Here are some photos of my first retro build...

What a blast!

(This one really shows off my oily finger prints! I guess I need to break out the LSA and give it a good bath)!

Thanks to those members who helped me locate parts (especially Hunterex, who got me started with an awesome upper), and shared their knowledge and tips!My plan is it to convert it to a late A1, when I replace the buttstock with an A1 Type 'E' trapdoor stock and a birdcage FH.

Nice!
Sure are a lot of people completing their projects lately.
It is making me itchy to finish my Prototype AR project.
