Blog, meet Mr. Blasty
Mr. Blasty meet blog. As promised, here’s a pic of the new AR (complete with a bonus pic of the Uncle workbench that I built back when I was nesting):
It’s a 16 inch CAR style with a telescopic stock. Oh, and it doesn’t shoot the standard 5.56MM round. This one is chambered 7.62MM. Got the kit from the guys at J&T Distributing and lower from Doublestar. Got the YHM flip-up rear sight from Global Tactical.
Update: And here’s his older brother, who doesn’t have a name:

OOOOOooooooooooooooooooooooohhhhh…

Jewel trigger and floated barrel?
In the future, all ARs will have two-stage triggers and floated barrels….

Are you building one for each member of your blogfamily too?

I see you’re also using your ammo boxes to give the baby math lessons.

Actually, the box came like that. Good ol’ milsurp. I never really paid attention to it but i don’t think 412 + 899 = 31.

Must be some of that fuzzy math.

If its not fuzzy math, then it may be voodoo economics!

This may be a dumb question, but is Mr. Blasty chambered in 7.62 NATO or 7.62×39?
October 22nd, 2004 at 8:39 am
It’s in 7.62X39. The AK round.

Gotcha. I guess a less lazy man would have clicked on your links to the kits. Alas, I am not such a man.
I did think the coloring of the rounds in the magazine in the pic suggested Russian ammo.
