CarlB Posted December 15, 2018 Report Share Posted December 15, 2018 Hi. I'm from the capital district region. I was going to buid an Ar15 but ran across a deal for an upper and lower armalite style set for 129. So now im building an Ar10. I'll be using the mean arms mag lock for a fixed mag setup.

Welcome aboard. A diamondback branded blemished upper/lower set. It has the slant in the rear leading me to believe its an armalite pattern. I ordered a lpk from armalite. It was hard to find any lpk that said they were specific to the armalite pattern. Also an a2 rifle length extension with a butt piece that just bolts to the end. I'll likely end up with a dmps pattern bolt and barrel, seems they are more abundant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted December 16, 2018 Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 Looks like Tactical Machining sells many of those to vendors - might be worth contacting them on specific parts. I'd bet they are the Matrix pattern, from the looks of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Upper and lower are different tones, front and rear of magwell arebare metal but sides coated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another viable option to remain compliant is a modified bolt catch, and B.A.D. lever with a removeable magazine. In that configuration, it is no longer considered an autoloader and all other restrictions go away. I am pretty happy with mine set up that way. Welcome from the Hudson Valley.

Hadn't seen that in my search. Already ordered the mean but for the next one I may. I used to live in the Hudson Valley, Rockland and Orange counties.
