One is a 16 inch BN barrel, carbine length gas, mock dissipator. I really like how handy this feels. It got offset sights and now has a 1-4x Optisan Mamba.
The other is a SS 10.5 barrel, troy flip sights in the mail coming, and choosing a mini red dot sight to replace the cheap one I took off a .22 to test out.
It has an adjustable gas block because I plan to SBR and suppress it at some point. For now it lives as a pistol. Although it is just at 26 inch, may be a “firearm” I can put a VFG on.
Like many, back order and availability has thrown off finishing these two builds.
Any charging handle you could want has either been in stock, or in and out of stock depending on where you look.
I am short two charging handles, but that is not the rate limiting step.
I was going to order them with the two BCGs I need.
That option wasn’t available when I ordered two uppers about a month ago. Or at least it didn’t show up when I ordered. Really wish it had, as I’m short two BCGs for those 2 carbines.
