Block 1 inspired Colt Commando

[Mygrainman]

This started life as an agency trade in Colt 6933 Commando upper.
I was bored one evening and decided to throw the parts bin at it. I really didn’t plan on it being a permanent thing...I kinda liked the bare bones Commando, and was collecting parts for another Block 1 build.. but alas It turned out too cool to strip back down. Now it’s one of my favorites.
Future plans include a 6920 lower, SBR stamp,

Colt Upper... Earlier 6933 Commando with Light profile .625” 11.5” Barrel
KAC RAS & Forgrip
Surefire 6P with SR-07 switch and IR cap..
KAC Flashlight Mount
Silencerco ASR flash hider
Aero lower for now(passively seeking a 6920 to SBR) no hurry though.
BCM Grip
RediMag
Tactical Link
Ambi selector
SB S.O.B. Pistol brace(added since pics were taken)
KAK pistol tube.. extra long to help get the >26” for AOW status so I can run a VFG.
And I’m sure I’m missing other misc. tacticool jewelry....


As with all my ARs, it has evolved a bit since I took these... I’ll have to take some updated pics and post them later..

Looks nice! You can find Colt OEMs at some great prices right now. They don't have LE prefixes as far as I know (if that's important). But you can get the rifle and sell the upper or part it out and end up with a cheap lower.

[Mygrainman]

Definitely has to be LE... I’m OCD like that. Also considering having an 80% engraved with “M4 Commando”...
I’m in no hurry with this one though... I have a MK12 build that’s taking priority right now, and with the RediMag on there you can’t really see what lower it is anyway.

Awesome build! Keep us updated as it evolves.

Super cool build. Thank you for sharing.

[Mygrainman]

Thanks guys! I will definitely keep you updated. Just be careful what you ask for. I’m new to this forum, so if you aren’t familiar with me from some of the others... I tend to take take lots of pics of my “babies” and maybe over share a little.
Isn’t that why we build em’ though?;)
