So my most recent venture has been in the M1A category. When I bought my pre-ban a few months back, it came with a tackle box of USGI parts...what else was I going to do but plan another rifle build! Fast forward, i'm trying to decide which parts to use for my scout squad and I see that I actually have two unitized gas systems. One is welded (USMC Mod) and the other is screwed and welded...but from what I've come to understand, the options to unitize the gas system are welded or 'screwed and glued.' I'm not sure if this is some type of hybrid setup, but I'm trying to figure out which one will be the best for a CQB Scout Squad, and which will be better for the 'match' rifle i'm planning on building next.
Any ideas?
