What about getting a XM607 replica that doesn't suppress?

I'd rather bastardize the build with slightly inaccurate, yet genuine Colt parts, rather than use replica stuff... Silly? Probably...

 

[randyhub]

Agreed if you can find the parts even then shipping to Canada is even tougher, don't even know what Colt is anymore these days.

Easy . The hard part is finding a tear drop

So I think I am going to find one and swap out my round one for a tear drop just to be different?

Thanks

Guy has them on the EE right now.

Sorry, not all retro stuff. This is my Colts though. Is it OK that they are against a wall and not on the carpet?

 

[randyhub]

Thanks I need now is an 8 track and a Levi Gremlin with a 304!

I guess I should have rephrase that to "it's hard to find a tear drop for a realistic price"

I should call you Gunny from Heartbreak Ridge!

Opps, forgot this one. Just finished. Sorry not the best pics. 630ish build on a Canadian made Colt AR-15 A2 lower.

 

[randyhub]

Nice CAR 15! I am just waiting for my 6 hole skinny handguards and tear drop forward assist then I will post my build. Mine has the metal sliding stock those seem to be in demand now.

Thanks
Randy

 

[CeeJay]

[randyhub]

Nice, how many came with the ring in the pistol grip?

 

[Gryphon Energetics]

I'll play. I love older ARs!

Colt R6450 9mm Carbine with RRA 10.5" barrel (have the original 16" as well)
Colt R6551 Sporter Target, full A2 configuration without sear block (a rare bird indeed!)

Sorry for the cell phone pics, working on an SLR.

It's easy.
Simple as drifting a single pin out.
Push in new forward assist and drift in said pin again.

They are hard to find though but they are around. E-bay is your friend on small parts like that sometimes.
