So, i have this AR right?
Im wanting to get a shorter upper, throw some sexy furniture on it and perhaps a scope of some type.
What are your suggestions and/or dos and donts of changing the upper on this fucker
Im obviously not much of a gun person, but i still love to shoot when i can, which is usually when a client needs me to destroy a hard drive in a computer.
pic related is the AR in question.

If you want to change that rifle in literally any way short of putting a Cobray 37mm launcher and heat shield on it, you deserve death and no help. Try reddit.

Honestly, if you're gonna throw a short upper on it, you'd probably want it fitted for a collapsible carbine stock, which is a little bit more involved than just taking the fixed stock off. You're basically looking to do more work on a 20" rifle with a fixed stock than what I think you're really willing to do.
My advice to you is to just sell that old Colt Sporter (you could probably make like $1000 at the least, probably more), to someone who'll really appreciate an old A2 rifle like that, and then buy yourself a real nice brand new AR15 that has the features you want out of the box, I suggest the Springfield Saint (pic related), it's at around $800 or so and quite nice, it's set up and ready for the features you're looking for.

short barrels are over-rated, more performance w/ the same ammo with the longer barrel.

All the autists in this thread aside, for the price of new furniture and a new upper you're getting dangerously close to the prices of a new rifle.
Either sell the rifle (don't fucking do this) or fork out the shekels for a new gun.

sell it and buy what you actually want.
don't ruin a nice A2

I don't really see why he couldn't sell the rifle, he wants an AR that's not what this one is, and it's actually pretty valuable so he can sell it and buy the kind of rifle he actually wants.
Someone who pays the money that an old HBar Match goes for is without question going to be someone who appreciates it for what it is. He'll either leave it as it is, or do the minor changes to make it fully A2 style, either which I think both of us will agree with.
