I like it, but it is hard to bench shoot it. It does provide a good support if firing standing or kneeling. I can tell that this one will be easy to bump fire if I wanted, I have a TAPCO G2 FCG with a light trigger pull

VERY nice job. I almost hate you! I'm still in the rivet removal stage of my Clearview Investments, AMD - this is the newest looking unit I've seen. Anyway, whose wood did you use on your your build? If you refinished the original how did you come up with the correct parts count. I always though that the wood was one of the easiest and least expensive changes.Later

I ended up using KVAR imported wood. it didnt change my parts count but even if it did my us parts were
reciever
gas piston
magazine followers for all my mags
tapco FCG (3 parts)
rear pistol grip

so even if putting wood on changed the count to 17 parts, I still have only 10 for the 10 or less game. I figured better to play it safe than to play hot dog catcher in prison if you know what I mean

Great job! looks like you snadblasted the receiver then painted it. Tell me about the rivets that you used for the front trunnuion, they look really hefty, or are they 10/32 bolts?
