Might as well toss mine into the mix.

It's a Windham Weaponry, almost completely stock with the exception of having one of those little 'gappers' installed. Love those things.
5.56, m4 feedramps, M16 BCG, standard stuff, really.

This summer, When Brownells releases their repro retro a1 furniture, I'll be getting a pistol grip and handguard set to pop on it. Love those triangular handguards.

Very nice.

In that configuration with that optic. how much does it weigh? I've wanted to build a modern 20", probably a different rail but similar in weight.

Correct, a Gapper is a rubber plug that fills in the space between the winter trigger guard and the pistol grip.

I kept getting these odd calluses on my middle finger until I installed one on my service match rifle.

You do.
You need both.

They are our heritage, part of the history of our great military.
Look, I tried selling the ones I had at several points in my life.
By God, I had to freaking re-purchase them (different ones) or re-build, every time (and every time, I did a little better, built them a little more accurate, better looking, etc.)

Can't be without 'em A2s and A4s.
