CHEWBACCA

This is basically a built up rifle using a Spike's Tactical lower (same as Bushmaster, just different markings). I have blocked out part of the serial #, but you can see that it starts with "THUG". Kind of cool. Of course a guy who was shooting next to me at the range came over and asked if I had a license for it. He saw the graphics, which look like a full auto switch ........I would have opted out of these....The rest of the graphics are nice. I especially like the American flag on the RH side. Evidently, these lowers have picked up the name "Chewbacca" because of the spider on the side. If you look at it just right, it looks kind of like the Star Wars creature. You have to sort of give it that Fruedian stare to get the spider to change to Chebacca. In the picture below, the flag graphic appears wavey, that's just my cheap camera. It's a high quality engraving, and looks great on an AR-15.

Not a real good southern GA camo pattern, but heck, if you have this gun, you want to be seen!

No, I did not blow the holes in the range sign. But when no one is around, I get down on my knees with my Chebock-off rifle and peek through the holes. I guess that I'm a wanna-be and this is as close as I get to "operating". Seriously, I shoot at a range with real life heros and sometimes I feel in awe of them in spite of this cool gun.

Today it's just me and the targets. Punching holes in paper has a way of relieving stress. Pictured here is an inexpensive halographic red dot sight. It just says "AIM" on the side. I don't know if that is the brand name or the instructions for use. It has about 4 different reticles to choose from. It is an OK sight for plinking at the range. I have seen almost the exact same sight with a couple of different names on it. One other brand that I have seen is NcStar. It was identical. The object of a red dot sight is to quickly "put a bead" on close targets. In the case of an AR-15, that would typically be bad guys. I believe that the dot on this particular sight would be too small for shooting big targets up close. I would rather have 4-8 MOA. This dot is about 1 MOA.

It is extremely difficult to capture in a digital image with a hand held camera, but here is the co-witnessing picture. The red dot lines up right on top of the front sight post.

		Here is Chewbacca waking up from slumber in a nice safe bag. Color coordinated of course, what else would you expect with a rifle this sexy? You have heard of M4-gery. Well this is a Chewbock-off. As in a "copy" of the special issue AR that Spike's Tactical did on a special run. It looks as good as the real ones and it's a fun shooter.

M1S upper, Magpul stock and YHM flip up sights. Magpul also makes the matching magazine. I didn't run any ammo through this magazine because I didn't want to get it dirty!
