Spectre Ballistics Light Practical Carbine - NR Receiver Set

Any updates/pics? :D

We are currently waiting for tools to do the upper and carrier.

We have the first operation on the lower done and are working on fixtures to to the next steps. We should have more pics and updates later this week.

Insert a cleaning rod from the muzzle, and then attach the brush or patch and then pull it though. Or use a bore snake.

Awful imo. Makes cleaning a PITA.

Maybe drill out the blind hole where the buffer tube threads in and drill out the buffer tube and run a rod in that way?

Reminds me of cleaning my 1022, which hardly gets cleaned cause it's a PITA.

That's unfortunate, that's a deal breaker/fatal flaw for me, unless a workaround/cleaning port is developed. Crown damage is very tough to avoid if forced to clean from the muzzle. More power though to those that are ok with it, and thanks for offering the option.

Reminds me of the rifle Q the Fix

Tuesday Update: Fixturing and CAM work for the lower is sorted out. More chips flying tomorrow! We are still waiting on tools for the upper and carrier.

would this end up lighter than an AR-15?

I like light rifles.

It would depend on what parts you use to build it. Since this rifle doesn't have a buffer or buffer spring, and the carrier is lighter there will be some weight savings.

One suggestion would be to make really low profile gas blocks that have no gas ports to act as a clamp on port block.

If you can change the center of mass on it, you could use it to tune your barrel to the ammo. Like a Browning BOSS.
