Troy and Midwest Industries, I went with MI. They make a 15" but I chose the 12" to help keep weight lower. Older picture, before the swap to Leupold VX-6 1-6x and a Larue mount.

Did the same thing. Turned out great, just remember to buy the longer dust cover door rod.

is the stock barrel nut a bitch to get off?it seems every factory upper i disassemble gives me fits!
also i think these guns come with a lifetime warranty.does removing the stock nut mess up the warranty?

I'm not interested in rails, so I ordered a plain DPMS free float tube for mine.
