blue109 Posted May 5, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2018 Oh dear...how cool would a 203 clone be. This always happens :( https://www.brownells.com/shooting-accessories/duty-gear/safety-amp-warning-equipment/m203-37mm-launcher-prod118458.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted May 5, 2018 Report Share Posted May 5, 2018 Daaaaaaamn... That's about as real as it's gonna get. That's LMT-made, right there. I spent alot of time as a 203 gunner, and always wanted my own. I'll tell a story at camp this fall... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue109 Posted May 5, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2018 I qualified a few times with the orange paintball of fury, but never deployed one. That would go sweet with the LMT lower. There was a guy on ARF selling 203 handguards with front/rear sights for $75. already mentally taking inventory of things I can sell to buy this lol. So much for cheap builds :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blue109 Posted September 11, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2018 (edited) Picked up an FN gov profile 1:7 20" barrel for the A2 today :) the color mismatch is going to drive me crazy. Going to have to spray the lower with something to gray it up. Either way....progress. Edited September 11, 2018 by blue109 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

COBrien Posted September 13, 2018 Report Share Posted September 13, 2018 I very much enjoy seeing these retro builds. Got me inspired to build a 605 clone on NoDak receivers... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For $160 each, I was hoping they were good. Just haven't ever heard from anyone who's built on one. Biggest PITA is going to be sending a brand new Colt barrel off to Retro Arms Works to have it cut down to 15". Next biggest PITA will be silver soldering an A1 FH in place. I'd like to be able to remove the FH in the future, if needed, and silver solder seems to be the least difficult way to accomplish that.

I had a pin and weld flash hider removed and a QD for a suppressor put back with pin and weld with no issues, beyond the $40 it cost.

Solder paste, heat paste, and a torch... They spec 1100 F, from 26 USC; "Permanent methods of attachment include full-fusion gas or electric steel-seam welding, high-temperature (1100°F) silver soldering, or blind pinning with the pin head welded over.

98Z5V Posted September 22, 2018 Report Share Posted September 22, 2018 The pin and weld is way easier - Get the hole where you need it (indexed muzzle device), insert pin, touch with welder. Done. It's removable. Just requires a little precision grinding, and a sharp drill bit. Bam, off. I pinned a 14.5" barrel with an AAC Brakeout. Decided I wanted that Brakeout on something else, so I removed it, put on the AAC Blackout in it's place, then pinned that thing to the 14.5". JT is right on the money, it's 1100-degree silver solder. That's a fuk-ton of heat, even with heat-paste to prevent the heat traveling down the barrel.

98Z5V Posted September 22, 2018 Report Share Posted September 22, 2018 You can weld good enough to do this job, with strong sunglasses, three car batteries cabled in series, jumper cables, and a wire coat hanger. Done deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
