Quote HistorySo I guess I thought this was just a cut down regular upper. I don’t get the significance of the rail and why the price? Can you not mount an m203 on a normal Ris II by removing the bottom rail ? I was kinda wanting one for my m203.

The GL/SSC is made for the shortest set up you can mount an M203 on, and it can also clear a can with that set up (w/ 12.5" bbl). Originally Posted By BNW:

M9 on the backstrap so its visible in the rack. dont forget that god damn 550 cord on the CCO/ACOG lol. also, if needed, ive used the green at wal mart in the arts and crafts secrion. its light as well. |

Thanks for all the good responses!
There are so many excellent builds here I'm just glad to be able to join in. Keep the pics comin.
@dontburyme- the ard/killflash arrived in no time, but no lfu.  I did find one seller that definitely includes the Lfu though. I emailed the seller of the one I got to ask why it is advertised and pictured as having an lfu, but it wasn't in the package that I received.

Never been much a fan of a fixed rear with a red dot sight personally. But a fixed front with a red dot has never bothered me. May just be because that's what I'm used to
