So..I was getting bored with my SGW AR-15. see pict below...
 So I sold my Smith-Corona 1903A3, bought the Bushmaster 11.5/5.5" barrel assembly and the ACE Skeleton stock and made this...  |

As cool as that gun is, I leave in dissappointment.

If you're going to slap a new stock on it, might as well get a retracting one.
Your first mistake was buying an upper that had an integral carry handle. Flattops are the way to go. |

IMO, retracting stocks suck. I have never fired an AR with one that was comfortable to me. Now due to the limited budget, I didn't get an upper receiver, I just swapped barrels, flat tops were not an option.

LOL'ed hard. Personally, I'm also a fan (both aesthetically and functionally) of flat top ARs, preferably with a RIS and a forward handguard. But hey, a gun is definitely better than no gun. |

That's the spirit, Pariel! Budget and NY law were influencing my decision to go with a barrel change. I took the money I had from the sale of the S-C and put it towards the parts I wanted. Although the rifle is a pre-ban made in 1985, I would not be allowed to put a retractable stock on it because it was originally made without one. The barrel has a pinned and welded over suppressor so that it can not be removed. The original rifle had threaded flash suppressor and bayonet lug. The bayonet lug is useless on this barrel and flash suppressors don't make it invisible in the dark. |

Most New Jerseyans have to do the same thing -- because black rifles are definitely the cause of most firearms crimes (and now I need a dodgy).
I do like the new short barrel a lot. I think the "permanent" flash hider look is actually pretty sweet. The only thing that I would actually find annoying about the rifle would be the extremely high red dot, although I guess it probably allows some very strange/comfy shooting positions, especially while laying on the couch. |

The red dot is a tad high- I prefer a reflex sight at about half that height personally, but as long as you train your muscle memory to it, it's fine. Is the carry handle weaver adapter a see-through for the irons?

It is a very old Leatherwood, non see through. I have a similar one on my other AR. The upper is an original Colt M16. back in 1985, SGW/Olympic Arms made the lower and added M16 upper and internals. I dumped the internals and replaced with legal AR15 parts. I can still use the M16 bolt carrier in it. The height of the optic doesn't give me an issue when I snap in with it. We'll see after I get the headspace checked and take it to the range.

why the velocity/accuracy of a SBR but the length of a carbine? why not SBR 11.5 or a standard 16"?

2. Jealousy
3. Despite my love for AR's, I am much more of a high powered rifle guy.
But do carry on.

I like the retro-look, but you might be wrong on the collapsable stock thing if NY law is a mirror of the old AWB. I think as long as it was already an "assault-rifle" with a bayo lug and flash hider you can have as many evil features as you want. I also dislike collapsing stocks with that annoying twang the buffer makes in my cheekbone.
picking up my receiver and a pair of bolt cutters/ future rivit tool tomorrow

I am looking for an A1 upper reciever, I go more for the history than the bling. Will have my CAR-15 modded as a XM177E2, as soon as I get a A1 upper.
Small piece of foam rubber in sping will make the 'twang' go away, old GI trick. As for NYS as long as the weapon is pre-ban and came with colapsable stock is legal, after market stocks or post-ban modifacations are a no-no. And as long as weapon is pre-ban 20 and 30rd magazines are allowed, if not magazine blocks are required. Edited by oldsoldier - 08 February 2010 at 7:51pm |
