I just talked to a gunsmith in Montana. He gave me some info/advice I was not expecting to hear...
I am looking or an A2 carry handle to go on a Rock River Arms A3 flat top. What he said is that the best thing is to use a Rock River carry handle to avoid any fitting/modification that may be needed to make, say, a Bushmaster, or DPMS handle fit correctly.
This is a surprise to me s I thought that the AR platform as a whole was pretty much modular. An A2 handle should be, for all intents and purposes the same from all makers shouldn't they?
What kind of fitting would he be talking about?
TIA
