My CQB rifle is basically a Colt AR with a few modifications: I swapped out the upper receiver for an LMT monolith - 16" barrel. The trigger is Compass Lake 2-stage. I have an Aimpoint Comp M3 sight on a LaRue mount with Troy BUIS. The stock is Magpul CTR and the grip is Magpul MAID with modified trigger guard. On the front end there's a Surefire M900A vertical foregrip with a LaRue QD mount mod. Finally it's got a Specter 3-Point sling in GG&G adapters.
here's a pic I took today (I processed the photo a bit for dramatic effect). My front BUIS is being sent to me.
My next project is going to be another AR built from a Mega stripped lower - this time I'm using a POF gas piston upper (it just arrived after waiting 4 months). It's going to have the RRA 2-Stage trigger. Like the other rifle it'll have a Magpul MAID with the modified trigger guard, but the stock will be the ACE USSOCOM stock. The optics will be EoTech 553 (just came in) and on the front I'm trying to get a LaRue Battlelight with a Troy vertical grip ... but that part might change.
The funny thing is ... If you met me you probably wouldn't guess I might be a "gun-nut." I'm an articulate, responsible, nice guy who doesn't project neuroses - I'm great with kids and I love people. As a physician I believe I'm making the world a better place every day - and I love my job. I like guns because when I was a kid a cop and his partner befriended me and taught me a lot about personal responsibility by teaching me the proper handling and maintenance of firearms. I still have cop friends to this day and take courses in small arms tactics ... just to keep me well rounded.
But my first line of defense is still my border collie, Albert. I love him to pieces!
