For those who read my posts in the Semi-Auto, pump section https://thefiringline.com/forums/showthread.php?t=603060 I have decided to go ahead and use a barreled upper (not complete upper), and an Andersen stripped lower to build a .223 reminiscent of the Car 15's of the Vietnam war era. I don't want to mess with attaching the barrel, but assembling a lower, butt stock, carry handle [SIC, rear sight support], and lower kit, etc. will keep me busy this Winter.
I do have a couple of questions though...I see barreled uppers for sale on the internet with what looks like a bayonet lug. Are those lugs fully machined to accept a bayonet?
Can anyone post a site where they sell a mil spec (Vietnam era), Carbine Butt Stock?
I thank those who gave me input on my original post and those who will lend a hand on this thread.
