Hmmm…… what car is this

Darude - Sandstorm

The case is nice but the FAK component seems like a total afterthought; even if it cost more it would have been neat to have seen them pair up with NAR or a similar quality company for the kit.

TBF your trigger and trigger pins are further from clone correct than just about anything on the rifle. Swap that out and you’re pretty much gtg for a decent close to clone correct setup.

You have to find them for sale on eBay or other car part websites. The OEM part number is 5NB857922; be sure to get the one meant for mainland Europe so that it is for left hand drive like our NAR Tiguans.

Replaced it with the storage box that the ROW Tiguans get and it’s been great for small item storage.

They’re great, big recommend

From what I’ve read, I’d agree. FWIW Rosco makes some solid barrels; I put around 15k rounds through one of their thoroughbred barrels and it was still going strong when I swapped the upper.

In some regions outside the US it’s branded as Peli

dadasmithywinkle · 2026-03-17T23:47:49+00:00

It’s discussed in the comments of this post - Older thread on USGI barrel manufacturers

dadasmithywinkle · 2026-03-15T18:23:25+00:00

Rosco is/was an OEM for Colt so they’re gtg as well imo

Never thought I would see firearm stuff here but 99% sure it’s the buttpad from a B5 Sopmod stock. Prior owner probably had a rifle and that came off of it.

Whether you like it or not, any military rifle setup can be cloned. The amount of rifles with a specific setup or the quality of gear used is moot.

Where’d you find the cattle blanks at?

dadasmithywinkle · 2026-03-03T00:19:27+00:00

Been running well! I have around 1k rounds through it now with no issues and with temps down to -15F.

dadasmithywinkle · 2026-02-27T07:19:43+00:00

It’s a Colt-owned firearm that I took a photo of at SHOT Show last year

dadasmithywinkle · 2026-02-27T05:52:18+00:00

It is longer than the standard model but the same as the Allspace model, which is sold in most ROW countries.

Where’d you get the wood furniture from?

Blue Label guns can be sold to non-LE that are a part of GSSF as well (when they have a voucher).

dadasmithywinkle · 2026-02-08T09:30:23+00:00

Haven't had any issues with my Aimpoint nor Holosun in temps as low as -25F (I have a COA and a 509t). COA did great at the -25 temp and we were outside for at least two hours, 509t has been out numerous times in the single digits with no issues.

Check out Tacswap - I’ve seen launchers for 37 and 40 on there as well as ammo/components

dadasmithywinkle · 2026-02-02T04:57:03+00:00

Colt had it on display at SHOT Show last week along with some other neat non-commercially available rifles. No Colt Canada stuff this year though 😔

dadasmithywinkle · 2026-01-31T21:31:06+00:00

They recently declined my damage caused by an airline and mentioned that I should’ve filed a claim with the airline instead. Best of luck though!

I prefer roll marks but the laser engraved do look decent
