So I am planning to build a M4A1 with this configuration and I need expert's advices. -80% forged receiver -Colt M16 fire control parts -Bushmaster bolt & bolt carrier -Bushmaster M4 14,5" barrel -Upper receiver A3 type...Bushmaster, Oly, CMMG or Armalite ? -RRA 6 positions telestock -for the forward assist, round or teardrop ? I believe the round type is the current US Military issue. -Bushmaster removable carrying handle -7x USGI 30 rounds magazine. Why select fire ? it isn't more expensive than a semi auto and...it is the same licence. |

Gabriel, Do you have everything you need to complete the 80% forging? I know your import laws are different, so I am wondering if it wouldn't be easier to get a finished lower and mill the select fire portion out instead... I would go with a Colt Bolt, as it is probably the best available. Most A3 uppers are all the same, any differences are mainly in the color/ shade of the anodizing. The round FA is what is used mainly, as the tear drop catches on things when held against your body. You might want to consider a backup iron sight instead of the Carry Handle if you plan on getting an optic later on. Here is a picture of my duty carbine(s), I think it is close to what you were going for.   Here is a picture of |
