Thinking about it when the prices & parts get back to normal since I didn't plan on having a almost complete upper half.

Not to mention I got 20" Colt Barrel with triangle handguards & a A1 Flash hider too. Barrel needs refinished & new barrel extension.

Funny how that works.

Atomic on the lower, I think a bio hazard symbol would be cooler j/K!!!

Nice setup JT...

Ron, you're just the man to make that type of lower.

Your ARs look great jtrade. Thanks for adding the pics to the AR thread.

Hey JT, what grips are those? I like the way they follow the contours. Are they soft like the hogues?
They even look wider which would be awesome with my size 10/11 mitts.

Creo: I'll let you know what image I put on my AR-10. I'm still pondering it, but it has to be government watch list-ish material. I know the model is going to be "Harvester of Sorrow" ....Adam knows the serial number :animlol:

I've always been a fan of "54-40-OR-FIGHT" for a serial number.

MagPul MIAD (MIssion ADaptable).

http://www.magpul.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=78_103&products_id=213

Has removable & replaceable front & rear panels plus different grip cores.

I really like it over the standard AR pistol grip.

Yes...

Those look pretty cool! Hey Adam?

I'm already committed to the Houges on my 10, but I'm going to try those out on my next build.
Anythings better then the stock grips. I mean there not bad, but there pretty small to get a nice grip.

I have rather long fingers for my size so the changable grip panels both front & back really helped with how it fit my hand.

Exactly, just about every new plastic fantastic pistol coming out today, has the changeable back straps. I guess there actually listening to there customer base?

BTW: 40 bucks and it comes with a bunch of fronts and rears - thats a bargin. I think my Hogue cost a little over twenty bucks, and it maybe a little bigger but generaly the same shape...But still leap and bounds over the little five dollar stock piece.

Anywho thanks for sharing J...
