    If I could use a 14.5" barrel without the hassle, it would be great. Am also thinking about an Xm177E2

    My friend's rifle started with a 'Dissipater' front end, but used slightly modified (for clearance) A1 handguards. Same 605 look, Carbine reliability!

    I've looked at the dissipator barrels, but it would make the barrel 17" long with the muzzle device. I understand the "same look" but it's not the
    same rifle. In many things, I am an originalist and like things as they were, not just made to look like it. Enlarging the gas port with the rifle length ags system has proven to work in many builds, so that is how I am going.

    Were not the "real" 605's select fire?
