Buddy of mine wanted my old TA31M4 I paid $275 for and we traded straight across. He asked if I'd split the cost of refreshing the tritium which I probably will because I'm nice and we both know how ahead I am on this deal. I got a similar deal recently. One of my best friends sold me his "old" TA31-D RCO (he sold the rifle it was for) for basically $400 bucks. It was purchased new last year.

Look into Thoroughbred Armco, Geissele, LMT MARS (if ambi is your jam), FCD/SOLGW if you hate money, and EWS / HTS if you're into the "hype" stuff. Ripcord also occasionally does runs of lowers IIRC. |

Yea I liked the lines of the AERO but honestly it's not worth it to me right now. I like the billet look but I can live without that, there seems to be a bunch of companies hoping on the tanodized train so I'm not too concerned at all that I'll be "missing out" if I don't find a receiver set. |

I don’t think they’re still readily available, and if they are, I can’t imagine they’d be cheap. Geissele is your best bet, but I’d shop the EE / GAFS / Tacswap so you can pick your color, because Geissele will call everything from rose gold to burnt bronze to Reptilia’s tobacco to almost clear ano “DDC” with their stupid disclaimer. |

100% a cross post from the SPR thread. A lot of tano on this one. I think I’m finally done messing with it. Until I find something else, but cooler.

Bad Attitude set and buffer tube are in (pictured middle). Close to my G DDC set and not coppery at all. For comparison sake: top left is Aero Kodiak, right receiver set is FCD upper/Thoroughbred lower, Griffin's rail in terra earth, and then an older G DDC set on the rifle.

Makes me want to do another build, lol. |

Looks great! Is that all DDC or is some BAD brown mixed in there? |

I'll rebuild it with the Aero Kodiak receivers and the Griffin rail. I'm gonna sell the URX 4. |

Black is for boomers. This thread can’t die. My almost 80 year old dad’s favorite rifle of mine is the G$ tano URGI build. There’s style hope even for boomers.  Attached File |

| @spyderboy03 Nice. I’ve got two KAK rails.. 11.3” 5.56 & 8” 300BO builds. Black, but still same rail system. For the coin, they’re fantastic. You may need to finesse the anti-rotational tabs (I did on both.) no big deal.. just needed done. Truth be known, I’m super happy with them. Even if they were priced a bit higher I’d consider them a great value. As priced, stupid good value. |
