This is a RECON build for a goverment agency that must remain nameless. You can most likely guess where it is headed from the cammo job
SPEC'S GTS/DENNYS GUNS RECON 1:7 M4 cut barrel Midlength Gas System CMT M4 cut upper Colt M16 Bolt and carrier, up graded (upper had to be full auto capable) LaRue 13.2 Rail System LaRue Gas Block Standard Charging handle Phantom 5C2 Flash hider Troy front and rear BUIS Tango Down Rail Covers painted to match Finish is DuraCoat The end user promises this upper will see hard use and will report back in a few months with how the upper performed and action pics.

Sweet, Denny.
 I like how you preserved the address numbers. The inset black adds to the camo effect.

Why the M4 cuts on a barrel when you have the free float tube on?

Denny, what is the length of the the barrel? I didn't see in your post. Is that a new kind of desert camo? I have never have seen red in desert camo before.

they are 16" and i think the lighting on the paint is making it look red but to me its a brown |

Not everything is going to the desert. My suspicion is DEA and the location is somewhere far south ouf our border, not to the east.

Sweet... Did he happen to mention what he plans on using for optics?
Anybody know if DD is planing on coming out with a 13.2" rail? |
|

Posted: 7/28/2005 7:49:34 AM EDT

Why stop at 13.2"???? Why not just go for the whole barrel!!!! I say DD 15.0!!!!

Its a very nice suttle touch not painting in between the rails where you can see the numbers still.
I like it. |

Very Nice! I like the Camo
I would Love to have a complete upper built ( same specs as in picture )But with a Mike Rock Chrome lined barrel Maybe a Pac-Nor CM barrel would do ! |

Knowing the mission I would say optics would be whatever they want/need including thermal. Denny |

I always do that. I learned years ago you do not want paint build up on equipment or optic attachment points. Denny |

It is desert stone brown. Photoing this cammo is tough as it changes with the light. The upper is much lighter in color than it appears under artificial light. In sun light it is much lighter but I don't have an opportunity to photo it again as it is on its way to go to work. BTW the Wylde chamber functions fine in full auto mode. Denny |

That was part of the spec. I am not just teasing here. There isn't going to be an answer even if someone guesses correctly. Denny |

The barrel is our 16" Recon. I didn't weigh this. Most of these uppers go around 4.5 to 5lbs with rail, sights, FH, Bolt and carrier and charging handle. Denny |

This upper is not typical due to the cost of the Colt M16 bolt carrier group. But with paint and everything this upper cost $1575. Generally uppers do not cost that much but with Troy front and rear buis, 13.2" LaRue rail, Colt BCG and a lot of paint work it got right up there. Best to call for a specific quote. I am not really comfortable with generalities. Denny |

Do you carry Colt M16 BCG's?
