At some point, maybe 2 years ago, I became a lot more attracted to the idea of an A4 clone...but knew that meant MUCH more money. Well, over the past couple of years, I acquired a very lightly used TA01 for an awesome price, and even snagged a P&S Systems RAS....so the time was now to go ahead with the project. I awaited the BCM 20 inch government uppers to be in stock then pounced on one. The lower is Anderson, and I used the BCM PNT trigger (actually quite nice). Receiver extension/spring/buffer from BCM, but had to get the stock from PSA (seems perfectly fine and solid).
Is it 100 percent accurate? No...But I friggin love this thing.
It is sort of a tribute to my best friend who was in the Marine Corps from about '04-'08 (hence the millennium series light) and carried an A4 on his second deployment (with M203).
Range report hopefully soon.
That looks good. I would not fret over it not being 100% correct. Many A4 builds I see are not, including the two I have. Close is good. What is important is that it looks right, shoots great, and you like it.
These are my two M16A4 clones. I did the first one back in 2008. I wanted to do a USMC clone myself. I started with a complete CMMG 20" Gov't model (which I picked up used) and added the goodies (Trijicon TA31-RCOA4, MaTech rear sight, KAC M5 RAS, and the sling). The other I built from the ground up (more or less). It has a Windham Weaponry A2 Gov't. Profile 20inch Upper Receiver/Barrel Assembly (which is very accurate), a Windham Weaponry detachable carrying handle, Windham Weaponry M16 BCG, McKay Enterprises lower (no logo - ETA: Now replaced with a custom M16A4 marked lower), PSA lower parts, an original M16A2 safety selector (modified), a White Oak Armament A2 buttstock assembly (great stuff), and a P&S Products M5 RAS.
