For the longest time, I've never really cared for any f the Veitnam era AR's. But, after seeing Troy's GAU-5 rifle, I kinda really want one now. I don't really know why, but I really want one of the GAU-5 repro guns. and now I'm hearing that colt is going to make one as well. Only thing that would make it perfect is if someone put out a good reproduction scope from that era.
does anyone else feel the same about these rifles? also, how can I find one outside of ordering it directly from Troy?
What is the white thing on the sight?

not really sure.

It's the original reflex sight
You weren't supposed to look through them, but use the both eyes open method
The dot is transposed to the other eye

That sounds amazing

makes sense. It's similar to how we got trained for shooting at night with PVS-14's.
I hadn't heard about the Colt. Google yields nada, explain?

if you have a reddot now, just tape over the objective end- there you now can experience it for yourself.

There's a thread on /k/ already
It was announced at the NRA show

Sexy as fuck but build one yourself, both Colt and Troy offerings manage to be awful in their own ways.

How so?
Obviously Troy is expensive and hires shitbags who shoot women in the face because they want to

What do they call those aluminum adjustable stocks? Thanks in advance

I've literally been thinking about it. found repro flash hiders for up to $130. been deciding if i want to dish out for a A1 stripped upper or use my Flat top stripped upper and do another Frankenstein build.

the Troy's are 1100-1200. quite reasonable I think.

CAR stock

I think they just call them CAR-15 style stocks. I think Essential Arms does one still.

More of those Info graphics?

sorry, I found it while perusing google images on GAU-5's
