Haven’t posted here in a while.  My M4 lost its Aimpoint last week to my PCC.  Confirmed zero on the irons Saturday.(Still zeroed but
I think next time I get to the rifle range I will replace the MaTech with a Knight 600m like my other rifle.)
Once my T1 comes back from Aimpoint it will have a permanent home on here.   The full-size PRO is better for USPSA stages.
Also the micro fits the bill for this rifle; keeping weight down and being functional.   Also the issue rifles with T1s are my favorite.

Enjoy Mediocre pictures of a mediocre rifle!

Would the MRE technically be a Block 1 or 1.5 gun?

Weird, but I bought a few of the old black aluminum follower 20’s(my favorite as well) and even though I got them all at the same time, and they have the same stampings they wore down to 3 different colors. copper, silver, and grey.

I decided upon the spacer and a2 route for my block 1 but since having found out a bayonet doesnt mount correctly with the spacer, Im considering swapping over to an a2x. Im having a hard time tracking down an a2x though and am wondering if BCM has stopped making them because they are sold out everywhere

The nitrade finish is whats keeping me from buying one. they are marked down to $10 at the moment though.

Thanks for letting me know about Adco`s FH. I seen they didnt have the bcm but didnt realize they have their own. I placed an order for one so I will decide if I want to swap it out after it arrives. The spacer and standard fh looks better but id kind of like a bayonet to mount correctly

The only downside is nitride leaves a shinier looking finish. The treatment is actually better than a standard park job. So if this is something you would rattle can, go for it. I need to snag one myself

My dad gave me a 6921 upper for my birthday. I also bought a spare 6920 lower. Just got a KAC M4 RAS in the mail. This build is coming along nicely. I put it on my SBR lower since I still need to get it pinned.

I could use some advice on what rail covers to get, since it doesn't look like they are being sold cheaply in bulk like they were a few years ago. I'm going to go with a long one on the left side, but what length do I need for the right side to cover what the light doesn't cover?

Also, if I go with a 2 rib on the front followed by a KAC VFG, what size do I need behind the vfg?

Thanks!

ETA: What are your thoughts on the extended A2 vs the KAC barrel extension and a standard A2?
Link Posted: 6/2/2018 2:51:11 PM EST
[Last Edit: ckopp636] [#14]
Check the EE for KAC rail covers

as far as the FH setup, the spacer and standard a2 look better than the extended flash hider, but a bayonet doesnt sit correctly on the spacer setup. I actually just placed an order for an extended a2 from adco so I can swap it out for my spacer and standard a2.

Added a Vickers One sling.  I really like this sling for a low profile option on a carbine.

My Block 2 may be the only setup I’ve got rid of that I’d don’t miss.  Seriously prefer the block 1 for Reddot stuff and a lighter more modern setup for

Figure I'd offer it up in here first before going to the EE, I've got a redimag that I'm not going to be using after all.

Got it on trade from @5pt56 who had @Tigwelder1971 modify it into the work of art it is. It's a great piece, just not going to use it like intended and would rather have one of my clone brothers have it.

All I'm asking is $50, so I can recoup my $$ from item I traded and to cover shipping. Had intended on just giving away, but with having to install a new HVAC in my home ever little bit counts

ill have to check, but i think i cut one of them for a better fit against the grip

ETA: I have one cover cut down to about 3 3/4 rib and one 2 rib on bottom.

To cut them I use a dremel with a cutting wheel, then use a sanding drum to round the sides, sand smoother by hand, and finish it by applying heat with a lighter to bring the black back out of the plastic

I had the same issue near the top of the page and went with an a2x from adco which is a schuster with a yhm crush washer. inner bore diameter is way larger than standard a2, but thread pitch is the same and Im happy with it. The pics with bayonet on this page are with the extended a2 from adco

I have a complete Colt upper which I have assembled over the last couple years. I got one of those cheap SOCOM 14.5 barrels, a KAC M4 rail, and Colt receiver and BCG. A Matech rear sight and Aimpoint Comp M2 round out the upper, as well as a few small parts made by who cares who. Oh, and a Surefire 951 and KAC VG.

What do you guys do for lowers? In the age of 130 dollar PSA lowers I just clench at the thought of paying 350 or more for a Colt lower, plus the SBR fees.

In the end, I suppose I’ll bite the bullet on a Colt lower half, I just had to think it through. My PSA SBR lower just doesn’t look quite right with an all Colt upper half.

I suppose you can just consider this a humble brag for my M4A1 upper half.
