Picked up one of these and a PTAC M4 rifle kit to build.

Now the wait for it to ship begins.

Good deal

Ordered a LBK from them on Monday got it yesterday. I've never had issues with their shipping but it has gotten even faster IMO.

Lower receiver and parts kit extra

Thanks, i don't need one but ordered anyway

Mine showed up this morning, UPS guy just left it all on the front porch again. Barrel looks really nice. No chrome lining but it's not hatefully heavy and looks well made. PTAC rifle kit is OK, the upper doesn't lock up into my lower as well as my $35 Rockethub sourced one so I may swap to it during the build.

It's nitrided, it doesn't need chrome lining.

Yeah, I would generally try to stay away from the PTAC stuff myself. It's a less quality line that's made for them by another manufacturer.

Ah, thought the nitride was an outer coating, good stuff. Spent some time last night mocking up my carbine and my sons M-lok rail rifle length and found his buffer tube wouldn't screw into his 80 lowers lower receiver but mine would.

Yeah, the nitriding treatment is actually similar to the finish that Glock uses on their stuff, and it ends up coating all of the surfaces of the barrel. Theoretically it will lead to a more accurate barrel than a chrome lined one because the treatment is deposited more evenly over the interior surfaces of the barrel than a chrome lining would be.
