Hell, that's exactly what I was issued in 1986.WeldonHunter wrote:I really like the look of that one Lee. I've seen a few places that have the demilled Colt Military parts kits http://www.royaltigerimports.com/product-p/ar150011.htm but they tend to be expensive and most claim to have some cracked or broken furniture. Royal Tiger Imports is one place but they also have these now. http://www.royaltigerimports.com/produc ... er0015.htm If I ever get one I want it to look like this or as close to military. I just really like that Vietnam era look. It's from when I was a kid.

Murphy was an optimist.
A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an
invasion, butcher a hog, design a building, conn a ship, write a
sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the
dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve an
equation, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a
computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly.

I too like the 20 inch ones. This one has a FN M16 barrel, an Olympic arms upper receiver, and the rest is DPMS.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Makes that a very eclectic setup. Worldly I might add. I might know where you can get some Carl Gustav SS109 ammo for it make the sling feel at home.millman wrote:Thanks.

Re: A2 20" upper?
It's actually a bit higher than other M855/SS109 but if you must have Swedish ammo for your AR here's some. http://gun-deals.com/displaydeal.php?dealid=27469 It's not 6.5x55 though. There was a lot of this around over the last year but it wasn't super popular because it's berdan primed. The M855/SS109 from other places is a lot cheaper now though since the ATF has backed off. Still not back to where it was, which was high anyway.millman wrote:You are the ammo guy. I was hoping you could tell me.

Look in to Green Mountain Barrel Company for an A2 barrel. They make great barrels and they are not expensive. http://www.gmriflebarrel.com/
