Post subject:  Since I've been away...........**UPDATE**

I've been working on putting together some AR's

First one I had a Stag lower laying around for a few years (from the last group
buy) and I finally had the $ from selling one of my M1's to get an upper for it.
Got a light weight profile DD 16" midlength to complete my fun 'plinker'. Of course
not content to leave well enough alone I had to break out my rattle cans of krylon
camo paint :P Lucked into the deal of the century on an AR 332 scope, which
sits atop (haven't had the nerve to shoot it with the paint yet).

The other was a $65 lower that a local bought from me. He didn't like the roll
marks and returned it to me about 2 days before the whole CT psycho shooter
pulled his stunt. I had a LPK around and slapped it together. Since the pic I
managed to get a used CTR stock in FDE & 6 position milspec buffer tube with
a T2 heavy buffer. I have a 24" hvy varmint upper that I am going to sell off the
barrel & bolt to fund a custom 18" poly-rifled 6 X 45 barrel. I will complete it out
as an SPR clone but in the popular wildcat calibre. Make it a REAL 500-600m rifle.

Then just to keep things interesting I picked up a beautiful M16A1 kit from
McKay's and will have to get a Nodak A1 retro lower and a pencil barrel to
complete this one out. (not my pic but the one I got is in beautiful shape)

It's not the slick side but has the the tear-drop forward assist. No Brunton bump though so I still may catch some hot brass in the face being as I shoot lefty.

Image

Word is these were A1's sitting in an Israeli warehouse for years on end. Century
went over & disassembled them, left the barrels, lowers & auto sear, and shipped
them in.

I also got ahold of some C7's and can use these down the road. These do have the Brunton Bump to save me the 'burn' :bigrin: . Fortunately I can use regular A2 lowers on these and still be correct.

Image


Seems now I have enough to keep me busy & broke for a while yet!!!!

I really hated to part with my M1 but it sure got me lots of crap to tinker with

Had recieved a pencil barrel with a bit of a twist. It is an H&R made barrel but has been converted to 6 X 45 cal. Not sure if this was a commercial conversion or one of the barrels that was converted for the USAF for trials back in the early 70's (yes the 'poodle puncher' debate was explored by the military)

Image

Well last night I assembled the upper and threw it together on my Bushy lower. I have put in an order with Nodak for a couple of retro lowers, but the wait is a long one. So here it is on the Bushy....

For the REAL retro look, you need a 3 prong flash hider! ;) SW

Post subject:  Re: Since I've been away...........**UPDATE**

But that wouldn't be right on an A1. This one is the 'cage' but not the current A2 closed bottom cage.

I do have a slick-side 604 upper with a nice set of Mottled/shiny hand guards and type D stock......and yes a 3 prong for that one. That's the next project, right after I finish my C7 clone (which is almost complete)

Post subject:  Re: Since I've been away...........**UPDATE**

yup , that cage is correct on the 67-69 A1s , the earlier XM16s had the duckbill/3-prong units , im really liking that build even if it does have a bushmaster lower ;)

this is what i built up with a DPMS lower , id like to one day get a NODAK SPUD LOWER
