Finished my 9mm Build!

[WP_Plinker]

After a few years of patiently waiting for sales, I finally managed to put together my 9mm AR. All parts are PSA made excluding the Thordsen stock and the optic. Got the gunsmith over at Blueline Tactical to render the upper featureless. I think it came out quite well.

Nice, what was the total cost in the end?

I have no idea who made the optic to be honest lol

How was the thread protector attached?

How was the thread protector attached?

I am gonna guess there are threads inside the cap (female threads) and the end of the barrel has threads in the outside (male threads).

By truned the cap clockwise onto the barrel the cap will screw onto the barrel.

It is a very common attachment system that is used on thousands of applications.

Feel free to inquire more if this explanation was not thorough enough.

I'm guessing this isn't your first gloryhole.

You knew where I was going. I'm curious about the gunsmith's opinion that did the work. I know what I would do and I think I know what you would do. My question to the OP stands.
