LVOA/SAI inspired M4 build
16 September, 2016, 17:21
I love the look of both of these aeg's so decided to do a build that incorporated a bit of both.
Parts list so far:
Angry Gun 16.2" WCRS rail
FCC style "blackout" outer barrel kit in gold
Vltor receiver
Magpul CTR stock
Dream Army stock tube
Modify Torus complete S100 gearbox
Magpul clone pro mbus
Dytac top hat flash hider
Prometheus purple hop rubber
Modify hop unit
G&P SAI gold faux bolt
Still need:
Magpul miad grip
motor
gas block
inner barrel (probably Prometheus)
gold trigger (possibly, don't want to overdo the gold)
trigger guard
hand stop kit
high mount micro T1
Pics so far:

Re: LVOA/SAI inspired M4 build
so the postie brought a few bits, still waiting on a few things though.
Ideally I want this G&P receiver but i can't find it sold separately, only as part of a fully built rif. If anyone see's one separate let me know!:

The golden cocking handle is a combination of the standard G&P handle
and this:

which where i bought it from, direct from the manufacturer, which is where i also got the gold fire selector, anti roll pins and trigger.
Basically i took the catch off the full gold handle and changed it over for the G&P standard black one so it stands out as an accent.

Re: LVOA/SAI inspired M4 build
Well I can't use this receiver as the mag well doesn't fit my pmags in so I've managed to source a non traded g&p mots receiver. If I want to add SAI trades what would be the best method? I know they usually water transfer them on g&p receivers, should I go with engraved or attempt water transfers? (Or is there a better way?)

Re: LVOA/SAI inspired M4 build
If i were you bro i would get it professionally engraved, nothing wrong with you taking the lower receiver to a trophy engraver and asking them to engrave the Salient logo into it plus other trades.
They might charge you an arm and a leg (depending on who you chose) and you might find it looks better than the original.
If you do get it engraved show us your results, be good to know.

Re: LVOA/SAI inspired M4 build
I'll look into it once parcelfarce release the receiver. They've had it 10 days and not bothered to notify me about the customs charges yet.
There's a few engravers locally but i'm not sure how they'd react to me bringing in an m4 receiver haha

Re: LVOA/SAI inspired M4 build
Looking good, out of interest how do you find the Salient bolt cover? I like the look of it but it never sits right in my Upper receiver, if i pull back the bolt handle it kind skews funny and i have to push the bolt hand forward to help it close.

Re: LVOA/SAI inspired M4 build
I think they all do that regardless of brand (apart for EBB aeg's as it's usually fixed to the blow back mech). Not much you can do about it, in most of my aeg's I leave it out as it's annoying haha.
I suppose you could possibly glue/epoxy it to the plastic arm that draws it back so that it doesn't tilt and get stuck.

Re: LVOA/SAI inspired M4 build
Finally splashed the cash on a g&p sai receiver but it needs a taper outer barrel so the gold one has to go.
suppose I could paint the new one gold.
