Hummmm?
Digging around in the back room...
Found a Green set of A2 furniture..
Stock, Pistol grip, round handguards..
Then  I thought?
Let's build a green A2..
Found a A2 upper.. I have no clue who made it.. Matt black.
And a palmetto lower... Dug up a LPK, of some unknown maker...
(Trigger is typical military issue horrible)
Then opened up the barrel box..
(I've had this barrel for quite some time...guess I was waiting to get inspired..??? )
Windham weaponery government profile..1/7...
Non F marked FSB..
Stick the green furniture on... Presto... A green A2...
Anyone else have a green A2?

I built one fairly recently. Sort of an A2-ish build with M4 feedramps.

From page 33 of the A2 Photo thread:

Here is my "Clone-ish M16A2" built behind enemy lines (bayo lugs + A2 flash hiders = so evil we should give him the chair). The M4 ramps and OD furniture, while not clone correct, warm my heart.

- Recent production (2007) Colt 6520 receiver with M4 feedramps ["C" / Cerro Forge (keyhole) marked].

- 2019 Colt M16A4 barrel - Same profile as an A2, but with M4 ramps ("C MP 5.56 NATO 1/7" marked).

- Colt BCG ("C" marked carrier / "MPC" marked bolt) and Colt Charging Handle.

- Armalite clamp on FSB and pin/weld PWS FSC556.

- Armalite M15A2 furniture in OD green (shade is a perfect match to Magpul OD).

- PSA M16A2 clone lower. PSA parts for the internals and a Brownells (DPMS) receiver extension kit out back.

- Standard USGI cotton web sling (OD).

My 762x39 20in was green.

Wish I saved that furniture, I was just thinking about a green A2 the other day.

The green furniture looks fantastic. I had a green stocked armalite a2 back in the ban dark days. Great rifle

Sherluk Defense has OD green furniture in stock for those of you looking. I have no ties with the company, but I found what I needed for this build with them.
