I'm not sure if i like the glossy hand guards but i'll run with them for a while. I know it's not 100% correct by a long shot, but close enough for me
  Ok guys... I put another upper on her and here she is  |

Yes looks good. I think the glossy handguards are essential to the look

I'm okay with it. Brass deflector brings it down a little, but overall. Nice

Looks good!
Snag a 603 upper when you can, and do something about that pistol grip. . . |

Nice looking carbine. You're sporting more of a 629 look vs a 610/XM177 look however. Ditch that A2 grip and grind off that brass deflector and she's 629 all the way.........minus the 3rd hole.
 Again.......nice looking carbine!!

Nice effort, though I'd remove the XM type moderator and just go with an A1 or A2 flash hider and make a nice 723
commando out of it ~ you got the stamp, make the barrel short! :) |

This is true. One part change = 723.
Then you have a leftover moderator, which is the seed for a totally new project!

If I did an SBR it would be either a 733 or a fixed stock E1.
