    *A new LMT M4 is born*

    This a new gun that was just completed within the last month. I purchased the lower late last fall and finally had the funds to finish purchasing the upper, rail system, and BUIS (had the light already).

    I have found over the years that for most applications I prefer a 14.5" M4. My origional plans were to just keep this gun set up with iron sights and keep it in my truck. But sometimes plans change.

    Last month during Pat Rogers 3 day EAG Tactical Carbine Course I shot high multiple shooter and second high over all. With that scoring, I won a LaRue Tactical Aimpoint mount and a coyote Viking Tactical VTAC sling. Thanks to both Mark LaRue of LaRue Tactical and Kyle Lamb of Viking Tactical for supporting both Pat Rogers (EAG Tactical) and the shooting community!!!

    This is my only AR that doesn't have an optic on it. I couldn't let the LaRue Tactical Aimpoint mount go to waste. So last week I ordered a Aimpoint ML3 and a Tango Down Vertical Foregrip for this gun.

    New pics to be up soon

    Hey man, badass rifle.

    I'm wondering how you got the DD 7.0 on there with the perm. attached FH? Did you install the rail system before the FH was pinned and welded or is there a way to install the DD without taking the FH off?

    I'm not USMC03, but I helped him build that rifle.

    1st.) That's a LARUE 7.0, not a DD 7.0.

    2nd.) Yes, we installed the rail before getting the FH permanently installed.

    foundtomarrow,



    Looks like molson answered your questions. The only way to get a free floated rail on a gun that has a perminately attached flash hider / muzzle brake is to install the free float tube before you perminately install the flash hider.

    If you have a barrel that already has a perminately installed flash hider, you can (carefully) cut the flash hider off the barrel (thus destroying the perminatley installed flash hider), install the free float tube, then perminately re-install a new flash hider.
