~ A late report, and a little OT, but this is my new toy. when i got out of the Army (infantry) I found myself with a ton of magazines, harnesses, mag pouches ect. that uncle sam didn't want back. So finally I am able to put all those mags and accessories to use. Since most of my firearms interests is iconic or historical, i decided to go old school.
~ Here is a semi auto version of the Vietnam era XM177E2 Commando. I have a couple minor details to replace, like finding a tear drop forward asst, and i am keeping the current barrel too. The original barrel actually had a moderatorthat isnow considered a class-II item, and the current barrel uses current ammo easily, an acceptable divergence. It does have the correct A1 style lower receiver too (an old stop sign logo SGW / Oly arms- forged), so the external appearances are pretty accurate for the era.
