Let's see those builds!
I'll kick it off. I thought It'd be fun to redo one of My old carbines- as historically accurate as possible to a real US Army M4A1 MWS/SOPMOD clone: * All RRA M4gery parts and components. RRA Later M4A1 type stock-would've preferred a Colt CAR stock. 16" 1/9 CL bbl w/slipover FFH for a 14.5" look- will eventually chop to 14.7" and add a A2 birdcage. For accuracy's sake,: *Aimpoint M68 CCO (NSN-1240-01-439-7265) *Aimpoint QRP with Riser-(NSN-1240-01-439-7265) Matech 600 Mt. BUIS-(NSN-1005-01-484-8000)-would've rather had a Knight's 300 mt. KAC RAS-(NSN-1005-01-452-3527) KAC Panels-(PN: 95047) KAC Vert grip-(NSN-1005-01-416-1091) Colt side sling swivel lottsa 550 Cord/90 MPH Tape Basic Carbine:   With a Classic Surefire 660 Weapon's light(NSN-6230-01-527-5765)+ A19 9V extension/P90 bulb upgrade and a KAC mount:  With Surefire M962 9V Weapon light(NSN-6230-01-528-2989):    |

 Let's assume the soldier or Marine didn't like the KAC VFG, couldn't get a Matech and had his mom send him a Surefire 9P.  I don't happen to know the NSN for the EOTECH |

Well, I'm not a Soldier or Marine(build for historical accuracy), I feel that the KAC grip is not the best option(Tango Down), don't really like the Matech either, and I have no problem converting 6/9Ps to weapons lights...........So Your good to go.  C'mon, I know a lot of You have M4/A4 clones..........especially EKIE(inspired My Army M4 build). Post 'em.

Here is my M4gery SOPMOD clone in progress.
  Business end......  Obviously, the Harris bi-pod isn't actually part of the SOPMOD program. I still have a few changes scheduled for it. From MSTN, I'm getting an LMT SOPMOD stock and a KAC 300m buis. The Matech and bi-pod are going to go on my 20" M16A4 clone that I'm working on. I'm debating on selling the COMP M and replacing it with the Eotech 553. I also plan on replacing the charging handle with the PRI gas buster, adding the extractor O-ring, KAC ambi-selector to name a few. I have ways to go needless to say. I will comeback and add A4 pictures as that project develops. |

I think I came pretty close to duplicating the M4 I carried in Iraq. No burst and it's not a Colt (Bushy lower, CMMG 14.7 upper), but other than that it's pretty much the same. The rail system is a Midwest Ind. though, not KAC.

Nice carbines. I hope this thread keeps going.
The one on the right is my Dad's M4gery and I just realized, I don't have any good pics of it. I'll have to get some. |

im gathering parts up now to do a clone of a standard issue M4 right now. pretty much just need a lower. actually i have several builds that just need a lower. im waiting on the aimpoint M2 to come in the mail. i have debated on doing the current issue or the early issue with the older car stock. i have the parts to do either, well id need a comp m then to do that one, so i guess ill do the current issue.

I'd first and foremost would like to thank those contributers that Served or are currently in Service. All Very Nice Carbines, Fellas. Notable Mention/Accuracy points go to: Gul Du Cal Sgt. Sauer AJBello AZar(...even though it's a Real R0977!) Quib Pirate EC ........but some of You guys are "Cheating" with You're "Beyond Standard Issue" setups!  Some of the Real Deal for good measure(also for those looking to assemble an accurate clone:    Mine just for comparison: That's one beat up EoTech:  Let's keep this one Going!

That EOTech looks like the glass is broken. It's still supposed to work, according to EOTech's ads. |

One question - What is the standard issue rear BUIS for those flattops M4's?
|
|
|
|
Posted: 9/27/2006 7:57:15 AM EST
[#28]
The main BUIS's that I have seen are the Matech BUIS.
But I have also seen KAC 300 meter, 600 meter sights along with ARMS 40 and 40L's. The KAC and ARMS items are more prolific in the SOCOM community as a result of those items being issue in the M4 SOPMOD kits. |

Hey Ekie, Could you list the number of panels you have on your M5 and how many ribs they have? Appreciate it. Also, I don't know if you noticed, but one of your carbines is missing a trigger...

 I'm swapping the upper with a buddy who wants a heavy barrel for an M4 contour one in 1x7 twist. Its a High Standard Lower with a Del-Ton upper, KAC M4 RAS, Aimpoint M2, MaTech BUIS and Mamba 3-pt sling, as close to the real thing as CA laws will permit me to have. |

Matechs are what we were issued for OIF II. The replacements we were issued though (several Matechs broke) were the GGG A2 BUIS. |

Correct. The KAC M4 RAS/RIS and M5(M16A4) are 2 piece clamshell, non-freefloat.  More from the Army M4s:

Lemme' guess, brocken locking plates form being over-torqued, and stripped screws. Both causing the sight to, well basically fall off under fire or not. The GG&G seems to be the more rugged of the two+ having duel apetures. Nice pics, Man.  |

It's the carbine I would like to carry on duty. My chief won't allow us to carry personal carbines on duty. The department only has two carbines that are already issued.    It's an A.R.M.S. #22M68 mounted on a Knights RAS II. |
