    StoneHendge's first 6.5 build - the Ghillie Gwyllgi

    Or GiGi for short- all of my guns with character have names and this one certainly will certainly have character. Claudia is the only other girl in my safe so hopefully she doesn't get too jealous.

    Almost all parts have been ordered except for whatever I may have forgotten and a charging handle. I was simply too fatigued to decide on one (and the color) after giving my bank account a workout the past two days. Also a thanks to everyone her - reading through threads certainly helped me make some decisions

    Aero Precision COP M4 Minimalist FDE monolithic upper receiver / handguard
    Aero Precision forged FDE lower receiver
    Alexander Arms 16" lite barrel (currently 2-3 week wait)
    Alexander Arms Millenium compensator
    SLR Sentry 7 clamp on adjustable gas block
    CMMG gas tube
    Alexander arms bolt assembly
    Aim NiB bolt carrier
    POF 4.5 lb drop in trigger
    Wilson Combat lower parts kit
    Timber Creek oversized skeletonized trigger guard FDE
    Hogue over molded beaver tail grip - Ghillie Earth
    Hogue over molded stock - Ghillie Earth
    Kaw Valley Precision buffer kit with 4.3 oz tungsten buffer

    Once she's close to done I'll be getting her a FAB Defense T-Pod G2 in FDE (fore grip, bipod and 378 lumen light in one neat and tidy 13.75 oz package)

    Plan for the optic as of now is to mount the 2-7 32mm Burris Scout Scope that currently resides on my 308 Ruger Gunsite Scout and see if that will let me see as far as she should be able to shoot. If it works, I'll mount it on a one piece DNZ Freedom Reaper.

    Also ordered some C Products 10 round mags given that I live in the capacity challenged Republic of Colorado. I did buy a bunch of grandfathered 25 round mags before the ban went into effect, but I have been unable to find where I put them

    I think that covers it. The COP arrives Thursday and more work for the delivery persons Friday. The hardest wait will be for GrabaGun to get me the hogue ghillie earth grip and stock to see how it goes with the aero FDE. The black in the stock should also tie in real well with the black compensator, flashlight, bipod legs, scope and rings.....

    So, what would that translate as: Black Guard Dog?

      That would be my POF P308. Just a rifle with attributes of the mythological creature with a color scheme to blend in with the terrain here in the mountains of CO. Essentially an AR scout attempt that breaks a few "rules" but should do almost everything better
