Tonight I went out to install the delta ring and then put the barrel into the receiver. No problem, looked in the gas tube bin, several mid-lengths and rifles, no carbine gas tubes. In addition, I checked and found out the handguards I was going to put on it (Magpul MOE SL MLOK) are mid-length not carbine.
So, I got to thinking, I don't have and extra stock laying around either. So I ordered a Magpul MOE SL stock and handguards, plus the gas-tube (two in order to have a spare) so I'm out another $126.00 with shipping and tax.
So far this little adventure is costing me a little more than I planned. Oh, well. I'll have another carbine length M4ish rifle, so that's two of those and two mid-length M4ish's.
Why do I do these things?
