Let’s see your retro AR’s

[bfiles]

I've always liked the retro look. I have a few that aren't really clones... modern in function, but retro in style...

C8 upper on Colt Canada lower






Green Brownells retro furniture on a Colt Canada SA20






Brown Brownells retro furniture - this setup is a placeholder for my Maccabee rifle, when I get it. Everything here is going to be donated to the Maccabee except the lower parts, as I have another parts kit waiting.





And an SA20 "C7A1"

The green retro set I've been waiting for in backorder for a bit now. Can't wait for them to ship me my set.
Gonna have the same set up as your retro brown one but in green.

Please do me a favour and snap a pic of the green set with the A2 carry handle mounted for me please to give me the idea on what mine will look like when finished!!!

Just saw this - photos aren't possible, as the green parts are on their way to you!

I’m not a stickler for 100% accuracy in trying to reproduce a retro firearm,at least in ARs. Being in Canada makes it even more difficult to source parts and complete projects . Who sells colt pencil barrels these days? Or where to get the proper dust cover? Just get a theme and go with it. I’d love to have it perfect but you have to take it out sooner or later after all. It could be a life long endeavour! Lol. It’s all about the feel and how it aims anyway . Nice and light, agile.
Cheers

Stripped lower arrived to put the finishing touches on my C8 clone.
