Found a nib Kac MRE for $250 and then found a colt 6920 upper for $450 with a magpul pro rear sight so now I have this. Need to decide on an optic and find a lower for it.

Tried posting this earlier in the thread but I have trouble with uploading to Imgur and the picture was tiny and blurry. This is mine. Super budget PSA build but it has the knights rail from my time in Iraq and Afghanistan and my ARMS back up iron sight plus my parade sling. My three point sling is on my scar I just posted in the deer hunting November thread. Other than that nothing special. But my stuff was personally purchased until it was issued so I got to keep it.
Kind of an odd contrast between a scar and a PSA but I sold almost all my guns so I could move to some acreage and out of the city so when I finally moved I had the budget to start buying guns again I blew it all on the SCAR because I had one before in my collection and loved it. Still trying to financially recove because I’m a poor. Haha |

I been quiet for a bit.....just made an 18" dmr style from a rifle length FN CL button barrel off of PArms on sale, and the rest was spare parts. I think the gas block was touching the rail on deflection and whip. Didnt realize how close it was at first. .... so far its doing moa. Massaged the rail and going back out today. Urx 3.1 dont have a lottta room.
If i can have it do sub moa with 55gr and my Brit262 75otm ill be using it as my main budget cloney feeling setup for out to about 1k. Will be painted as well. Its handy tho:   |
