I don't know the barrel manufacturer, but it was assembled by a company in Nevada called retro rifles

Sooo, 10" barrel and flash hider puts it under 16" overall?

No, this is definitely under the legal length. It would make for an authentic 177 or commando build as an sbr, or just an awesome pistol.

That's right... you can make yourself a pretty close to "authentic" CAR15 (or XM177/Commando) that's legally a "pistol" w/o having to go through the whole SBR process and still have some "cool guy" kit!

For example:

Gen-1 KAK Blade (needs an Allen wrench to adjust LOP)

Gen-2 KAK Blade (tool-less adjustable LOP)

It also looks like you can still hang a bayonet on that A1 upper because of the extended flash-hider.

Hope that helps to inspire someone to buy this awesome looking upper! :s0155:
