Just as it states. Been looking at the spikes upper on AIM. It seems to be the only dog in town with 1/7 twist. Are you happy with your purchase? Thank you.

Do you like GMP?  (and who doesn't?)

If so, you'll be real happy with the dissy, awesome upper.

they rock, and these are the last ones, due to a large price increase, they aren't making more

I don't have that particular one, but I do have 3 Spikes 1x7 uppers that are fantastic...!  One 10" pistol, all bought from AIM.

Have you got it yet?

Bryan,

You should use some of your buying power to get someone like Faxon, Anderson or another supplier to build a budget Dissy. I would build one but I don't know how or where to pin the FSB.

How about shaving a hair more length off that barrel? Not sure if you could go down all the way to 14.5, but maybe 15, start the muzzle threads right at the FSB like an AK, pin/weld flash hider for just a hair over 16" overall?

I'd buy one in a heartbeat, especially if you do do one with a chrome-lined barrel, i'm not so much into nitrided barrels.

Bryan/ Faxon

Please strike a deal on just a Dissy barrel. I'm ok building my upper as long the lowpro GB and FSB are already in place.

I am stoked. I liked the spikes but never had the coin to drop on the spikes. A barrel is a lot easier to pay for vs a $600 upper.

Yeah I agree. It's way easier to drop 70 on an upper, 80 for a BCG and whatever the barrel will cost.

Perfect,  looks like as soon as I finish my current build (using a Faxon 14.5" gunner) ,  Ill have an excuse to build another rifle....

What's the chance you're going to use a FA-less upper receiver? I'm a lefty and dislike the FA, especially since it's just useless weight and bulk.

Just buy the barrel and then buy the Anderson upper that AIM is currently selling. A match made in heaven for you.

Any word on whether Magpul plans on making a rifle-length SL handguard?

Been using the carbine for a while and just re-built a middy upper with a round handguard cap so I could use the middy SL, really really like these, a solid improvement over other models, not only slim but extended in length, the middy's almost as long as a conventional rifle length, a rifle-length SL on a dissy would be fucking superb.

Huh. Not any more? I got mine a while back for $529. I guess that was a good deal/

Another thought, was just looking at the mlok handguards on your site, would that 13" work with the FSB or is it too long? Probably a hair too long huh, would be sweet though.
