He said he was going to join here. Thought maybe it was you. I like the set-up, only shooting 100 right now. That was really the only day I've had a chance to get it out for any time so far. It is crazy how smooth the action is, isnt it? I love it.. |

I know this is a picture thread but where are you guys finding uppers and lowers regularly? Rainier is about the only one I know of off the top of my head and they are never in stock. I want to build one up not do complete rifle.

My rifle was too long, so I spent $200 and waited 6 months to make it shorter. Then it was too loud, so I spent another $200 and waited another 6 months to make it quieter. This made it longer again.

There's a ton of parts that were crazy hard to source or details I paid attention to including: - Original 10.2 300 blackout barrel (vs. 10.5) - Deep socket AAC flash hider - Original Noveske 5-slot keymod rail - half-moon safety selector (friends at Noveske had to dig deep in the barrel to find that one) - Noveske ADM mount with old-style markings (friends at Noveske contacted ADM and got them to build me one custom one-off with the original markings!) - Coated Noveske marked BCM charging handle (most people forget to coat this) - Old style NSR rail with the holes between the slots Anyway, I set out to create the perfect clone and I'm super close! The only thing I haven't done yet is get the barrel coated black. It's coming though. |

I've got a gen 3 noveske lower, and I'm planing on on putting a noveske upper with it. Do they make an upper without a forward assist that matches up? I figured this was the best place to ask. I promise to add pictures when the time comes

That's weird. They work for me on 2 different browsers.
The MUR1S is at joeboboutfitters with free shipping for $162. SMOS has their non-FA upper for around $250 in various colors. |

I didn't want to mess with cerakote so I had plans to do the same thing you did, just coat it with high temp paint and then another coat of standard gun paint to get the right sheen. However, since I bought my factory upper I didn't really want to mess with unpinning the gas block and taking the barrel nut off once I got to that point. I decided to assemble it as-is, knowing that I can always take it off and coat it later if I need to. Love that RAL8000 coat you have on that other SBR back there. I've been considering coating my Diplomat in that color instead of FDE. |
