I just thought I would share an old blast from the past, when the first Shrike's shipped, there was a guy building uptight feed boxes for standard AR-15/M16 lowers.  It allowed the feed box to sit up high and tight.
There were very few made before the builder threw in the towel.  It just took way tool long to hand build each one.  I sold this one recently on GunChoker and it brought $600+.

Wow Tony! I swear he was still advertising them on snugbus just a year or so ago. He did always say how much labor went into them.

That's him!  For the life of me, I couldn't remember his name from the SnugBus days.
