Has anyone ever seen or heard of anyone/armorer's changing out standard trigger guards for aftermarket, larger ones? Like the magpuls etc? I've seen so many pictures of other aftermarket additions but personally haven't seen one with this little upgrade...

The Block II recce is coming together slowly but surely.
Can't wait to get an LPVO on there; it's going to be hard to be patient and save. Here's what I'm leaning towards right now... Rush it: Steiner P4xi 1-4X24 Hold out and save moar'er: Vortex Razor HD Gen II 1-6X24 |

I guess I'll post my progress.
Almost complete, still need: - Coyote SOPMOD - Warcomp needs pinned and weld - QD mount for ACOG - QD sling mounts - Colt CH on the way, may get a PRI GB or G ACH eventually though 
dbal comes from my SBR and just wanted to see how a mid mounted LAM would balance the rifle out. I more than likely will be getting another though for this build instead of a PEQ. |

Question for the clone Gods. If a "clone correct" Geissele URGI could be purchased for a fair price wouldn't that be the way to acquire much of the wanted upper parts? Just swap the barrel and rail system...
