Looks great!

  HAH!  Man that's awesome.  And you're right, he never figured he was special at all.  The crazy part about it is, despite what he thought, he was.  The funeral home was packed last night and it looked like that crowd had been coming and going steadily like that the entire time.

  Yeah and that spirit of his is what's going to make me miss him even more.  A lot of folks are quick to tell you how many bad things are happening to them right now.  Misery loves company.  Jasen's stance was he didn't want to burden anyone with worrying about him all the way up to the end.   They just don't make many guys like him these days.  Too many skinny jeans and feelings worn on their sleeves.

  Group purchases are going to make daddy drink.  Believe it.  :)

And oddly enough the part that stood out in that article was this...     It's sad that they have to report scratches.  I'm sure the soldier would tell you he didn't get hurt by it at all.

  Trade you a mint julep for a mint lower?

  Man, I'm just a guy with a passion for firearms, the Second Amendment, the Constitution in general and America as a whole.  I've also got a really low tolerance for bullsh@t and never claimed to be a people-person.  People looking for a warm and fuzzy "customer experience" are barking up the wrong tree if they expect that from me.   Life's too short to pat insufferable people on the head and tell them how great they are just so they'll like you in return.   But I am fun at parties.

Well, this channel did a good job with the Battle Star Galactica reboot so I'm holding out hope.

I'm building mine with matching uppers, matching limited-edition Magpul furniture, matching mags and matching ammo ... but I am using an off-brand fire selector switch finished in neon green as the pièce de résistance to show my OCD who's boss.

Things like this really are proof to me that only the good die young.  I've got a growing list of people that I feel should surrender their oxygen-rights to cats, dogs and dung beetles, but then there are people like Jasen that the world seriously needs more of.   We'll be saying farewell to him later today and tomorrow morning.

Pardon me for not writing another four paragraph response covering the exact same #### that's already been said by me and others in the thread, thus saving you the time and bother of reading for yourself. Get the sand out of your crack before you post nonsense like that again. No one's here to hold your hand and tell you how awesome you are for asking shit that's already been answered.

Watched the pilot and thought it was pretty good.  The special effects really weren't that bad.  I hope they can steer clear of the cheese and let it become a good series with some grit.

  Very good point, to be honest.

Why the fuck is someone from San Francisco posting on a Tennessee firearms forum?

  When we have information.

  We're just doing lowers.  I have no information about whether this company even manufactures uppers.   That being said, I think people really get too worked up over the notion of matching uppers and lowers when they build an AR because they've been conditioned to think that a BMC upper [or insert brand here] needs an upper from the same manufacturer to somehow be a quality firearm.  None of my ARs have brand matching uppers and lowers.  I built them with the best components possible and selected uppers based on my need, not on what the lower said on the side of it.   I'm really surprised that people aren't just satisfied that someone has taken it upon themselves to offer us this opportunity for billet lowers with the community logo on them.

  Yeah, TDOS is going to get right on revoking Kim Jung Un's Tennessee HCP.  :bored:

Welcome.  We've been known to send some Tennesseans to Texas in years past... always good to welcome one coming back the other direction.

Jasen was a member here, an avid supporter of the 2nd Amendment, a fellow Jeep owner and just an all around great guy.  Some of you knew him and those who didn't really missed out.  It saddens me to report that he succumbed to the battle he had fought against cancer since last year, passing from this life to the next this last Sunday morning.   He died way too young.   If you happened to know him, feel free to PM me for memorial arrangements.  I know his wife, family and friends would love to see the memorial service packed to standing room only.   Thanks.

The software shouldn't have allowed it but IPB has let me down on more important things than this.

  Not here you haven't.  I've never allowed animated GIFs in avatars.  :)

Probably a .300 BLK for myself and probably a 5.56 each for my "kids".  They're both old enough now that they need to have one for their own homes.

Guys, these lowers are as "spec" as anything from countless other manufacturers.  The same parts that work in a Spikes, CMMG, Smith & Wesson, Sun Devil, blah bah ad infinium, lower will work in these.  This manufacturer produces lowers for themselves as well as others.  If we were at liberty yet to say who the manufacturer was, don't you think we'd have posted it by now?   :)   Information will come soon enough.  This thread was just a fact-finding mission to see if enough folks would be interested.

Sorry man. Animated GIF avatars are the second-most annoying things on the Web.  The first being web pages that immediately start playing music when they load.

Animated GIFs aren't allowed in avatars because they are extremely annoying.
