Indeed. My KA and G&G are very much incompatible lol that being said, aren't KA receivers relatively easy to find?

Finally got my second specter today.

Looking good! Colourful!

Almost finished my M468 build. Just need to throw in a new inner barrel, and maybe better wiring+deans.

Internal+Eternal rundown on request.

Almost finished. M4 PDW

KA Tanker m4 re-wired to front with high capacity wires, on Lipo. I also wanted a folding stock so I grabbed the Dboys folding LR300. It is one of the only stocks I could find on the market that folds LEFT. Folding right is not an option because of the extra material on the right side of the receiver. I was super impressed with how solid it was and its simple design. It also clears the aggresive cuts of the VLTOR body.

I did notice when ripping the gun down It has a shitty plastic Spring guide with a small m4 machine nut epoxy'd into place. The new folding stock would rip this out quickly, definitely if I plan on using a 1pt sling.. So i swapped it out with a nice Full metal threaded one. Cut the upper receiver end to shorten the overall gun length and make it UBER stiff by the mating area.

Was fun ripping apart a SCAR gripod to store the Lipo battery in it. Just waiting on a 360* sling mount and perhaps move the battery into a Peq box and run a stubby grip? I'm Ultra jealous of RITZ's Rebar cutter style flash hider too..

Pow pow pow!

My bastardized ICS sportline. Used an old binocular case in place of a PEQ (because I'm cheap and being able to fit a large 9.6 battery is nice). Still trying to find a way to make the wires less visible.

My M16. Built off a WE OB. Furniture is all ErgoGrips except the RIS, which is by Blackhawk.

Rear wire to Lipo in the buffer?

Don't feel comfortable rewiring or otherwise prepping for lipo's yet I'm afraid. Besides, I wanted to keep this gun stock as long as possible... internally at least. I might change my mind when/if the gears strip or something.

Question for Wilkie on page 40 (and anyone else with advice):

Colt Commando (Model 933). I'd really like to have one, bone-stock 80s- 90s hotness (boringness).
I'm guessing that going with the KA nylon version and sourcing a metal lower is my best (cheapest) option, but I'm wondering whether I'd be better served parts and market-wise by buying a metal KA and swapping the outer barrel to an 8.5".

Can I even do that? Does a standard M4 triangle/ handguard fit on an 8.5"?

Man, that looks great, Stealth!

I was about to order a T1 and a SRS, but the latter is sold out. Still a long time till spring though so it's all good

Stealth, do you guys happen to sell those textured panels on your sight?
