shootin the breeze
Missed it by that much
Gents,
I just got divorced from an anti. Then Newtown happened. I'm waiting for my first purchase to clear (26JAN). I bought a LE6920 at the Howard show which is waiting to wait. Of course my collector paperwork was sent in 28JAN and I'm still waiting for that. I put a deposit down on two of the Engage lowers (will get more if the paperwork comes through soon). Rusty Shackleford will start work on my NFA trust this week and once it's back, I will get busy on NFA buying.
So, here's my question. Knowing the above, what would you do with the lowers? Would you complete the lower and buy a complete upper and stick with standard lengths, maybe building a SPR out of one? Would you try to SBR one or both? Would you do custom builds of both since there's a standard LE6920? Finally, regardless of length, etc, what calibers would you choose? I was considering .300 blackout and 9mm or .40. Also, I'd like to suppress them too (hence the trust).
Let's hear your ideas. Money is an object but I can spend a few thousand. Depending on how the law goes and what's available (suppressors and threaded barrels) I can deal with maybe 8k total to spend before the ban hits.
