My 6520 is my fav.  It's my house fire gun.
Something clever belongs here.

Some good looking rifles in this thread.  I need a 6.8 spc carry handle upper.  I should stop delaying and order the RRA a2 upper with fsb barrel.

Mogadishu Redux. Cut down an Armalite fiberglass tube to carbine length years ago, still haven't gotten around to reattching the end cap.

I've run it with ACOG, Aimpoint T1 (on dedicated mount and pic mount), but wasn't happy enough to keep it that way. Might try out an Aimpoint PRO on A.R.M.S. #16 carry handle mount. I have a #22m68 but it's bulky as hell on a carry handle pic rail.

Man this is epic. Did you end up completing the build?

Finally settled on a different handguard for my 300blk Kitty-Kat.
The best thing about this gun is I feel like I can abuse it like an issued weapon and not feel bad.

Almost. Lower is done up with a Redi-Mod and Bushmaster aluminum CAR, I have a rail on the carry handle but I'm just not coming up with anything optic-wise that I'm psyched about, so it's irons for the time being. Still need to reattach the end cap from when I chopped the Armalite tube.

Had this TA44 on the EE for quite some time and couldn’t move it, so I ended up buying a C7A1 upper and making a modern carry handle build.

My Black Hawk Down inspired Carbine build.  I find it quite nice to use my Aimpoint 9000SC on top of my carry handle.

605. I put together what I call a Product Improved model if the Army had built a modern version.

stripped the goofy cel shade paint job.   Receivers painted rustoleum chalked charcoal,  stock and handguard satin black.  Swapped the optic for a vintage pro point.

With F1 filing the way it is now, I'm debating cutting the barrel on the 177 to what it should be and putting together a slick 177E1.

The CH rail is a Smith Ent and the RDS is a Romeo5 Gen 1 on a low mount from a Gen 2.

This is one of my favorites.  It's a prototype inspired carbine build.  Numerous parts were machined by yours truly, including the raw lower forging.  I finally got a chance to shoot it last weekend and it ran flawlessly.

Thank you for the compliments!  Your builds are the gold standard... I have to find that refinishing tutorial thread you made a little while ago.
