Finally got an email that the replacement end mill has been packed and will be shipped tomorrow.
Meanwhile, thanks to friends and forum members, the other parts are coming together. Picked up a slightly used 20" pencil bbl with a very nice set of triangular hand guards yesterday from kanaka. A guy on a machine-gun forum I've been a member of for many years is sending a very nice D stock and a duck bill flash hider. I decided to make my Mattel similar to the Mattel Marauder toy M16 with its duck bill flash hider since Sawman posted that picture. Got a nice M16A1 upper with parts coming from a guy in Michigan. Brownells is suppose to deliver an A1 buttstock screw and aluminum black Wednesday.
