    We make Barrel Torque Rods for the Renegade, AR-15 and AR-10. The Renegade rod might wobble a bit on the inside off an AR-15 but the point that engages the barrel extension lugs will fit snug so in theory it could work for both platforms.

    Would the .308 version have the little pocket in the receiver for the usual AR15 locking plate? I recently got a rifle stock I'd like to fit to an MRA .308 Renegade, but it has the little bump to keep the stock from rotating since it mounts on an AR15 rifle buffer tube rather than a carbine buffer tube.

    Also I just noticed that the LAW tactical folding stock adapter also has a raised bump to lock into a normal AR lower. I may want to use one of these on a standard MRA renegade as well. The pocket might be more useful than I had previously anticipated.

    Yep, I’ve got another upper, a 12.5 Grendel barrel, and a reaction rod on my wishlist too.

    Love the signature, by the way

    There's still the chance to be the first person in history to take a Dremel to a Renegade receiver.

    We considered this.

    The AR-15 end plate will pin the Receiver to the Bottom Metal unless we make a relief cut in the bottom metal in which case the plate is not fully supported.

    Also, using an AR-15 end plate would require a part we cannot make domestically without a significant investment in a stamping press die. We are not willing to make this investment so we must rely on import.

    Presently, the future of importing firearm parts is tenuous for a variety of reasons. We need to ensure we have a sustainable supply chain for all products we choose to produce.

    We will be making an adapter to fit A2 butt stocks and similar full length butt stocks stocks to our line of straight pull receivers. These will be optional for our receiver kits and offered on select models of complete barreled receivers and complete rifles.

    I am working on the BOMs for Complete Rifles, Complete Barreled Actions, and Complete Receivers including the Receiver, Bolt Carrier, Take Down and Pivot Pins, and Extraction Assist Spring. Expect to see them next week on back-order and in stock by the end of the month.

    Sigh … Well this is an unexpected development …So to clarify…

    Use of A2 style fixed stocks like the magpul PRS & Carbine stocks like the UBR will require a special adapter plate over and above the $800 + price tag??

    If so when will that be available?

    Regards

    This irks me. A lot.

    Had I known this (if it is true) I would have gone another route entirely. My build is based off of using an A2 stock. Everything from barrel length choice to stock, was based on using an a2 stock.

    I dont recall reading anything about this prior....

    In that case, will a Battle Arms Development Sabertube work with the receiver without modification to either components?
