Did you add the "Property of U.S. Gov" to make it sound better when the Gov has it's so called "buyback" program?I took one step forward and two steps back on my M16A1 project. I received my parts back from Cerakote and all looks great except.... I don't like the color. It looks too new to me, some rifles were made in grey as well as black. The grey I chose just looks too new, I've decided to just Cerakote it myself in black. I've got the Cerakote and gun ordered so just another 7 day delay before I can get this rifle finished. At least I got the laser engraving done.
Here's the receiver after laser engraving. I had the property of US Gov and auto added.
I'm actually not feeling too bad about changing the color, the receiver is original and had a rough life, I found quite a few spots that I missed when I cleaned it up. I fixed all the damage to the top of the receiver and after Cerakote it was perfect, now that I've corrected the other spots it should be a beauty when re-coated in black.
I also bought a lapping bar and lapped the face of the receiver where the barrel seats. I think this was a worthwhile effort as the barrel seats super tight now. Hopefully I can get this baby together and ready to shoot in a few weeks.

So Carter’s Country finally has SOMETHING that is reasonably priced?
I suppose there must be a first time for everything.
