Been ordering parts and pieces to build 2 rifles. One is going to be a SBR in 300AAC the other is a 223 Wylde rifle. Well the 300 is still coming in slowly but the parts do trickle in. The son wanted the 233 Wylde and didnt like any we found in stock.. all 8 or 9 of them LOL.. So I ordered a basic upper then added to that.. well believe it or not ordered it 1 week ago and it and all the add ons got here today. I ordered it from my usual supplier and the story was averaging 3 week wait on their suppliers.. No problem on waiting at least they let me order everything on one order.. So he delivered me some gravel and I told him I got the text saying it was out for delivery thru UPS, had to make him go back to his real job at least until he was let loose by the boss LOL..
I had it pretty much broke down and most of the parts swapped for what he wanted when he got back out.. he hit the bus stop just ahead of the bus so the kids rode in with him.. I was worried he might have a cow over the extras parts and the fact he paid extra for his wants. The only thing I dont like is he put an A2 flash hider on it.. ok its nice but not my cup of tea. His thoughts are he can shoot it with that for now and then when comp gets here it will only come off for cleaning anyway.
Parts break down as it sets now-
upper receiver with BGC
16in 223 Wylde SS barrel with diamond flutes
16in M-lok handgaurd
low profile steel gas block
carbine gas tube
We did add a laser sight so he can shoot it today LOL...
We havent finished his lower yet so its wearing his sisters borrowed lower assembly. He really likes her trigger and ask about just trading her out and building his lower for her.. I did my best crayfish crawl as fast as I could - no way am I getting in the middle of a fight with her.. I told him get ready to dole out more cash if he wants a trigger like hers LOL I didnt have anything to do with it - she bought it and installed it on her own. I did watch over he as she did but I did not help. Anyway got a picture of the as is now rifle to post..
Biggest thing in this build is the quickness of having it all in my hands.. Now it will be camo it next LOL....
