arms room with it.

It’s just lighting, same lower. I’ll have it coated later so all parts match
