I've been following the thread for several years and it inspired me to build up a B2 as I was PCS'ing out of CA and back to much more firearm freedoms. However, I told myself I wouldn't post until I made it all the way through the thread. So, finally... It will never be 100% correct, but it's close enough for me, given I shoot it (and all of my clones) regularly. More pics as it progressed through the last 3 years of use...

So my DD M4A1 should be in any day.
I have the: B5 SOPMOD stock Colt A2 grip Matech rear sight DD QD mount Aimpoint micro Larue LT660 mount Now I just need the KAC 90551 taupe. I found a website that has them in stock. Now I just gotta drop the $190. Man this isn't cheap. I want a warcomp but it'll have to get put on the back burner until i get a scope mount for my BCM recce and a KAC RAS for my block 1/1.5 build Edit: ordered the 99051 taupe If any one is interested there's one left at rifle gear http://www.riflegear.com/p-6096-knights-armament-mk12mk18-front-folding-sight.aspx |

However, from the little bit of reading I've done about them, they're legal to own, but since sales are not, it effectively makes them illegal as most full power ones you're going to find are probably hot.

Anyone know what the turnaround time for a tax stamp is right now?
I heard it's 18 months. If that's true I might just pin and weld. |

My last eForm 1 took just short of 7 months. I submitted in June, right before 41F was enacted. Given the initial 41F glut, there's a pig in the snake effect right now, but I'm guessing that will pass in another couple of months.

So I'd be without a rifle. I was thinking.. a 14.5" gun is hard to detect as an sbr; no one would know, even if I took it to the range. But risking it would be stupid. But it's just interesting; got me thinking about how many people out there built Sbr's and never registered them. No one would know if you buy it part by part. |

Shitty iPhone pic. I was playing around with the IR floodlight on the WMX200 last night--me likey, especially indoors. Next move on this one will be a Insight FDE MRDS (if you're selling one, shoot me an IM/Email).

Well after searching and building the last couple of months I think i finally have a good enough start to be posting in this forum, I've been lurking for some time so now it time to put it all out there.
Builds are: Block II- Colt LE lower B5 Sopmod Stock Knights BUIS Surefire Scout Aimpoint M4s BCM socom barrel And of course DD RIS II in brown Block 2 FSP- Colt 6920 lower B5 gen 1 sopmod stock Trijicon ta31rco on qd mount surefire m952v Has 16 in barrel might send to adco but might just get while new upper and start fresh both have a few things that make them not clone perfect but they are getting there. Thanks for the inspiration everybody!  [/URL]" />
