n8ball2013 Posted January 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 Parts are showing up. Trigger and stock tomorrow. Titanium detent Thursday. Hen I can finish the lower. One thing I don't like is since the end plate is titanium it can't be staked. I'll have to do something else. I have to say I'm very impressed with the fit off these receivers. I could get away without takedown pins I bet. Another cool thing is that the rear takedown pin hole for the detent and spring is threaded. Stick the detent in spring and then compress it and then bread the allen head screw in until flush. The bolt release that is prone to scratch inducing is also threaded. I've got some of the parts assembled but it kind of looks like I'm talking to myself. Total weight in feel is abo the same as my iPad mini for the combined upper and lower. With buffer tube and grip. One thing I'm disappointed with is the mag catch and charging handle were ordered from v7 last week and still has not shipped. They are out of stock everywhere though but still no excuse.

bcpballer64 Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 Looking killer, been meaning to ask, does LAF stand for light as fuck? Crazy they can get the weight down that far "The strongest reason for people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government." -- (Thomas Jefferson) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broke_Audio_Addict Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 Drooooooooooool. That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

n8ball2013 Posted January 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 Yes it does. The castle nut actually has a hole drilled in it for applying some type of locking adhesive. As tight as the buffer tube is in the receiver I don't know if I'll have to worry about it but I'll still do it. As it sits right now my iPad mini is heavier than it THERE IS NO BUILD LOG! 1998 Chevy Silverado ext cab Alpine CDA-9887 4 Team Fi 15s 2 Ampere Audio TFE 8.0 2 Ampere Audio 150.4 3 Digital Designs CS6.5 component sets Dual Mechman 370XP Elite alternators inbound! 8 XS Power d3400 6 XS power d680 Second Skin Stinger Tsunami Wiring Sky High A Real Voltmeter not a piece of shit stinger.

n8ball2013 Posted January 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 I just said fuck it and ordered the 2a Balios lite rail T3 titanium compensator Titanium gas block And the 2a regulated carrier which is .6 lighter than I anticipated. The rail only has an ID of 1.3 inches so the gas blocks are severely limited so in order to get it to shoot light I had to go to the regulated carrier. Cost wise was about the same. I should have this together by next week.

ROLEXrifleman Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 Your going light adv here I'm pricing parts for a 7.5" Beowulf upper that'll probably be heavier than this whole rifle Rolex you sicken me.

n8ball2013 Posted January 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 I've got my pigs too. My 308 comes in at like 15 lbs lol. But when you're handing it to a five foot tall hundred pound chick she can't handle a nine lb rifle. Plus it was a challenge. I wanted to see just how light I can get it and be ready. I don't fuck with iron sights so if I can get a rig at less than five lbs with an optic and mag I wanted to try.

n8ball2013 Posted January 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 Little bit of bragging rights here. As I crawl the net looking for lightweight builds I've realized if I take the weight of the mro out of the picture I almost made four lbs with mro I'm slating this in as 4.713 lbs. without its 4.105lbs. It could be less as I rounded up for trigger and buffer configuration and gas tube. It's the lightest I've seen without using the bullshit polymer lowers and parts.
