I'd like to think mine is just as nice or better and I spend close to a grand less. Be patient and build one. I have a new lower and upper sitting here for a new build.

 

i dont have the know how or knowlege to put one together myself.

 

Sure you do, it's 100 times easier then building a motor. I build uppers and lowers. If your not comfortable I'd do it for you if you pay shipping.

 

can you follow directions? can you watch a vid and follow directions? If not, come up and I'll do it, it will be a thank you for your help 4 years ago when I did my brakes and never done them before.

 

wow, you have a better memmory than i do. i dont remember what i had for lunch yesterday!

i'm sure i can physically put one together...i dont know what parts are good or now, what works together, what looks cool, feels cheap...

my dad brought the colt home last night and i liked it because it was not cheap feeling and rattley like some other AR weapons i have held. it felt like a real gun and not all plastic.

 

Ha!! most of mine rattle...

The thing to do is get a lower parts kit and leave out the fire control group. get a good trigger and whatever butstock/pistol grip you want

They are silly easy to put together. installing the bolt catch is the hardest thing to do..

 

Stick a foam ear plug under the lug on the rear take down pin, that will soak up some slop and help with the rattle. I have the most trouble with the detent in the front take down pin. I use a set of pliers with masking tape wrapped around the jaws on the bolt catch, never hard a hard time since. I think the hardest part of the whole gun is the gas tube retention pin in the big over sized gas blocks. I kinda like those Kies Gen II adjustable gas blocks for their threaded pin hole. But I really like mid-length gas systems with rifle length tubes.

 

****, actually, I mixed you up with silver-mod-o by mistake...not sure how though

Not sure how far that is, but I would be willing to assist you if you ever needed it

 

I'm pretty sure I can build one hanging upside down, blindfolded while someone interrogates me

 

major payne?
