That turned out great! Hope mine comes out that well.
Has there been a determination of what style f/a is correct for a c7 Gordy upper? Tear drop, standard or big button? |

This is what I got back from Vegas Metal Refinishing. I asked for Colt Grey, it looks more like that medium grey, some call pre-ban grey. Anyway, I am happy with it, kinda looks like it should be that way with the attached xm grey C7 upper.
Biggest thing is that they got that media out of the engraving! Attached File Attached File |

And got my barrel back from ADCO. Went with a 14.5 pencil. My AE M4 in is still in jail, went and visited it.

@ -FLEET-
Can you share where you got your 203 front mount? I am searching for the whole kit for my 203 and cant find sh!t. Right now Im stuck with the KAC QD. Which is fine so I can move it around but still want the mount you have. |
