Well, much to the dismay of my wife, Here it is.

Image

This was as soon as I got it al put together and functions checked... Built on a DPMS lower, Magpul CTR stock and TangoDown battle grip. Bought the kit from M & A Parts. These folks are great to work with and offer a Law Enforcement discount. That's great for a fantastic cheapo like me... Not sure of the manufacturers, but its a 16" stainless 1/8 fluted barrel. and the upper has a marking that almost looks like the State of Missouri flipped upside down above the forward assist. (Any input here???) This was my first pic, and there have been some changes already.

Image

Viola!! Added an ARMS 40L flip up, an NCStar holo sight ( I really want to go with eoTech, but I'm cheap and as I said before, it's a fun gun, not an operator piece...) and a generic single point sling.

I ordered my free float YHM tube from Tim and it should be here today... Ill post pics of it all installed and ready to play as soon as I get it all together...

Oh, yeah... It shoots too. Had it out to the range before I installed the flip up and was just using the red dot. 15" steel plate at 200m. Offhand. Nice......

Thanks for looking and check back!! Look forward to hearing form all of you!!

Drew

OK,

The parts came in right on time as Tim predicted... (He must be psychic or something....) Went on with no problems. Getting that FSB off is a BI%&# !!! Anyway, all's well and put together. All I need now is a new front sight.

Image

I LIKE IT!!!!

Tim,
Ill be in touch for an end cap a couple rails and a front flip up. Talk to you all soon!!!

Drew
