AR Rifle pic thread

Sorry to bug you again about this:
Do you remember which A2 spacer you used?
One is a DPMS, and they haven’t been produced in years. The other came from Al’s Custom, and I cant find them on the website anymore. I do have an extra though. Shoot me a pm if you’re interested. I had a really hard time finding one for the last build.

Thanks man. I am going to do some practice with the A1 length. If it ends up feeling short, I'll contact you. Thanks again!
 
Here's my latest "parts" build. After reading such great things about the ALG rails from @NKD and others, I decided I wanted to try one out. A guy on ARFCOM had a 14.5" Daniel Defense CHF barrel setup with ALG barrel nut and rail, plus pinned KAC Fh for a heckuva price. Bought it and an Aero Upper, plus a used 13" ALG MLOK rail to build. I had a spare BCM BCG and CH I threw in it. Then I took an extra Aero lower I had built out and threw one of the discounted BCM intermediate buffer systems (same as Vltor A5) on it. Overall very happy. Right now I just have some extra irons (LMT front, Troy rear I just got from @K Rich) on it, but I may try to find a good 1-4 that's super light and a Aero 30MM mount. Either that or maybe one of the Holoson reddots.

My "Mini Recce" MK18. Thinking about RIT dying the foliage stuff (that was way too good of a deal to pass up) either black or to match the HG... I can't leave anything alone.

Brownells 605 upper, on a Bushmaster XM-177 lower (temporarily), these uppers are BEAUTIFUL
I think that is what is called a "Dissipator"? Rifle cut down to 16".

I've got an original A1 stripped upper similar to that, one day I will get around to building it out.

Much later it was labeled a "Dissipator" , when Colt made this model it was considered a carbine, barrel length is 15.5 inches with a permanently attached three prong flash hider, and a rifle length gas system, as with the Colt original

I don't know as much as I should about the M16 history, but I thought the original carbines had the FSB moved back, with a shorter hand guard.

The XM-177 and the later Air Force GAU models were exactly that, this model was never adopted
 
All depends on your point of view
And what point of view would say this is the right thread.

It’s either an AR pistol (most likely), and there’s a dedicated AR Pistol pics thread. Or it’s an SBR and there’s a dedicated NFA pic thread. :p

Like I said, depends on your specific point of view, I posted a picture of my Commando pistol here and didn't get any kind of shit over it.........P.O.V.............

BRB...gotta go find a pic that needs to be moved. :p
 
No pics yet, but I scored a pre-ban Colt Target model, has the sear block, lug-less front sight base, two headed screw type front take down pin, and A2 compensator.

It's a former range rental rifle, and it shows, but a Colt......is a Colt
 
Dpms full auto co2 powered BB gun adjustable handstop and flip up sights.
