I have three Colt comp hbars (pre ban) and I would like to convert one to look like a M4 style rifle. and I have a few questions, (1) besides the barrel ,hand guards and gas tube are their any other specific parts i will need or do I reuse the rest of the parts from the hbar? (2) I'm considering using a Bushmaster or RRA barrel , i would like to use a 14.5" with a perm installed f/s , any problems using these brands with my Colt host rifle and are either one of their finnishes simular to the colts? (3)my shooting is just for fun, plincking i'd guess you'ld say, what are their differances in using a 1/7 or a 1/9 twist barrels? (4) i have a dpms armores wrench and i guess i need a actionn clamp? any other things i need to know or get to do this swap? Thank You, Brian |
| Thanks eklikwhoa yes i have the upper , im using my colt recievers , I'm not planning on using my front sight I'm planning on buying a barrel with a front sight and flash suppresor all ready installed, i was more wondering about delta rings gas tube etc, various roll pins etc, i have never taken one apart so i really dont know what other parts might be involved. |
Check the EE. There are good deals on bbls all the time there. If I were you I'de look for a Bushy or CMMG w/ 1 in 7 twist. Well lookie here you go ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=7&f=22&t=270312 Every part you need

Hey yellowv that is the barrel combo im looking at , ive emailed scott and posetd a reply as to the availabillity of the barrel , I havnt got a response yet, im assuming hes away at a show or some thing. oh and cjk1 I'm new here so maybe I'm not calling the tool by the correct name? I'm talking about the blocks that go aroung the upper receiver to put it in a vice? this is what i need right? thanks every one, |
