Been trying to polish this turdd, not even glitter helps....(still a turdd).  :P
Some mods done...many remain. I enjoy "project" guns. I knew its shortcomings going in, no surprises and having fun making it better.

Mike, I’m glad your prod brought you back! Very nice gun, so is you Kral! I’m in OC too but I am not allowed to pest HOSP’s as SWIMO loves birds, only rattus! Welcome back to the foray 😉.

Mine loves birds also (as well as I do). But to see what Hosps did to our bluebirds in their birdhouses last year changed my wife's mind.....changed her mind on invasive birds that is.

Game on for the prod and the 1377!

Thanks Manny, I probably missed more than a few of your pig hunt threads in my time away from GTA (I missed those).
Just got back to mainland last week. Always nice, our time over there.

Like the foregrip.   I've done a couple with a magpul foregrip, but yours looks "tougher".  :)

Welcome back! Nice looking back yard defenders!

I'm assuming that's an AR handguard. Who makes it, and how did you mount it?

Not sure of mfg....more of a generic 12" drop in. I milled some side panels to take up the space, and machined the mounts (mounts in OEM locations).
