How ya gonna build your TGO billet lower?

[bubbadavis]

Got some news coming in the next few days...

 

Stay tuned for updates.

 

Tease!

[StPatrick]

Sorry, but you won't be doing .243 Win from an AR-15 lower. Have to start with AR-10 one. (cartridge much too long).

 

- OS

 

Realized that right after I hit the post button.  "Sometims Im and id10t."

Sorry for the bump if I missed it: Did I miss the news?

I am looking forward to these they will be damn nice!

[BigK]

I'm on pins and needles. This will be my first build.

Do you have intel? I haven't seen anything on who will build it or what it would look like.

The best intel is that the guys driving this are exactly the ones I would let pick out a complete rifle for me. I haven't seen much of MacGyver lately. He may be in a work frenzy right now.

Gotcha. I hadn't been following the other thread so I wanted to make sure I didn't miss anything. I'm in no great hurry. I already built a rifle on a different lower last month and will simply switch out lowers when this one comes in... or I will build another one which would officially make me an AR hoarder.

[mikegideon]

It may be awhile before I build these. I have already outgrown my safe. There will be some bloody domestic violence in my house if I try to upgrade it, too. It will turn the redhead liberal pacifist into a pure redhead :).

Have we heard anything on a time frame for this?

Patience. One does not simply build a 6.5 Grendel overnight. :usa:

[Guest Keal G Seo]

Well glad I didn't miss the news. Back on topic of the OP: I think I am going to do a standard 556 build on this BUT if what was said earlier about this maybe being marked with the TGO logo I have been considering once I get it in hand I am going to get all parts for it through TGO and make it a true TGO build.

[Photoguy67]

As to the original op, I'm really thinking hard on a sbr 300 blackout.

I am sworn to secrecy, but they will be damn nice!

Me too. Again, I wouldn't expect anything less from the guys that are putting this together.

Psssst! I've got 100 Lincolns with your name written all over them.  :shhh: 

[MacGyver]

Well... We've had a setback on this.

The company that originally approached us about doing it has backed out. I'm frankly pretty glad that the owner of the company showed his character now before we sent him a $25,000 check. We were literally about to open up the payment page for everyone to fulfill their orders when they backed out. So, better now than after we started collecting people's money.

This should just be a temporary setback. We've had a couple other manufacturers reach out to us after seeing the interest. We'll see if we can't line another one up.

I'll keep everyone apprised.

[mikegideon]

They probably did you a favor.

Should we know to keep an eye out for a certain company with questionable character?

[mikegideon]

Almost makes you think about going to somebody like LMT.

[TripleDigitRide]

Not a bad option. How 'bout CMT, from right here in Tennessee? Then again, I don't even know if they make their own lowers.

[mikegideon]

LMT definitely makes their own, and is in the business of private labeling for others.

I knew LMT made their own, but I'm not sure about CMT.
