Sisco Posted November 22, 2023 Report Posted November 22, 2023 Used to have an Olympic Arms with an A1 sight, but sold the lower to a friend and I think I sold the upper to Blue if I remember.

I'd go a different direction, brother, seriously. Run a 16" midlength barrel, use a clamp on DD front sight base. More reliable that way, and your lo-pro midlegnth gas block will clear those handguards, underneath. Same look, more reliable gas system. Dissy's are a pain in the ass to get the gas port right, pretty close to maxed out near 0.125" port diameter. Minimum port diameter just to start is 0.105". Then, they're finicky as fuk for ammo. Run a midlength. Dress it up like a Dissy.
Magwa Posted November 23, 2023 Author Report Posted November 23, 2023 This is what i have so far the lower was from a lot of ten lowers sold from a prison in the south it must have been carried for years and years to wear off the finish Like that. Traded JB Matt out of the uppper had the stock....

That will work want to use a flat delt ring and as much as I can to make it as close but yeah if that is more reliable that is the main thing.....
