The Bun Is Out Of The Oven - Oh Lawdy, It's Now A ManBarbie™
I ordered a pistol lower and had that leftover upper that I didn't like for my Dissipator build, so I decided to build me a home defense blaster and have some fun making it. I have the round handguards that I might stick on a seperate upper so I can have both versions. I got a free C7 with the purchase of a Colt optic. I just can't get the authentic stock without a stamp.
As close to an XM177 as I can get without having an SBR.
Which is the group's favorite version?
So, here it is. Three prong early.
And the moderated grenade launcher that was on the later one.
And the 1980's version.

On looks alone, I like the 3-prong.

Oh yeah, the GAU-5, I need to change the handguards and moderator out!

I'd go #2 with the fake moderator... it will help direct the blast forward and be SLIGHTLY less teeth rattling...

Harrington and Richardson. It's available on the PSA site. They will be back in stock soon. They are awesome for a retro build.

That brace is pretty cool, I had no idea they were making such a thing. Looks right at home on that build.

I ran 200 rounds through it today and it ran without the first hiccup.

Yours is too. Retro shorties are awesome. Nobody frowns at the range. Mine is also super duper verboten now that MA went full retard with its gun ban.

Can we get the middle one, but with Arc's slick-side upper?
Nice retros, guys.

The moderated barrel and slick side is available at the Harrington and Richardson section at the PSA website.
This was just an upper I had available. Slick sides are gray and my pistol lower was black.
However a slickside XM177 will have a three prong flash hider. My 603 upper is correct with the moderator. I just don’t like the extra weight.

number 3 was made in the 70's, don't recall the model number but Dad had one and it was on the Form 4 as a Commando, IIRC,
