It's a good match on the stake. I'll pick one up for my next build.
Just a question from a self professed AR snob, but, why did you have to stake a Colt AR? They come with a perfectly good factory stake? Changing stocks does not require removing the tube on an M4 platform. Just wondering for future reference.
Thought of that too, but his endplate really looks stock?I've done quite a few to swap the receiver plate from factory to one which allows for a sling attachment at the rear of the receiver.

Come on guys, this is my first shot at staking. I may have been a bit aggressive.
Switched from factory receiver plate to sling attachment plate back to factory plate. I did not stake when I switched to sling attachment. Used the sling attachment plate (non-staked) for a Pat Rogers carbine class. Castle nut came loose during class. Pat was not happy, hence the "I hope I never have to take this off" staking
When it comes to staking, there's "good enough" staking, and then there's "I hope I never have to take this off" staking.
This looks like the latter. One of the most serious stakes I've ever seen. Truly a thing of beauty.
