Still, picked up a barrel and buffer from them. Great barrel, execellent quality, awesome CS! Hanging out in this forum is bad for my wallet, currently contemplating a .45 acp build, lol. 5.5" barrel :) Attached File

BIG THANKS TO RUDY! I had a question about the barrel and spent about 15 minutes on the phone with him before I placed the order, great guy.

- Aero upper, no forward assist
- 7.5 " Macon Armory barrel
- Q Cherry Bomb muzzle device
- 6" Midwest Industries MLOK rail
- Colt bolt
- CMMG deflector
- CMMG lower
- Geissele T-1 mount w/ Vortex Crossfire
- Magpul stock and grip

I have only run a mag thru it so far but it runs great, definitely coming back for my 4.5" Glock lower build.

Almost finished, just waiting for long 6-32 tap for screw-in bolt catch pin.
Range tomorrow, probably with std. roll-pin for bolt catch for now.

MI iron sights, and Elf trigger, and their non-rotating pin set in Anderson lower.
Going to give a Devil Dog side charging handle a try.

Possible up-grades: Cut barrel back an inch or so, then pin & weld muzzle device, and maybe pull the hand guard, and paint to match Grip & Stock.
