Plan ahead. Prior to the last round of uppers I made sure I had an account with all of my billing/shipping info stored, and was logged in the day of. Then just start on the F5 a little while before. I started very early for my upper, and had about 2 hours of refreshing the page every minute. |

A question I never thought to ask before, will the A2 lowers have the modern profile or will they be like the old ones?

Just got notice my upper shipped. After a year or so of collecting parts I'll finally be able to build my A1 clone.
A 604 would be sweet as a next project but I think I'll let my wallet cool down for a bit first. |

Upper Received. Just wiped the oil off for now. Didn't really look for any blems or at least nothing stood out but. I'd like to say the little things are nice like the box it came in and foam insert. While on a normal build that would be a waste of time/money on something like this is just shows a little more attention and love. So good on mike. Fit is nice and snug on the H&R lower. Again, can't wait till some of the extra little parts gets produced and I'll get what I put in replaced.

His operation seems very first class. I’ll eventually score an A1 lower, a 635 9mm lower, a 604 type upper and maybe C7/A1M type upper. Patience is one of my virtues 😂 |

I sure hope they can ramp up the volume or do something else in the near future to make them more available to the masses. 12, 18, and sometimes 24 hour shifts do not provide for regular opportunities to browse recreational forums or execute precision online shopping. |

Thanks, Ren From all the way back in January, from the other H&R thread: mike_nds: "We will be marking all the lowers in the standard fashion. There will be: M16A1 XM16E1 XM177E2 Commando 601 GX-5857" Next lower up has been announced as XM16E1 (partial fence), "Commando" marked. As for M16-marked partial-fences, it is a mystery... |
