    On this gun???

    Eat right, don't drink, don't smoke, exercise, get lots of sleep...and die anyway!

    If you want to buy it, say "I'll take it".
    If you want to make an offer, say "I'll take it for $X".
    If you want to practice your negotiating skills by asking if I will accept $X, with no intention of actually buying...say nothing.

    The last update I remember seeing put all the pre orders being filled by late March. So in reality add a month or 2 to that.

    Nobody noticed a chamber designation on their rifles? Wolverine? Gimme a hint?

    Is the chambering not stamped on your barrel?

    If so, I can't find/see it.

    According to the RCMP FRT the calibre should be 'marked on left side of upper assembly' (it is not marked on my early rifle) and 'usually marked on the barrel'. If it is on the barrel you would have to take the handguard off to see it I expect.

    Early rifles were 223 Wylde (I suspect the first couple of hundred but John would have to confirm) -I sent mine back for a re-ream as it had a very tight Wylde chamber.

    All other rifles are now 5.56

    Thanks, only marks on the upper are brass marks from ejection. Nothing visible on the barrel no matter how carefully I check; only a couple of inches are not visible without removing the handguard and I haven't done that yet. I assumed that the designation should be visible without disassembly; I guess not.

    The gun runs very well so far, so this is more a matter of curiosity than anything else. I'll eventually remove the handguard just to satisfy my OCD.

    Yes. The handle is undersized for the matching hole.
