Anyone else pick up their Colt Canada stripped lower yet?

Holy, that's huge difference in colour without oil

Totally. That grey almost looks like the old Colt grey.

Anyone know a source for a look alike Diemaco ambi safety?

Took them off my SA.

Took them off my SA.

For those of us leaving our SA intact, that doesn't really help. Unless I missed your EE ad.

I thought SA's were parts guns... lol... I did keep 1 intact tho !!!!

Im thinking of parting out a 4th SA to get myself a Barrel for my Modern Hunter.

Barrel for your Modern Hunter??? That's a AR10 scaled platform.

I thought it was standard Ar barrels... FML... That 20inch Colt barrel would of been great...

It is.

Standard AR10.

The Modern Varminter will be AR15 scaled.

Building a clone for every model. There is no ambi safety on a C7A1.

I'd love to get one if you got an extra one. Send me a pm if you do. The iur needs one but the LMG does not.

What are you guys doing for LPK for your IUR/CC lower builds? Trying to find a Colt kit in Canada but it is not easy. Tempted to just go Daniel Defense or DPMS. Does it really matter?

 

[DILLIGAF]

Just buy Colt USA stuff, They probably are the same anyways..

Purists will scoff at you, but it really doesn't matter.

Colt USA parts kits would be just fine. At least you could say it is all colt. I hope they release diemaco buffer tubes. Pretty unique item given it has no visible threads once installed.

They probably will, now that I've ordered another brand.

Always a market for used parts. If they do you can always sell the old one.

Or buy the rest of the parts to make the old buffer tube a full lower haha.

I had already purchased a complete DPMS lower when Colt released these lowers. Now I may be 'forced' to build another rifle on the DPMS lower. Don't know what I'd do with it though, as I already have another Colt AR that I never (rarely) shoot. Oh well, I hear one can get rich selling items at inflated prices on EE.
