Let the sickness begin!

My wife thinks I'm a dork for taking pictures so I usually do it in the bedroom where she doesn't know I'm doing it.

She does now!

OK provide the link for that Hand guard, I love it. They have anything longer than that I am thinking about building a 20 or 24 in rifle for more long range application.

Unfortunately 15" is the longest they offer. If you look close, its actually made by Samson so I don't know if they have anything longer. Here's the link to their site:

Thank God she doesn't come on here much anymore. Lol

Finally got my buffer tube and stock!

So I finally got the buffer tube and stock (Thanks Joe Bob!) and thought I would put them on. Still a dry fit, but its time to do the final.

Oh, the second pic is for those who liked my bedding!

Awesome! post some pictures... I love seing what everyone else has done with their builds.

Right now I'm at a stand still because I've been trying to find a place where I could dimple the barrel and pin and weld the BC on.

Scott's does that. I'm still waiting on my H&K style stock and my smith is cutting my new barrel and fitting a new FSB on it. Four weeks on both

Where is Scott's?

That sucks you have to wait that long, but I'm sure it will be worth it!

At least it's going to take less time than getting a regulated firearm up in MD I should pick up another couple of stripped lowers JB.

Those look nice

I hear ya! I wish I had some extra money to pick up a few more lowers myself.

Thanks!

I know, I'm resurrecting my old thread but I am finally going to finish my rifle! Thanks to the furlough and the availability of parts, it got pushed off till now.

I'm picking up my barrel and upper tomorrow from Bollingers (great people!). The only things left is to set the gas block, torque the barrel nut, install gas tube, reinstall handguard, and torque the castle nut. I'm sure I'm missing something...

So my final questions...
Where can I get rocksett? I know I'll need some blue loctite for the other areas. Is there any other lube, grease, loctite, etc that I will need?

And Jrumann... I'm calling on your assistance. Let me know if your still up for helping this noob!

Permatex thread locker Green is available at Walmart or an auto parts store. I'm told that Permatex bought Locktite and that thread locker Green is the same product as locktite 290. I'm sure someone else will chime in on this.

Thanks! I'll have to look into permatex green.

Rocksett anyone? Is there any place that carries it local? I'm going to need it for my gas block.

 

[cyclrcr]

Ok, just need to torque the barrel nut and castle nut!

God I'm going nuts not being able to shoot my rifle. Literally I'm not sleeping well in anticipation! Did anyone else feel this way with their first build?
