I had a pretty nice rifle but had been thinking of tinkering with it for awhile when someone offered to sell me a used but never fired Noveske lower. I had contacted a friend who had been wanting me to put an AR15 together for him at a pretty low cost. We decided what I could sell him and what he could afford to buy and well, I didn't end up keeping much!!

Before:

http://suicidehz.zoto.com/img/original/86c0f7bb70ef3f3e400fb335126f4b92-.jpg

LMT M4 upper

WOA SS 1:7 midlength barrel turned to 0.90" under the handguards by Steve at ADCO and then fluted.

F marked set-screwed FSB

A2 FS

DD 12.0FSPM that I cut shorter

WOA bolt and carrier group

RRA lower with Steve's pinned RRA NM 2-stage trigger

All tan parts were Duracoated in Tiger Stripe Brown- a beautiful color with a lot of chameleon like properties.

Newest Iteration:

Noveske N4 lower with the RRA 2-stage NM

Magpul CTR

LMT H2 buffer

Upper is the Mur-1 with FA and deflector

Same barrel

DD was graciously refinished by Jay and is better than it was to begin with

MP tested bolt with extraction upgrade by Grant

M16 CMT carrier staked like you wouldn't believe by Grant

This time I applied a matte clear over the barrel to keep it from "discoloring due to the elements."

KAC 300m that served in Iraq at some point and I refinished with DC

Eotech 512 on a LaRue mount

DD push button sling mount just in front of barrel nut.

BFG SOC-C sling I disassembled to suit my needs 6 months ago

Thanks guys! It had sat for 2 months while I figured out how to best handle the previous DC until Molsen offered to sell me the N4 lower. Within days it was all figured out...

ETA: it sat IN PIECES

That is sweet.

Your barrel looks naked, a little KG would look great.

I was >this< close to Duracoating it black when I did my friend's parts.

Then Someone posted their's with the SS barrel and I figured I'd just reblast it with AlO2 and then put matte DC clear over it to prevent the spotting I had before...

The sun was hitting it fairly well in those pics. It usually matches the Labelle mags.

The PRI fat latch is new- I had their FLAT latch before and it sucks. I've also owned two badger types as well.

The MIAD is my 5th or 6th replacement but the first to have the new texture- I never sent in any of my pre-order versions to upgrade until I ordered the CTR.

The textured is great and I no longer am searching for the best Skateboard tape to use for the cutout versions...

I've been using the sling like this for quite some time and a few months before BFG announced the Vicker's coop. I've been tempted to get one and try it out but this one does almost the same thing.

But then again, this would work well on the Polish Underfolder with a snaphook up front...

I also really like the KAC 300m. Why don't more people use them?

Joe sweet blaster. As to the KAC 300 meter I quit using one several years ago. It wore in and would not stay up when firing the gun. By then better buis's were on the market so I ditched it for a Arms.

Well, if it wears I can always take it apart and re duracoat it again! Maybe get it thick enough to stay for awhile. :p

I'd like to not have to throw it away- it served in the middle east on someone's rifle. I got it for $60 on TOS from a guy that had brought back a few. Hopefully not "stolen."

I used it all day at the range Sunday and didn't bother to play with the Eotech too much. I like the Irons.

That rifle is waaayyyy too clean. I REALLY like the brush finish on that concrete!:D Go put some good, honest wear and dirt on that rifle/ It's the only civilized thing to do.

this rifle is real nice in person. we went shooting this past weekend, a little break in for both our rifles (the one pictured here and the one that he put together for me with a mix of new and 'hand me down' parts). after sighting in on sat, joe dropped a real nice opening 3 shot group on sunday morning (2 of 3 touching, all three in less than the diameter of a quarter).

joe does REAL nice work, attention to detail and his perfectionist mentality led to two very nice rifles!

the other non pictured AR that joe built is my first and i'm loving every bit of it!

SuicideHz,

Thanks for all the great information and the invite to this forum! I can't wait to start building on my future M4!

Nice to see you showed up Matgyver. That Beretta forum has it's share of idiots.

Did you look into putting your Kimber up for trade yet?

For everyone's information, Matgyver is looking to trade a Kimber for an AR...

The only problem with Paul's rifle was the only real new part on it- the CMMG barrel that has straight and sharp feedramps that look nowhere near as nice as those on this WOA barrel. His were catching every other round of Radway Green and just about ruining our weekend.

In all fairness to CMMG, they offered to take a look at it and would fix anything that was the result of poor workmanship. However, I don't feel workmanship has anything to do with it. I've been told that their extensions aren't exactly mil-spec M4 extensions. This is something I'd like to look into in the near future.

I think this rifle needs a low power variable scope but don't want to spend too much at the moment. I really did the Eotech and it served me well today. The Shoot'n'Sees were no match for me...

:D
