[Do these projects ever end?]
Almost done. Here's is the picture of the bag, the cut off grip and the quick release takedown pins. Only thing left is to assemble an emergency repair/cleaning kit and get magazine pouches.
I must confess, I didn't use any of the bags I had talked about above. I found this little two-man tent at target that came in the bag you see. The tent is going in the bug out bag and has it's own nylon pouch. The bag is the perfect size. 20"x5"x5". The gun fits perfectly. A little cardboard stiffner along the bottom and ends and some 1/8" foam pieces for padding rounds it out. It's so handy I want to carry it everywhere. A "man purse"
Since I only have 5" width to play with, I'm hoping to find double mag pouches that I can fold in half (one over the other), or a single width pouch that hold two mags on top each other. Pouches with their own little sling are important since if it becomes necessary to deploy this I want the ability to carry the mags easily without fumbling. Planning on 4 mags, maybe six. I have a nylon cased, AR field cleaning kit and will add a small bag of AR lower pins and springs. That along with the MultiTasker tool should pretty much round out this project.
And yes, the pistol grip is rather small. But I do not intend to fire this one handed and the additional lost grip for the 4th & 5th fingers isn't really missed that much when held properly with two hands. I might look, down the road, at the smaller one that Kevin suggested.
