We need another L119 clone thread. I started piling parts up for an a1 a couple years back. Then I stopped bc it wasn’t an a2 and I wanted an a2. Then I happened to fall ass backwards into an a2.

Quote HistoryQuoted: what rail is that? It’s a Colt Canada L119A2 upper. It’s a monolithic upper receiver.

Quote HistoryQuoted: How did you come across that upper? I bought it from someone local who had it imported as a stripped upper while you could still get them commercially before the AWB went through in Canada. Strictly in the right place at the right time.... |

Quote HistoryQuoted: NICE! I take it that they unavailable? I’m not sure how true it is, but supposedly there are only 16 uppers total in the country between short/long, 10 short and 6 long. A buddy of mine has a factory assembled short he just picked up a few months ago. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: That’s a sweet upper, What size barrel is that 16”? The original factory Colt Canada UKSF upper was a 15.7”, this one has an American barrel in it with the correct profile and is 16”. |

Quote HistoryTo Colt Canada, it essentially is a C8 Carbine. To the UK MOD, its an L119A1. Isn't exactly the same as a base C8 Carbine, but very close I have all the parts I need for the 10" A1 except for the lower, super excited to get that done. My C8 SFW comes first though |

Mine is still in process but I think I have almost enough to put together a quasi-clone which will be close enough for me. |
