I'm about to dump another 400 bucks into my Sks because it's not Black enough.
You black rifle guys are all EVIL!!!

Heh, I figured that's what you guys were all about.
Right now, you could just as easily lift a pic from the Windham catalogue. Various bits and bobs are inbound.
Actually going to be a fairly minimalist setup with BUIS and Optics and swap some of the furniture for ergo/colour.
Wow... Ummm... No... If I ever do that, you can kick me out of whatever club it is I accidentally just joined.

You ain't got a black rifle until it looks something like this.

Same boat here. Parts still arriving and I haven't even shot it yet! Same with the 870. Figured I'd get a 'couple' of firearms for some 3 gun fun. So far, all I have done is 'accessorize'! Be a real pisser if/when I get to the range and all I get is 'click', nothing

I'm in the same situation, owned firearms for 30 years, never a black rifle till a month ago, ordering bits and pieces and optics left and right.
You guys think $150-$400 in plastic or "bits" is bad?. Just wait until you want to AND start doing Clone builds..
Heck, just install a Geissele trigger if you want the price to start adding up quick. I went with an ALG enhanced Nickel Boron coated single stage in my last build. For $77 you can't go wrong.
The trick for a build on a budget is to take your time and wait for then jump on the really good deals that pop up on the EE.
AR's are an addiction, it never ends. I was up to six AR's in the safe at one point and don't know how many I've owned over the last few years but I'm down to four now with one awaiting transfer then will be down to three. The AR-10 just didn't get used enough to have that much money sitting tied up in it. Still have my 12 inch 223, 300BLK, and 9mm AR's
Just when you think you're done you see something else you want or a different configuration and it's time to shop for parts for a new build.
But I'm a liberal (on some things anyway) and I LOVE my black rifles.
