My mid-length is done!

[M4arc]

This isn't really a new build, it's more of a re-configuration. The basic gun is the same but I switched out the LaRue BUIS for a Troy, ditched the vertical grip, moved the 6P over from another carbine and installed a Vickers sling.

Here are the complete specs:
- PWA 'Commando' lower receiver
- CMT/Stag Lower Parks Kit
- Tango Down grip
- Magpul trigger guard
- VLTOR buttstock with H buffer
- CMT upper receiver
- Sabre Defence 1:7 twist mid-length barrel
- LaRue 9.0
- CMT M16 BCG with MP'd bolt and Wolff Extra Power extractor spring
- PRI Gas Buster charging handle
- LaRue EoTech Riser mount
- EoTech 552 Rev F
- SureFire 6P
- VLTOR SureFire mount (Classic)
- MI #6 Sling Mount
- Blue Force Vickers 2-Point Sling
- Tango Down panels
- Magpul rail ladders

Here's a few gun porn pictures with a couple of M&P9s thrown in 'just because'. One's mine and one is Dingers.

Nice looking build. What are those two "things" next to it.

[RyanS]

Very nice looking rifle. But I'm with Dport...what are those two things next it? They sort of detract from what would otherwise be an superb visual experience.

[DrMark]

Very nice, M4arc. Not too different from how my next build may end up. (I gotta get some lowers.)

How do you activate your light, with the knuckle of your left hand index finger?

Yep, that's it.

As for those two American made beauties in the picture, get used to it, the M&P is here to stay

Beautiful blaster Marc. I have a foliage green mid-length that just went through a reconfiguration:

-Removed the light and the vertical foregrip and replaced them with tango down pannels

-Replaced the LaRue with a Troy BUIS

-Replaced the Aimpoint with a TA11 ACOG on a LaRue mount.

Looks like this gun, but with a Vltor stock and in Foliage Green:

Some of your changes were the catalyst for some of my changes. The switching to the Troy BUIS, and the way you mount the Vickers Sling through the VLTOR for instance. Based on LAV's advice I ditched the vert grip. I love the way the mid-length balances now!

However I did want a light on mine because this will be my primary carbine.

[Hawkeye]

Nicely done. Looks very similar to mine.

[snacks]

Very nice. Have you got a chance to shoot her yet. Also how do you like the M&P pistols. I haven't gotten a chance to try one out. Wondering on out their out of the box accuracy and overall ergonomics.
