M16A1 (Clone) on $100 a month...

Got the barrel today.  Tabitha now looks like what she'll be.  This is officially a BAG day preview.


Next $100 goes for a bolt carrier group.  Well, $125.

This gun is my answer to the mosin customizers tinkerers who are spending about $100 a month and complaining that they can't afford an AR; because a retro gun is the most expensive path to owning an 5.56 AR there is before you add optics.  Yes, you spend $400 more and it takes four months longer.  But it's achievable in the same manner as the changes to the Mosin that took it from a $150 surplus gun to a $600 sporter.

The No-Dak lower is more expensive than a matched A2 lower and flat-top upper from Aero-Precision.

The Lovely Harvey took the same approach to Valentine.  In nine months each we went from want to gun (technically I'm on month 8).
