Well, I finally got a new upper and it's all put together.  

Kept things simple... it'll have a phantom when I get a crush washer.

Pre-ban Bushmaster lower, YHM flip up BUIS, nothing very fancy... but it's mine.





Grouping from today... gun's 2nd time to the range.   50 yard with iron sights.

Congratulations on a nice build. Makes it all the more worthwhile since you're living in a "ban state".

Thanks... and being in a ban state makes it THAT much more satisfying

*bangs head on table*


Watch out for all the usual suspects:

Sending the detent spring across the room
Sending the buffer tube retaining pin into the light bulb
Screwing the buffer tube in too far...
*cough* I'm an idiot.


I didn't actually put the lower parts kit in, so I can't give you any advice on that part.

It's a gun show impulse buy since an Arfcom dealer lost my backorder.  (He's a great guy, just an "oops")

I have my reasons for believing that it is a Del-Ton... When I whip the handguards off I may get a better idea of who made it.  No markings ahead of the FSB but the upper is a Wilson.


Minimal forge marks... just an M above where the gas tube sticks into the upper.

Nice job!  

I like to see more pre-bans in our "commie" state.

BUCC_Guy very nice carbine.    

Like paigecm1 said, "simple is in this summer".  

Now you have to shoot the hell out of your new toy.

Three range trips in 5 days

Except I haven't been bringing friends/new kids to teach (which is all I do here).  I've been taking my sweet ass time and working on marksmanship... and I LOVE this carbine.

I spent two hours at the range on monday... fired 20 shots.  This thing is my baby...

That carbine should last forever.    

Take care of your baby and your baby will take care of you.  Sounds like your spoiling her.  That’s OK.  Spoil her all you want.
