Im Broke AR build.

[DILLIGAF]

Too bad brownell is out of stock on every single bolt carrier/bolt.

Im Glad I got them 4 weeks ago... lol.... I also sent them an email to ship my 2 other orders and cancel the B.O items just in case...

 

[BCboy]

What do you use for shipping from brownells again? I got dinged $23 Parcel Post Air or Priority , what do you use Parcel Post Surface or Small Package Air? also no word on the upper or lower yet ?

 

[DILLIGAF]

I choose Parcel Post Priority, But I put in the comment section " Please ship USPS First class mail for 5.75$ "

Transfer still not approved for my lower. Will call on the 27th see whats up....

Stay true...your budget is easy to achieve without going Norc (yes, I've done it a few times).

Well I will be over by 100$ once I buy the barrel... So im happy with my build cost....

 

[mg4201]

My build cost so far
norc lower 40
norc upper 50
handguards with front ring 15
buttstock and grip 45
bcg 175
still to buy barrel gas tube FSB LPK buffer, tube, spring
I am still up in the air about the barrel I can't decide between an 11.5 with the xm177e2 flashider or a 16 inch with a slipover flashider.

Planning on a lightweight build to do with my son.

ATRS has DPMS govt profile barrels, they can also turn you a custom match stainless barrel in any profile you want although this will cost a few bucks more.

Wolverine aslo has "green Mountian" barrels http://www.wolverinesupplies.com/details/5797/Green-Mountain-AR-15-Barrel-145-556-Nato.aspx

Is it hard to get fun parts over $100 from bronwell?

Just a bit of paperwork.... No big deal....

JUST how much paper work?

By the way, where do you find VLTOR a5 stock kits in Canada? I can't find any Canadian online places that stock (bad pun) it. Only Brownell's, but it's about $225 USD.

just follow these instruction. and Sandy over at Brownells will also let you know what you need

Haven't read the link yet, but thanks for directing me to it.

Some items you don't save that much on, but when the items aren't available its the next best thing... takes about 4-8 weeks to get the items....

Found this in the mailbox today.



YHM 5M1


This is by far the loudest comp I have ever heard. Will bring my AR to life...

 

[DILLIGAF]

Well the last 2 of my orders got shipped today from Brownells. The 1st order was B.O over the detent spring and the 2nd over the 6 post Tube.

Now I see most of the items I did purchase are B.O after the fiasco of the shootings. I even threw in a few 10/22 mags to hit the 100$ limit and now those are B.O as well...

Thats some crazy sh!t. I cant wait to finish this build and go shooting....

 

[BCboy]

What's B.O mean?

 

[ShrtRnd]

What's B.O mean?

Back Ordered
