My stock came loose on my M16 and i had the exact same problem, such a long way down and such a small screw, loads of drill extension bars taped together did it for me.

RIS, LLM and tightbore are on the way to me now.

 

I think my next purchase will be some sort of front grip and a pad for the stock.

 

Anyone advise a grip and know of a place to get the stock pad?

Photos of the build as it stands.

 

Currently it's borrowing all the accessories and the mags from my L85, it also doesn't have a motor in the grip as I've not managed to wire it yet <_<

 

But it's getting there.

 

I've covered the trades with electrical tape for the photos and I managed to screw the barrel extension on after about half an hour of very careful, slowly tightening and untightening of the screw. My hands are in agony lol.

 

After all that, the inner barrel I bought is about half an inch too long and can be seen through the slots in the flash hider, so once I get the original outer barrel cut down to the correct length, the inner barrel is going to be too long. <_<

 

Due for its next skirmish on the 18th.

Ok first of all, this isn't necroposting because it's MY thread!

 

What I want to know is, what are the 1 point slings called that we use with L85s in Afghanistan? I'm pretty sure they're of Magpul design and I know that they consist of two clips, one that fastens to the gun and one that fastens to your rig around the firing shoulder.

 

The actual sling is barely half a foot long, it's basically tethering the gun to your firing shoulder, from what I can make out.

 

Anyone know where I can get one? Links?

 

Reason being, I've got that many things going around my upper chest and neck area, like my comms leads and camelbak... straw...(? Lol.) that can catch on a standard 3 point sling that I just need something that won't get in the way so much.

 

Help appreciated.

 

By the way, the L119 is for sale in the above state, minus the ACOG, grip pod and Emags.

 

It's locked up at the minute and auto was set up wrong so it fired the first shot in semi, so I can't unlock it... Not without stripping the gearbox anyway, and I'll be damned if I'm doing that.

 

It's a G&P M4 Commando base + custom barrel extension, Guarder 7" RIS and it's been rewired to the stock tube... Badly I might add.

LLM is included with the package as well, however the pressure pad is broken and the lens that covers the laser has gone. It still functions fine otherwise though, from what I can remember. It takes two CR123A batteries.

 

The gun's also shooting at around 370fps with the stock barrel and I think it's got a madbull blue rubber in it.

 

It cost me about £390 to put together and the LLM was £70 but I'm open to offers to account for the current condition.

 

I would put this in the guns for sale section, but if no one goes for it I'll hold onto it, so consider it a limited offer.

Got some knee pads whilst I was on there as well.
