Yeah, gave the upper a squirt of Krylon this morning, will just use it as is. 
Will do for now till I get a Colt upper. Colt Canada hasn't sold any stripped uppers yet, tons of stripped lowers. There were surplus fixed carry handle C8 uppers selling for $400, but not the right upper. Guess it would be wierd to build a Mk18 clone on a Colt Canada lower? |

To the disdain of my wife, I got my man-barbies out and started swapping parts around :
I dunno, they look sort of weird with the Canadian lowers. Also, going way off topic, I did up my Mk12ish clone as well, and just doesn't feel right. 
There's a company called SFRC, and if I recall correctly, weren't they willing to export some Diemaco stuff to the US? They were the ones who had surplus fixed carry handle C8s for $450 or something like that. They also had these surplus Diemaco marked BCGs for $189, very, very slick bcgs. |

Such as a few years ago when you originally told me the M4 used the H buffer and the M4A1 used the H2 buffer, I still misremembered it as both rifles using the H buffer for at least a solid year straight. I'm sure you remember that one.
My memory is the equivelant of scrambled eggs and I'm starting to realize its genetic. Moms side.

The "powers ( )" that be just can't have their narrative of one brand to rule them all destroyed. So, you'll keep tuning into CNN bias news until then.Considering it was me that originally posted the link to DD's mil/gov CQBR uppers in here, and that they're listed on DD's own .gov site, I'd say I'm quite in the loop on the subject. I know you were around to see the link/pictures/etc. Plenty around here have long seen the link/info regarding their mil configured and supplied CQBR uppers. Beyond that, the national sales manager from DD himself has personally stated in here on more than one occasion that those same exact uppers have in fact been purchased by SOCOM. And not just one or once. Frankly, I could give a shit what any of you Coltflakes think. DD complete CQBR uppers have been fielded. Period. Do they represent a fraction of a percent compared to Colt? Sure. That matters none pertaining to this subject, though. People that care enough can search through this thread all they want. They'll find me linking to the exact uppers on DD's site at least twice over the years. And they'll also find Joe from DD personally stating in this thread that their CQBR uppers have been purchased, and are in use by the mil - in some capacity. Whether it's 1,000 of them, or two dozen of them, still irrelevant. They're there, and still being made and sold by DD to this day as well. DD isn't continuing to make and offer mil only CQBR uppers because no one is buying them... You can believe whatever you want. I know many others in here that don't snort Colt flakes for breakfast also have long known the reality on this subject. |

I'm not participating in the argument or trying to dispute, but they sent the SOCOM an upper with a plastic dust cover? I do notice the lack of laser etching on the receiver at least. Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By MILSPEC556:

Anybody running a Griffin M4SDk or M4SD series suppressor on a Mod 1. I have a brownells mk18 upper. Test fit my hammer comp today. Seems even with all the included shims and overtravel stop I'm just shy of latch gate screws clearing rail. Might just use a second over travel stop as a spacer. Anybody else have this setup or maybe another griffin muzzle device with more clearance?
