    I'm looking forward to it.

    If I'm understanding correctly (I've never built an AR before..) I'd only need a lower to finish that upper off, correct?

    When I say lower, I mean a finished lower, or a stripped lower that I built.

    Chris let me know if you need help with the lower. I got most of the tools you need and plenty of spare parts.

    I think after two pages, no one looks at the end and just posts crap. With that said, that right there is a nice build. When are you getting the suppressor?

    I figured as much. :rolleyes: Thank you for the compliment. Next time I'll just start a new thread and let ya'all yell at me about using the search function. :lol2:

    I do, too. I am intrigued by the 300. To me, it seems like an ideal caliber/cartridge. I plan to do something like that later this summer.

    Rusty, that 300 blackout is sweet.

    I'm thinking of getting one built. I do have a question. Is the gas port carbine or pistol? Did you use a low micro block?

    I think you did good Rusty, I just find it depressing since I've stalled on my 300 build right now, aside from that - Nice build! :party29:

    Now go get her dirty, range report is needed. :D

    Have a stripped lower and upper just waiting to do this....

    Problem is, I really want a SBR 300 with a suppressor.....but I totaled up all the parts and the 2 stamps and I'm wondering if its worth it.

    Ammo is no problem, I have 5k .223 brass sitting around that I can trim to spec.

    Decisions, decisions...
