Couldn't find kits on Kenco's website.

I will change the Stag kit from Legal Transfers to reflect it having a chrome bore when I get back to work. My file is on a thumb drive which I left at work.

I talked with Sean at FFE.  The FFE kits come unassembled, but you can get a "Caveman" upgrade which gets you an assembled/headspaced upper for an extra $50.  A chrome barrel can also be added for $50 bucks but increases turn around time to 2-4 weeks.  Stocks on the M4 kit are 6 position, may also be the 6 position on the hbar kit (4 position shown on website).  Also said the ferrous parts of the kits have the WASP coating on them that CMMG is using.

I looked at Sherluk and could find 7.5-11.5" bbl kits but no 16" bbl kits listed. They may be on the site somewhere but I sure couldn't find them so I'm not listing them.

Has anyone built a Garrison Mfg Inc kit,is my first ? second is what  foundry forge marks are on there A3 uppers if they have any, And is there any pictures posted of one of there builds anywhere ?

I really am interested in one of there kit's and have talked by e-mail with them on two occasions even called once but only got there answering machine with no return call as of yet, and it's been 3 days now.

I really would like an outside point of view from those who have built there kits

Thanks for your help,

saw another post where several fellows here had used them and all said they are GTG, i'm looking at one of the 9mm carbine kits myself

Thanks for the input so far guys about Garrison mfg kit's ,but I still would like to hear from those who have used there kit's and can tell me things like what forge markings are on the receivers if any, and how well they shoot that sort of thing , Or if there is anything I should ask them I haven't so far before ordering because I maybe ordering more then one kit.

I sure would like to see some pictures of there builds as there web site like Sherluk doesn't show much picture wise to go by, The two sites both look a lot alike when it comes to the web design and color schemes it's like there cousins or something ? LOL        

To me, and I think others on the forum they just don't seem to be as well know at DEL-TON or J&T or even model 1 sales for that matter but there price is really great that's for sure.

They have answered my e-mails promptly but not my phone call only got there answering machine during normal business hr's so it makes me wonder why going on 5 days now and I left my phone and e-mail info ?

I plan to do a lot of shooting with these kit's so I want to know if they will hold up for the long run in some competing events I expect to replace some parts for reliability reasons like the BCG and buffer and sights etc.

So to those who know them and use them let me know what to expect from the start to latter on down the road.

Thanks again for all your helps to all who responded so far,

Same here! Oh well, I got an Oly CAR-15 with SS bbl for $622.00, so I didn't do too bad. Maybe the next AR will be from a kit...
