I updated my XM177E2 to be more correct. Barrel replacement to a pencil type and a modulator. Short of getting a stamp and cutting the barrel, it's as good as I am going to get. At this point the forge code CH upper is the missing piece. I do have a no code upper, but it is not Colt. I'm not sure that is not a better choice for this XM177E2 clone... As always I'm open to suggestions.
Here is the archived link to the first attempt at this model. http://www.ar15.com/archive/topic.html?b=3&f=123&t=651080 Please forgive my attempts at some photo background. I'm struggling with the picture taking part...

That looks like one of those one piece 5.5 moderators. If so you can get the barrel cut and pinned at 11.5. Doesn't look bad though.
I see you are not cutting the barrel. You do not need a stamp for a 11.5" with a pinned 5.5" moderator if that is what that is......what length is that? |

The barrel looks to be around 13" or so. Looks longer then the usual 12.5-12.75 + Brick/ring. |
