    Cheap lol, may always be relative, but these are not chump change. I wonder how many are planning budget builds with parts they have laying around. I'm looking to spec exactly what I want for a target and hunting rifle. I'm not expecting it to be cheap, unless in comparison to a Modern Varmint - but then again, it wont be a Modern Varmint.

    Any chance for a 308 version? I am interested in building a 6.5 creedmoor and with the all over the place review of the 102 I am not to optimistic on the platform.

    Few things
    1 MV-S will probably cost the same to build as a MV but you can use parts you have in your Ar-15 and some prefer to put LEGO together rather than buy finished .
    2 Atrs has been making and designing some of the nicest firearms in Canada . Haven’t seen any long range Macabee builds
    3 if you want cheap there’s the 180 clone for sale for 1000

    Myself I’ll wait for an Atrs product and tear apart one of my Ar uppers and swap parts . You’ll be seeing a lot of cheap lowers uppers and barrels under 18.6 on Ee

    Also, some people just want an AR style rifle they can shoot at the pit... for $1600 you can have a completely functional rifle thats essentially an AR and non restricted. Im in that group.

    An MV was just too much $$ and honestly, a waste of quality components for me. I just want to shoot at my property... im not shooting long range or competing or anything. $1000 for the upper and lower is worth it to me. But I really dont want to spend $$ on and wont make use of match grade barrels and $300 hand guards etc.

    I did have a Macabee setup on order but have cancelled that for the ATRS set. Its canadian made from a company who quality you can trust AND... it takes down with a pin, not a screw.

    I have a Macabee on order, bought a BCL102, bought a BCL 102 receiver set and preordered the WK180. I like the looks of the ATRS set but why the high priced MH/MV's why not just do the receiver set that they are pursuing now?? I think I will stick with Macabee, they offered a receiver set first...
