#colt 733

I always loved the movie Heat and particularly the Colt Commandos used in this scene. I always wanted a Colt Commando.

And I finally built a clone. I collected the various parts over the years, took care of the paperwork, and finished putting it together today. This gun has a Colt lower with a A2 carry handle upper and a 5.56 11.5” 1:9 twist barrel.

I’ll test fire it this weekend. The only question is whether I should wear a suit to the range.

I sent off two barrels to ADCO to have FSB’s installed. Also had them remove the flashing and bayonet lug off the A1 FSB.

Top one (11.5”) will be a Colt 733 build, should have that assembled in the next day or so.

Bottom one (10.3”) will be a Phase Replacement (28th EOD) clone build. Waiting on the DD Lite FSP rail to arrive, and still need to find an XPS3-0 with the older logo.
