Vurelis 3 Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 I just completed my conversion. Everything went smooth and easy. If anybody is not sure about their abilities in doing a conversion, go for it. This was my first, and it went great. The only issue I ran into was the receiver block for the stock. It wouldn't fit around the pistol grip nut, so I had to grind out the slot bigger. The tapco trigger feels great. It is a huge improvement from the stock setup. I also modified the stock handguard. I have to give thanks to Chile and bohound for the inspiration on the guard. The Truglo red dot works really well and holds a zero. I still plan on adding a flash hider and 30rd mags. Now I just need more ammo! Let me know what you think. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
woodyp 2 Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 What kind of mount is the red dot on? Looks good! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vurelis 3 Posted December 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 It is a CSS side rail mount. It is very sturdy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Vurelis 3 Posted December 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 Thanks for the comments everyone. I was nervous about cutting the handguard at first, but it wasn't hard. I was very happy with the results. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ultimatetaba 1 Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 Looking great. Congrats on the conversion. What'd you use to cut the handguard? A dremel? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vurelis 3 Posted December 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 I used a dremel, chisel, and sandpaper. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
