AR Rifle 20"

[Nephrology]

I keep coming back to look at this. I can't think of a single practical reason to build an 18" or 20" when my 16" is perfectly fine for any reasonable need I may have but dang if this one doesn't have the hamsters in my brain running in overdrive.

And now I remember I have a side charging upper receiver I'd put back for a project that never happened and I've been meaning to strip the Poverty Pony lower on my "good" carbine and put the parts in the spare Aero stripped lower so my "good" carbine becomes a "better" carbine. Sonofabitch this is about to get real...

Big, heavy, no recoil, stupid accurate. Why don't you own one already?

Ummmm, reasons? And probably not very good reasons at that.

How long is that handguard? 12"? 13"?

12" I believe.

This will be of interest to most in this thread. Used Colt Sporter Target upper with BCG and CH for $400 shipped. I was SOOO close to ordering one but it would not be financially smart for me at the moment. If they still have any in stock next payday I'll probably get one.

A complete Aero A2 lower is $250 plus whatever shipping and transfer costs are. $700 for a pretty good A2 style rifle.

I figured they wouldn't last long.

Capco surplus M16A2 uppers.

I snagged one of the NOS FN M16A4 uppers they have at DOA from someone else for around $400...which I thought was a pretty good package price for a genuine FN 20" setup. I have an old Bushmaster A2 lower that I am mating it to for giggles. I'll probably replace the MATech rear sight with a carry handle.

Of course, I guess what I'm supposed to do is put an ACOG on it.

I want to get an A4 clone with an ACOG too. Almost as much as I want an A2 clone.
