    Anyone building a retro AR?

    Where are you finding parts. I have 2 more new Usgi uppers, chrome bolt carrier groups, and m16a1 barrels to build.

    That would be the route I'd take if I was doing another.

    Top one is a early 604 Air Force slick side. Has Edgewater buffer, chrome bolt , extra rings mag release etc

    Edgewater buffer was to light for full auto fire and changed to modern day type

    Take down pins etc have dimples, you can get into some $$$ building a correct replica. The early rifles can really get into your pocket

    Sorry jjones ,didnt mean to derail your thread. You really have me wanting to build another now. If you decide you want Garand parts or ??? in trade for a upper let me know
