Mid Length Fixed Stock Pic Thread (Page 9 of 10)
Messing around this morning. The lower is for my wife's rifle. She wanted the A2 stock, but wanted it shiny black. So I gambled and bought a UTG stock kit. The buffer spring felt really stiff so I figured I would "test" it before turning her loose with it. Works fine but I think I want get one for myself now.

Attached File Crap potato pic but it’s got a 18” Daniel Defense cold hammer forged barrel (only 18” I could find with a shoulder big enough for a FSB) and a badass KNS pointed front sight pin. I was able to get good consistent hits to 750 yards on man size silhouettes when I wrapped a sling tight. |
This is why we can't have nice things.

Keeping the thread alive...
My A2/A1 hybrid experiment. 14.5" Larue Stealth barrel. Midlength gas system. M4 feedramps. A1 furniture, to include some cut to fit A1 hanguards/custom endcap. Very nice balance. It feels like an improvement over the old 20" M16A1, especially with the heavy barrel.

I have ordered a CMMG A1 stock kit but was originally going to use an MOE grip from the pile of these I have accumulated, but this picture changed my mind. That's just an MOE-K grip, correct? How does it feel with the grip being so small? |

PSA Minutemen-15 lower, CMMG A1 stock kit, PSA EPT lower build kit and PSA Premium upper with FN chrome lined (not CHF) barrel. 
And yes, my carry handle is a bit beat up...

Funnily enough, the only two ARs I've built are mid length, fixed stock builds:  Top is my recently put together spare parts Dissy in 6.8 SPC. Looks weird, but I sorta like the mismatched nature of it. Getting a Griffin Armament A3 grip, and gonna use an old spare bandoleer to make a handguard wrap like I did for the stock. Bottom is my 5.125lb (sans magazine) lightweight build built off Kaiser X-7 polymer receiver set. Been running through stocks on this build, starting with a 4oz Brigand that was super light but looked funky and didn't feel the greatest. Recently picked up the Luth-AR Skullaton, and I think this is its final form. |
 Mostly finished with my HD rifle. Sorry for the crappy pic. I'll have to get a better one. Faxon 14.5" middy gunner .223 Wylde that I P/W myself with a YHW Phantom comp/brake Aero upper non FA Aero 9" Atlas S-one handguard FDE Radian Raptor FDE charging handle Anderson lower POF 3.5lb straight trigger A2 grip FDE A1 stock from Cav Mfg FDE Wojtek adjustable gas block Sig Romeo red dot Magpul BUIS KAC vertical foregrip Still need to get an ambi safety and a dust cover. Can't remember who the sling is by. |

This setup is what I’m strongly considering for a KISS build. I happened upon a sweet deal on a FN 16” middy barrel. So, as it goes, a new rifle is conceived by spare parts doing spare parts things. This will barrel is headed off to Retro Arms Works to have a FSB pinned, then will be mated to a Brownells A1 receiver set (slick-side upper). I thought a set of Boyd’s wood furniture would go quite nicely, but not really keeping with the KISS concept, IMO. (read: “I don’t want to spend that much on furniture”) I may need to take a harder look at the Ace stocks as well. |

Please and thanks. |
Familiarity and prolonged exposure without incident leads to a loss of appreciation of risk.

Specter Gear slings are amazing, I have them on all my rifles. Can't say enough good things about them. https://www.spectergear.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=534 ETA: Just found they have this one that comes with a QD attachment, they say its for the Ruger PC Carbine, but I assume the stock stirrup would still work on any normal fixed stock https://www.spectergear.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=SG%2D1169 |
