That is one very nice and cool rifle there Rocky. Few $$$$'s tied up there I'll bet!
I'll wager that is one gun you will NOT be parting with any time soon
Thx for showing that - I must wipe off some drool now, if you'll excuse me

Back in 1983, I gave $325 for an AR. I sold it long ago and often wish I still had it.

Nope, i have only sold 1 gun in my life. When I bought the AR , the salemans asked if I wanted the cardboard box, as it would be worth more if I sold it. Told him to keep the box.
thanks Qkshooter, for the pic. fixing.
Even loaded , the gun weights about 7 lbs. Not too bad, considering 1 lb. is a 30 rnd mag of ammo.

I have had a few peices of brass slip down the shirt, so added a brass deflecrtor bigger than the original. Otherwise the AR is set up for ambi use. I converted my safety to the RT side of the lower for ease of use too.
I am somewhat intrested in the Stag uppers, and they should fit , no problem with a carbon lower. Will see, I may build another AR w/ the LH upper.

Very nice Rocky. Don't you just love how easy they are to take apart for cleaning! I'm surprised you dont have a dbl mag connector.
They are a hoot to shoot!!

I tried , but the due light weight of the Carbon 15 the spare mag . would lose ammo during the recoil impulse.

You could try using a mag cover on the loaded spare to eliminate that problem, but that would add an extra step of having to take the cover off before insertion. .

They sell for $7.50 for a set of four and can be found at: www.bushmaster.com
Nonetheless, your AR is a fine looking weapon!
