I really considered adding unanodized/raw lower in as well, but a .308 AR-10 build is realistically 2-3 years away for me. A 2nd build would probably be several years further out and I just can’t justify that.
I may regret it if I am not allowed to buy them one if these days, but at least I’ll have the one and I’ll just hope they keep their status and/or one more than to panic buy a couple of.
My neighbor kicks himself all the time for not having picked up an M1a before the ban. I at least have the excuse that I didn’t own firearms before 2014. Trying to learn from his/others mistakes as it were.

I picked up my matched upper and lower today. It’s so big (that’s what she said)!
I just wish I could build it right away. I may have accidentally hit buy on a pair of Mkdway stoner enhanced lower triggers and a “essentials” LPK and magpul MOE grip.
The sale was too good to pass up. And in fairness, one of the triggers, the LPK and grip are going on an AR-15 lower to move my 6.5 Grendel build closer to the finish line. Still need a hand guard, upper parts, buffer tube bits and stock. Have barrel, stripped upper, stripped lower, BCG and 18” flutted HBAR Barrel.

What brand?
I have an Aero M5 and think it's really nice. The only thing that's a little quirky is the gas tube. They say it doesn't need to have the barrel nut timed, but it does.
Not a receiver set, but the whole rifle. S&W M&P 10 Sport for under $900 ...

I believe this build is mostly following the DPMS pattern. Certainly uses those types of mags.

At least you'll be able to do it, and you got a good deal on the upper and lower. The tortoise always wins

I received my 80% AR308 lower and jig a few days ago and the LPK arrived today. Time to begin my foray into 308.
Yup, that’s what I cared about, getting out ahead of possible MD stupidity.
Now I’ll be slightly less panicked if I am panic buying in a few months (still considering picking up another one, or hell even two, and a couple/few AR-15 lowers before Jan).
Kind of just have to evaluate my time and finances.
I am trying to be a good boy and stay away from the Depot section and off all my favorite window shopping sites till Black Friday.
At a minimum I need a safe (residential securitized container) before I build or buy anything else. My locker is full (okay, I can squeeze one more non-scoped/pistol grip long gun in it I put it in upside down). Part of my Black Friday purchasing plans.
