I first posted in October, and although I've found time to type and post, it is only recently that I've been able to followup on this project.
I have an A4 upper with a Colt Gov't. A2 barrel needing installation.
I have an M16A1 upper with the proper barrel, also needing installation. (I'm still short a gas tube, bolt carrier, and charging handle, so I won't be shooting it same day, but can install the tube myself).
I don't have anything to attach my vise to and lack the tools to torque the barrels properly - no vise insert/blocks or wrench. Never done it before.
I am planning on running out to NRA in Fairfax Saturday AM to run a carbine and 1911; it'd be nice to get my A4 running.
To complicate matters, the A4:
1) Has a MATECH rear sight installed, and
2) I may be short the gas tube roll pin.
Other than that, it's ready to run, and I'm eager to test some Wolf/Prvi Partizan M193; you're welcome to help ;)
I live in Alexandria, work in Fairfax.
Can anyone assist?
