That looks sweet. I don't imagine the rifles will ever get across the border, but I'd love to get a set of that furniture.

That looks great. I have finally given up on the C8A3. I don't think wee will get them imported and the cost looks like its too high anyway.

Nice looking weapon friend! Appear to be making some folks jealous below the border.

What did you do to,"make it a C8A3"? What configuration was it in when it arrived to you?

BTW, that Colt Tactical A3 on GB has a alloy stock instead of the fiberlite. |
