Everything is RRA Lower, 6 Position Collapsible Buttstock, 16" Heavy barrel, A2 Upper, Bolt group etc. My second build is underway. http://people.musc.edu/~kingl/Photos/AR15/100_0114.jpg http://people.musc.edu/~kingl/Photos/AR15/100_0095.jpg Edit: Oops too big. Resized image. |

When I assembled the upper I was surprised how heavy it is. I don't know what it weighs, I'll have to check that. I have a Bushy M4 14.5" with perm attached phantom for my second build. I'm going to rotate this upper to my second lower as a gift to my Dad. I just couldn't wait to get the A4 upper to see a completed rifle so I went ahead and assembled it. The Bushy barrel is significantly lighter that the RRA. I don't know by how much. But when you hold one in each hand it's a pretty noticeable difference. I just got the bolt carrier group and charge handle yesterday (which is why the one picture is missing the charge handle) so I haven't even had a chance to shoot yet. I'll follow up after I put a few rounds through it. |

I guess mine is relatively simple, it does have a free float quad rail on it and a BUIS but it doesn't have the vertical grip, light, optics (yet). It's fun too. By the way, post #223. MJD Link |

Took me forever to get to the range to shoot it. I finally made it monday. I ran about 50 rounds through it. No malfunctions. The only problem I had was with an old magazine not setting the bolt catch after last round. My groups weren't overly impressive. I'm certain it's the shooter and not the rifle. I got about 1" at 50 yards while sighting in. I rapid fired the last 15 or 20 rounds. Again, no problems at all. Can't wait to finish my 2nd now! |
