Know what, just got a Colt Model 723 upper clone (or smilar). The hand guards are the plastic ones, but they are 6 1/2 inches long I think.

Really short!

My midlength (9 inches) feels great though.

I guess I can see why you want the 10 inches.

UPDATE: Still waiting on a few parts... Magpul still needs to send me the CR123 core for the MOE grip. I've got a titanium firing pin from Bushmaster on order. And I am still waiting on a DPMS lower (I admit, it is slightly customized) to arrive at my local gun store.

I have both the front and rear Magpul MBUS sights. I have the Magpul MOE grip, and the Magpul ASAP sling plate and MS2 sling. I bought a UTG tactical flashlight with a mount and momentary switch, and the unimax green laser in on order (I told you I was not going to be able to wait.).

I have 10 loaded Maglevel PMAG's with Magpul's on them sitting here waiting for the first range day...

Just a few more parts, and I am DONE.

I really hate waiting for backordered parts.

I have a story about Skater's M4 that is nuts but I am not sure if we can still go to jail for it.

Marshall, you shoot skeet with a rifle? I assumed you were good but...

You know... I'm not liking the red dot sight I have on this one... I think I am going to get one of those new mini red dot or mini reflex sights.

Ok, just ordered an Aimpoint Micro T-1 with a QD riser mount (Larue Tactical LT-660).

I think this will fit much better on the limited real estate up top.

I hope my stuff isn't all backordered. I just placed an order yesterday for an upper kit for a 5.56/.223 AR-15 (I already have the stripped lower). Not all the fancy bells and whistles you listed since it's my first.

16" chrome lined barrel, 6 position stock, and the rest is standard A2 stuff plus two 30 round mags that should be fun to fill when I can afford the ammo...lol!

Well, after a long time gathering the right parts... Here it is after final assembly, and with a "special addition" that I won't actually attach in public.

And a little something that I won't go into detail about...










There are a couple of things left that I may do, including changing of the flash suppressor to a Noveske KX3, but maybe in the fall. She's pretty sweet the way she is right now...

-Skater

man that looks sweet! I wish I had the money for all my interests...I would definitely be buying/modifying some guns!

That is one AWESOME peice of kit Skater!

But I still want my FN FAL when I get stateside
