Picked this up the other day. Are we ready to call the A4 version "Retro" or is it too early?

Nice! How do you like it? I have been wanting an A4 but Colt’s and FNs are hard to come by, I’ve seen those sold for reasonable prices lately.

Fit and finish are very nice. Unfortunately, I'm ammo challenged at the moment, so range day will have to wait.

Where from, if you don’t mind me asking? I’ve been trying to find one, even called WW, and they weren’t much help. Told me to place one on backorder with a dealer.

This was from the local CAL Ranch store. Surprised to see it there since their firearms counter is pretty limited.

I picked up a 16” barrel MPC a few months ago, but no one that I’ve found has had a 20” “gov barrel” model. Was curious if you’d ordered online.

Got my WW govt a few years back. Excellent weapon. Very highly recommend them. I only swapped out the trigger (personal preference only) and mounted a scope. It's my 100 meter + gun. Out of the box with hard sights it was dead on at 50m. Now and then it has a bipod but mostly not.

I have one of the windham ones, they are great shooters.

One thing i been researching and not found an answer yet.
How does the scope do with the front sight? I have ready mixed reviews on it?

Not an issue. Scope is a 4x12. Once I start getting past 3x the fsb disappears.

Plenty of images out there. https://www.google.com/search?q=ar15+scope+with+fsb&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiw48rv97nwAhUNVc0KHWGUB9QQ_AUoAnoECAEQBA&biw=1227&bih=549

I googled the crap out of it. But i had mixed answers. And figured i would ask you as you have exactly what i was looking at.

I think one factor would be differences in original sight radius lengths with carbines vs rifles, etc.

BAMAshooter, that could be what I was reading about.

Nice rifle! I used a WW barrel for my A2 build, and it was excellent!
