Default RETRO AR RIFLES BUILDS

i am not a big fan of the AR RIFLE, but over the years (35 years) i have taken AR parts in trade. last year i started digging out parts and put together a few of them. most of them are retro rifles. lots of the early slick sided rifles.

I kinda like the lighter Retro upper. I got a complete pencil barrel setup but I put it on an A2 upper receiver. I did put the old triangle hanguards on it and found I actually kinda liked them. It makes a nice, light weight, carry around, field rifle.

i also like the retro style. a nice break from the mall-ninja style AR's types with lights and lasers sticking off every rail!
