Still waiting...
My brother ordered his AR kit in December, he still hasn't received it although they told him it'll be sometime in May. At that rate, I should have mine by July.

in 5.56 I assume? Do you like the CTR?
Are you going to add BUIS later? When you go for the Aimpoint, you might want to try the Live.com EBAY discount. So, when she is done, are you going to paint it camo? |

http://www.ar15performance.com/home But still deciding if I want to build a 6.8 SPC. Since I ordered it, I have fallen in love with LWRC's SABR. So I have to decide. I think I really want a 7.62 NATO sniper rifle first, so I will probably go with the SABR. The CTR is very nice. I would really like a UBR, but they are 150 more than the CTR, so maybe next build. I have Magpul's new MBUS on order, but I have some pro mag BIUS on it right now. I will check out the live discount thing, thanks for the heads up! I doubt I will paint it. We'll see.

A plastic pop-up site just doesn't do it for me.
Do you think a CTR is that much better than a normal 6-position stock? How much is the LWRC SABR? Looks to be hard on the wallet. It will be interesting to see where the 6.8 goes from here. |

I have heard they are performing well at holding zero, we will see, but at the cost it is worth a try. I can't seem to justify $260 for a set of Troy Battle Sights, but I am sure I will end up with a pair of these as well.

I used to want an M1A. Until I picked it up and realized it weighed 40 pounds.
I'm not really a rifle guy, but I am trying to learn. |
