Wrong caliber, but much GWOT inspiration!

I sold that setup and replaced it with a 6944.

So I just bought this for $215. Figured I could make a sweet GWOT rifle with it. You guys have any ideas or suggestions? Any pics of A2 uppers with ARMS rails?

I've always loved the ridiculous look of those rails.  I can't explain it.

Slap on one of those old school cmore sights or an old trijicon reflex sight.

Yeah same here. I like the idea of an old trijicon on it. I see beat up ones all the time I’m sure I can find one for a good price. Any idea on barrel length? P&W 14.5 with extended A2? I kinda like the thought of putting a short barrel on it but I just don’t know. That’s why I wanted to see some pics. You think it’s GWOT enough to be in this thread?

12.5 would be dope.

It's definitely GWOT.

Yeah she's gonna get something in the 10.3/5", 11.5", or 12.5" flavor. I'm gonna have to hunt down a Redi Mag and an older Trijicon reflex for the time being. Anything I'm missing?

Alright gents, the man I bought the rail system from offered to sell me a bushnell HWS gen 1 with the original box and sunshade for $150. Here’s a pic of it with the upper. What says the hive? Should I buy it for the build? Honestly to me it looks beautiful.

727s, Swan sleeve, and the pre-EOTech HWS all were "in service" at the same time.

You totally should, though I’m a little biased.

Might have a Redi-Mag for you too, want to try it out on a faux dissy first though. I’ll post that up for post 2006, seems appropriate.

See man, I called it. Gonna regret selling this stuff one day.

Has to be a John Masen pad with zip tie to hold that shit straight.

The same man just offered to send me a redi mag for the build with the Bushnell. This dudes robbing me of all my money. Upper and rail should be getting here soon, don’t know when I’ll get the Bushnell and Redi Mag, just gotta send him the funds. This build is slowly coming together but it’s put all my other builds on the back burner

Would it be sacreligous to put a 10.5-12.5” (with an SBA4 brace) or 16” 7.62x39 barrel on the A2 with the A.R.M.S. handguard? I already have another 16” 5.56 A2 upper, so depending on y’all’s input will determine whether this handguard and upper will get a x39 barrel, or I’ll transplant the barrel from my other A2 and put a x39 barrel on there.

Both GWOT inspired, but the MK-12 is pretty close to clone correct minus the BUIS and Larue mount

Thanks man! She’s already wearing a 16” M4 profile barrel with FSB, I have a Bushnell HWS, a Redi Mag and an LMT charging handle from the same guy coming in soon. Now I just need a good stock for it and I’ll get her all up running.

Well here she is built up. My Bushnell HWS, Redi Mag, and LMT charging handle are on their way. This is my only old school cool build and I’m happy with the way it’s turning out. Any recommendations for it? I was thinking a grippod just for looks but I don’t know. Any suggestions and thoughts are appreciated!

Surefire M900A, shave the nub off the A2 grip, and high-temp RTV mod the charging handle. I’m a fan of the classic red RTV.

Sorry for the kind of crappy lighting. I didn't realize how dim they were when I took them.

Just got this PRI rail. The STR stock is temporary for now, I think I'm eventually going to go with a CTR or Sopmod. I'm not going full clone but I am thinking about picking up a PSA M4 marked lower for it.

This guys finally wearing an A2 stock. I think its ready for paint now. Just have to decide if I'm going to use some green or all desert colors.
