Hey, you guys still doing your own ARs? A friend shot my Engage AR and loved it, and his wife wants to get him his very own for father's day (have to pry mine from my cold dead hands). If not, I told her you all would be able to help her regardless.

Per their most recent instagram post they are down to their last case of lowers.

I don't know who is a supplier for them (stripped uppers and lowers) but all I have seen have come together well with no fit issues.

Do they no longer have the billet sets like they were doing in 2013? I have 2. Great fit and finish.

That's one of the best looking AR's I've ever seen. That handguard + top rail is incredible.

I have a couple of their billet sets and they are my favorites. Fit and finish are superb and great looking too.

I love my Engage billet sets. Built one of them out in Lord Chad's class and all of the specs were spot on.

Thank you. Handguard is a VLTOR CASV-M. The top rail clamps on to the rail of the upper and is very rigid. I have the EXACT same rifle in 5.56. This is 300 BLK.

AAC 300 BLK upper on an Engage Kensington, MD lower. It was my first build. It wears an Aimpoint PRO red dot now. The cheap Bushnell served its purpose and was replaced as soon as I could afford to.

That's a very clever setup. SBR all the way! None of this pistol crap

Picked up 2 today as I was in Rockville. In and out in 45 mins.. including the wait to get in.

I did notice a difference between this batch and a couple I bought several years ago. The front of the magwell on my current lowers has a wavy texture where these don't. They are smooth.

Finish looked similar and the markings look the same so who knows. I'd be curious to see who the supplier is.

There was no 7 day wait? Hopefully they have one in stock for me.

Always a 7 day wait. They've got 30 left according to the guy that helped me. $85 each.

They had a few Engage ARs on the wall that were $1300. Don't know what components they use so don't know if it's justified.

Awesome thank you for the info, was going to call and see what the price is in the morning. Appreciate that you found out more about how many are in stock!
