Ammo seems to be your department, Mr. Reloader.

Tough room!

[TGO David]

I am going to try to have it sighted in before the 19th. The really crappy thing about this is that my schedule is literally packed every weekend day leading up to the 19th.

[Guest dwrd]

Nice looking gun. Someday...

[R1100R]

That is one ugly rifle...........................give it to me.

[Guest eyebedam]

I like it. As soon as my money gets right I'm def gonna do a SBR. It looks great. When are you gonna let me shoot it.

I would be pleased to help you there!

That thing is a dream! I don't even want to know what it cost!

BTW - I saw the selector markings, but I assumed it was a semi? Is that just a Spike's thing?

[BimmerFreak]

Great looking SBR David. Congrats!

Nice SBR! :up:

[Guest VolDaddy]

Really nice. It gives me some ideas for my incomming SBR from Hero Gear.

[TGO David]

As soon as we get into the new year, I'm going to build our other AR but probably just stick with the standard 16" bbl on that one. I can't wait, though. Building them is as much fun as shooting them!

If I have it dialed in by the 19th, I won't have any problems letting people put rounds down range with it.

I would be pleased to help you there!

See above.

I have a spreadsheet somewhere that kept track of the ongoing cost earlier in the project. I'm afraid to look at it as I stopped updating it somewhere mid-build. My wife reads the forum too much.

Yeah the full-auto pictograms are a Spike's thing. It sure would be nice to have that third firing position, but I like my cornhole the way it is right now and don't care much for Club Fed.

Great looking SBR David. Congrats!

Thanks man! I have to confess, you started this madness when you let me shoot your full-auto SBR at the range that day.

[Peanut15]

Tungsten - congrats I have a question for you. I like the LMT rear sight that you have. I went to LMT's website and it said the sight was for the AimPoint. Could it also be used with the Eotech?

[Reservoir Dog]

Yes, it will work with EOTechs. I have them on my AR w/EOTech 552. Works just fine.

I don't see anything on webpage for the LMT rear sight that says it is for Aimpoint.

[fizik]

Sweet, I was wondering how much longer your CQBR build would be. Some of you guys are really making me think I want to go down the SBR road.

[Almond27]

Nice SBR

[Guest clutepc]

That is great, can't wait to see it up close!
