Was given a 16" heavy barrel, and had most of the other parts, so,,,,,,,,,,"PSEUDO 605" My poor mans version, maybe someday i,ll find somebody to properly profile the barrel for me? And, a 1945 MK2 USN Machete i picked up recently from a very good friend, it goes nice with my "SEABEE" collection.

Looks good!
I love my pseudo 605 as it just feels great in my hands. Mine's built on a heavy carbine barrel with a low-pro gasblock and pinned FSB and I don't think I am going to bother to reprofile it at all. Here's mine and yes, it's built on a C7 upper too

Thanks, I now have an SP1 upper in black laying around so I am thinking of switching it out.

My opinion, leave it , it looks great. I think I'm going to do a carbine length system,
And will probably not pin and weld the flash hider. I might like to use a suppressor,,,,,, some day |

Mine the flashider is not pinned but the FSB is so that I can sling off it if I want to. It was done by somebody on here and he had to weld a slight bead on it to get the .750 FSB to fit tight on an HBAR carbine barrel.
I had a clamp on FSB but was just never real happy with it as it just seemed wrong. The one thing I like about the 605 is if you don't want to SBR or live in a state that doesn't allow them, they do a good job of looking like an SBR and don't look really dumb with a can on the end of a 16" barrel. Here's another photo to tempt you some more.

Lovin' the 605's. Nice build OP, especially since it has the glossy furniture, and correct lower.
I've had my 605 barrel with a smith now for over 14 months! I'm over the pond so much, I hit and miss with him, but I'm not in a rush. |

always loved these" kinda' sorta based on" builds...especially the 605 based ones
I'm sure it will quickly become one of you favorite carry around rifles as I have a couple of them using cut down A2 barrels (a Colt 1/7 & a Bushy 1/9) and they are a couple of my favorite range/wood/general plinking mutts |

I have a few projects stacked up. 605 is going to be 2nd in line. Still kibbutzing about how to go. To chop a retro barrel, or a repro barrel. Anyhow, I digress from my intent of saying that I like these kinda-sorta builds too. All of them look good. And the dissy approach - best of both worlds.

Appreciate all of the input fellows. I cant wait to take her out and she how she runs. Still a little confused though,,,,,,, should i be running a rifle buffer and spring, or a carbine buffer and spring with maybe a spacer in the buttstock to simulate the same tube length as a carbine?

It should have a rifle buffer and spring.

Quoted:
It should have a rifle buffer and spring. yeah, no matter what gas system the upper runs you go by what the lower is set up as...rifle extension = rifle spring/buffer...carbine extension = carbine spring/buffer. there are some ban era carbine fixed stocks that are exceptions to the rule in that they use rifle parts, but you don't have to worry about those |
