Keep a good watch on the EE, never know what will pop up when you least expect it

Thanks guys. This gives me a couple of good places to fall back to if I need to. Really kicking myself in the butt for not grabbing at least one when they where $39.99. This is supposed to be a cheap build, but I was thinking about getting the upper, lower and delta ring covered in some Norrells Moly resin's black grey.

Well it looks like my A2 project got a little setback. PSA refuses to ship lower receivers to MA. Even though they are completely compliant with MA laws. They should probably mention this on their website.
They can expect to not see any business from me again. |

It's bad enough living behind enemy lines, but it's even worse dealing with businesses that are so afraid of breaking the law that they rather not take the risk  Can't you get Anderson lower or something inexpensive and start with that?

PSA just canceled my order after I explained to them the lower was 100% MA compliant. I was going to try and do this build with as many PSA parts as possible. Now they won't get another cent from me.
I could do an Anderson, but they are usually over $75 locally. I'll just order another McKay or add a 2nd A2 lower to my standing order with NDS. Both companies that have no problem shipping to MA. |

What's really sad is that businesses ever have to fear that they may break some worthless gun control law in the first place...
Thankfully there are only but a few of such slave states left with which businesses have to worry about such nonsense. |

I was under the impression that they were using the screw type pivot pin at that time. |

Military M16A2 uppers made for Air Force conversions had counterbored ("rebated") front lugs for 601 and 602 lowers. |

I had thought about trying to find a complete Capco upper like the ones being sold a year or so ago on the EE for my NDS lower. That would have been a neat build. But I couldn't pass up this Colt upper. I''m running a preban grey small pin CMB forge code A2 upper on my 601 lower right now. I had a buddy that's a machinist rebate the front lug for me to use the 601 pivot pin. |

I'll repeat- I would like to see a picture. I'm not doubting you. I've never seen one.

There was a Colt Alcoa Forge (AF forge code) with rebated lug and factory feed-ramp listed for sale on EE not long ago for $150 bucks.

I've been fighting the bug to build an A2 upper based build, however I feel guilty for not shooting my other builds more often. Maybe if I buy just the upper right now and wait for sales or great deals, I can prolong having to buy another gun safe.
Either way, I'm leaning towards a Colt 727 clone. |
