 Attached FileI used to have a A2, then a collapsible and now a C1 stock with this BCM HF upper. This is honestly the one gun regardless of stock used on it I would not get rid of. Just cleaned up the lower and installed a ALG QMS. It’s a bit portly but it works. Need a Surefire scout and a smaller laser. |

Quote HistoryIt’s probably just me, but your rifle has a post apocalyptic look to it. I like it. I think it’s the combination of the paint & handguard… did you chop it? |

18 inch faxon gunner, ALG 25 dollar handguard, DD 1.5 front sight, Ruger Birdcage, USMC Bayo, Chopped .625 Bushmaster gas block was 7 bucks, 25 dollar A1 type D stock, ALG Trigger, Geiselle Super 42, Cotton M1 Garand Sling, Krylon, Aim nickle Boron Bolt. This is my best shooting rifle by far and probably cheapest Thanks . I tried to follow the modern WWSD . Its the same weight as an M16A1 . Im thinking of getting a non forward assist and lighweight BCG but the rifle is reliable as is. I think 6.5 pound loaded and very very accurate to 300

Here's the new upper, still waiting on KE parts, particularly their safety. Using my highly scientific weight measuring method, aka standing on a scale with and without the rifle, the new upper on the old (completed) lower weighs 5.8 pounds with the DD sights and a sling.

If there is, please direct me there. If there isn't, let's start one. This is the first rifle I've put together in that configuration. I tried a few new (to me) things, the most obvious being the mating of a 16 inch barreled upper with a fixed stock A2 lower. I'm lovin' it. First time I've used a RDS mounted any higher than a lower 1/3 co-witness. The slight increase in height is perfect for this rifle and helps alleviate the annoying A2 stock GONNNGGG!!! felt with every shot fired. And it is mounted to a bombproof fixed A2 sight/riser. First time I've ever rattle canned one of my rifles. I'm diggin' it. First time I have ever put FDE furniture on an ODG rifle. I've wanted to ever since I saw some old HK 416s issued that way. Looked a little weird to me at first, but it has definitely grown on me. I think I'll call the color scheme 416 camo  First time I have ever mounted a light that wasn't originally made to be mounted on a weapon. (1,000 Lumen Surefire P3X Fury in a basic GG&G mount) It's a little long, but fits perfectly on this pig. Damn sure on the hefty side, but I think it's pretty groovy overall. https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/317025/265D3387-8F52-4FC2-BB7C-A32D3F6E5A58_jpe-2311314.JPGhttps://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/317025/52AC2000-CD63-4E3D-B483-24ADE3393445_jpe-2311315.JPG @Vehemence |

While not a A1 or A2, still a fixed stock. RRA Entry stock with A2 buttplate. I have removed it in lieu of a CAR setup, but I liked it enough it's still on my parts box for a future build.

A quick and sloppy rattle can camo job would look great and IMO would be better than the self-adhesive wrap. |

The upper is a parts bin mutt hence the odds and ends like an A2X flash hider and flat slip ring. Had the scope, barrel, and handguards on hand and filled in the rest. All factory FDE parts but has more variation in person. Fun little project Aforementioned lightweight  Also helped a buddy put together an 18” coyote gun with a KE lower
