LWRC Ultra Compact stock https://www.lwrci.com/p-361-uciw-ultra-compact-stock.aspx

Thanks! I appreciate it.

I've been slow getting pics, but I did get my frankenbeast finished a month or two ago. I ended up going with:

Ohio Ordnance lower, pre-Oct '13!
CMMG LPK
PSA milspec buffer tube & stock
PSA premium M4A1 profile upper
AIM v2 nitride BCG
BCM midsize CH
Troy fixed iron rear sight

It feels good, dry fire and such smooth. I need to get it out to the range, zero it in and see what we've got.

I got the same upper and it shoots very well. I ended up using a heavier buffer as my brass was ejecting about 1 o'clock. After installing the H3 buffer the brass now ejects about 4 o'clock.

Some refinements on my varmint build

I posted pics of this rifle several weeks ago. It doesn't look all that different now but there's been a few upgrades. You can see the new lower (Thank you Chuck @ Tylers!) I assembled for it with the Gadsden logo, which has always been one of my favorites, and the Magpul trigger guard and MOE+ grip. But the important difference is on the inside. Thanks to this deal, it's now running a Geissele SSA-E trigger, and man is that thing SWEET!

Pegasus also sells a LPK with the same trigger but standard grips and guard for $25 less. I was really pleased with their service compared to that other company whose name starts with a P. Shipping was a very reasonable $6.50; I ordered it on 1/6/2015, it shipped the next day, and I received it on 1/9/2015. That's darn good in my book.

Haven't been to the range yet with the new setup but I'm looking forward to some real improvements. The last picture is one of my better 5 shot 100 yd groups with the original trigger and run of the mill ammo. With the Geissele I'm expecting it will tighten up and I'll be a lot more consistent too.

Did some updating on my impulse purchase.

308 16" suppressed RECON.

Before:

After (ready for Heavy Metal 3 Gun):

Fortis 14" SWITCH Rail
Wilson Combat 3 Gun Trigger
Aimpoint PRO
Raptor Ambi Charging Handle
Norgon Ambi-Catch Mag Release
MagPul Thick Recoil Pad
Heavybuffer.com 308 Heavy Buffer
SJC Titan Comp
Taran Tactical 31+1 Mag Extensions
Impact Weapons Components Sling Quickdetach


The Fortis rail makes it feel like a different gun. I love it.

I'd like to shoot some matches in Heavy Metal division this year.

Very nice! How do you like that stock? Considering getting one for a future build.

Love it, especially on the SBR. I'd compare it to my CTR stocks which I like just as much. Small footprint, tight lock, very similar cheek weld.

Awesome, good to know. Guess that settles it as that will definitely be the stock I use in my next build.

Made it. I've got a materials list if you want it.

GREAT patches, lol.

Sweet SBR. How complicated was it to make that awesome sling?

My first AR build - Anderson lower, PSA upper with DD Omega-X rail. Only thing I lack is the BCG and charging handle.

I'm concerned about the backup sights. They are ARMs 17Ls, but they don't open 90 degrees. They're about 80-85 degrees. They have silver springs, so I don't believe they are Chinese knockoffs.

Sorry for the subpar iPad photos. Here are some better shots...

And, yes, I moved the rear sight up a few slots after the pic.
