Non-Restricted .50 Cal Trigger Group/Lower - Order Online!

This is a great development, but if people will indulge a question that might have been answered already, I was wondering what else a purchaser might need to complete the rifle?

Will the trigger group pictured at the beginning of this thread come with the hammer, trigger, springs, etc.? And what would be recommended by the way of a buttstock for such a hefty rifle. And since I don't see my 10X Bushnell Mil Dot target scope as being the optimal candidate for mounting, I'm just wondering what most here would consider a realistic price to budget for when all is said and done.

I understand that Lee Precision has a reloading press and dies, while another company provides the molds for casting lead bullets that shoot well with Trail Boss. All that ordering of parts and reloading could make for the shooting project of the summer I suppose, but I would think it fitting to factor in all of these steps before deciding to purchase one of these.

From the information thread on the lowers.
"The lower with the upper modifications is $750.00, a number of the small parts from a standard LPK are also required, but I suspect $50.00 will cover all of them. The DA50 apparently comes with a proprietary hammer, which makes sense as standard mil type hammers and springs do not have enough mass to set of the 50 cal primers.
A standard buffer tube and some sort of AR stock and grip will also be required to make the unit useful, these are common and can be purchased almost everywhere AR parts can be found.
From experience I would suggest something like an A2 or PRS or something fixed along those lines rather than a collapsible stock."

Your Bushy will do the job although there are many far better scopes on the market. Keep in mind that IF the plan is to shoot cast bullets, you will be giving up a lot of velocity and range.
The Lee crap will do the job, for a while, but I suggest buy once and cry once, that way you don't potentially get hurt when the press snaps and you have a useful tool for many many years.

How many more do you need before this goes into production

We are going ahead with this. Materials will be ordered next week.
The guys who put down deposits will be the first to get the lowers obviously. We will be making a few more than what has been spoken for but not many, so for those still on the fence NOW is the time to put up or remain silent until we decide whether we run a second batch.
 
I asked on the DA50 thread with no response, but could someone take a quick measurement of the OAL of the upper? I'd like to find a pelican case that will hold the upper and lower separetly.
 
Just to clarify as there seems to be some confusion.
Material to make the lowers has been ordered. once here it will take us about 3 months to get the raw billet stock machined into lowers, anodized and made into useful parts.
Once the lowers are done we can then start to get the modifications done to the uppers.
So BEST case scenario is about 3 to 4 months until lowers are completed and we can get to the mods on the uppers.
Apparently there are some who figured this was a week to 10 day project.

10 day project ?? really LOL
I'll be happy to see mine done anytime before fall ;)
just hope more uppers become available in June ( I see some fool has one listed in the ee for 400 more than canam's retail LOL , maybe he was the the lower in 10 days guy hahaha)
 
I've got a question or two

when these lowers are getting machined, what kind of options will we have for finish and engravings?

Not to be too blunt but.... None. Anodized black, and the engravings will be

Thanks ATRS, you rock! I placed my deposit on the lower last week and have my DA50 upper in hand. Will you send an email when its time to send the upper in to you? I don't normally check the forums but don't want to miss the row call. :)
 
Sweet if ATRS can offer the complete package. Aside from the hassle of dealing with two companies ATRS is in AB means BCers save the PST of $112 on the DA 50.

Require a deposit of $1500 to ensure no risk on ATRS.

If sales go well something to think about in future is either ATRS or CA putting together a complete rifle. I for one would prefer to buy the complete package

is there are reason they need a serial number and such? made in Canada doesn't require that does it?
The fewer markings the better but I realize it's probably all in the program during cnc.

I'd even take mine in the white (will be cerakoting anyways) , fully machined, no markings if that is at all possible ;)
but in the end, i'll take what I can get LOL

yes, I've quoted my own post.
seems a few folks took exception to what I said here about the FRT..... epoxy7 and fireball felt the need to PM me, and seem to think my character and morality are at question because of what I posted and that I somehow have something to do with fireballs post being deleted and him being called a troll...... which those words and actions never came out of me so I dunno what gives here.

what the hell is wrong with people anyways?

The FRT number could just be posted so people stop asking for it

So does everyone harass other companies to divulge things that really do not matter? Does everyone know the FRT number of every gun they purchase from every firearms retailer?
OR is that a dung disturber is wasting as much of our time as is humanly possible?
I mean seriously, ATRS is a well known federally licensed firearms manufacturer that has been around for over 20 years now, would we really be risking it all in order to sell less than $40000.00 worth of product? The least expensive, most worn out machine I own is easily worth more than that. I also have a very severe allergy to criminal proceedings. So let me spell this out clearly.
IF IT WAS NOT LEGAL WE WOULD NOT BE OFFERING IT FOR SALE!
Any question? Enough of the trolls I say.:kickInTheNuts:

no idea, I have no interest in it myself, just figured it would stop people from asking, especially if it is of no consequence that it is or is not known by the consumer
