Ah, D-Ring = Delta Ring assembly. Sorry, my bad.

Yep, you definitely have all the needed info. All that's left is to do it.

My complete 223 rifle was built during the ban period, which I believe is why it was so neutered. Although it's got a 16" barrel, the compensator is actually pinned/welded in place. Instead of taking it somewhere to have them remove the pin, I just bought a Yankee Hill drop in two piece quad rail.

If it weren't an under 1 MOA barrel (without being free floated) with my handloads, I would have scrapped it years ago.

Since the new week has started, I guess I'll order an LPK now. .................Done!

Does your AR have a rifle or carbine gas system?

I ordered a Mega forged lower receiver yesterday. The only dealer I could find that had inventory and didn't require a money order was T&A Armory out of CA.

Jason Steele sent them his FFL information last night.

I should have a complete rifle within a couple weeks.

I picked up the lower receiver from Jason today. He says lots of people have been buying stripped lowers through him lately.

The lower parts kit is supposed to arrive on Tuesday, so I'll take it to the range next weekend.

Very nice can't wait to see it. I am sure you can't wait to have it completed.

Sorry I never replied to your last response to me, I have been busy this week but I did break down and made some upgrades To my AR. I went with the Daniel Defense Omega Quad rail and I dropped the money on a new EoTech 3x Magnifier. I went to the range today, not the best day it was HOT out there but the M4 shot excellent. I rezeroed my EoTech and the new expensive magnifier but I tell you the setup is excellent.
There are some things I need to upgrade still and add but it's getting there.

I will post a couple pics in a few.


Congrats on your build. I may have to build up a 6.8 upper once I'm done with my current setup.

I was at the Parma range this morning also, until a little after 11. I put another 25 rounds through the 6.8 upper and tried the modified op rod in the M1.

I saw your comment in the CBOB for sale thread, and figured you bought a free float rail of some kind. Wasn't quite expecting the 3X magnifier. What mount did you choose?

You should definitely post some pics.
