No, just need an AR15 size vs AR10

Last one I bought was off Amazon but they don't have them anymore.

Not sure which model this is but it's on clearance and close.

Brownells has free shipping right now on orders of $49 and they happen to be 49.99 so no tax, free shipping...

Aren’t they out of stock? I looked there first and didn’t see them.

Took the price at Fleet Farm. Had them ship to the Lakeville store. I'm hoping that the Gander Outdoors orders will be available for pickup also.

Thanks again.

Back order for these is pretty quick in my experience.

The part is waiting. If I don't pick it up by the 24th they cancel the order and refund your order. I'm going to call and ask if they can extend the deadline. Very quick in this case was not ideal.

Wow. They do typically stock this in the store.

All parts collected. All parts assembled. That PSA lower is pretty tight on the aeroprecision upper . The BCG and the charging handle fell into place. All and all, other than waiting for everything to be in one place, it was relatively easy. Next up will be dropping in the LaRue MBT trigger. All the rest went so well, I didn't want to temp fate. I didn't take any pictures, but I'm not sure if I know how to post photos anyway.

Thanks to all for the words of wisdom, advice and encouragement. I do truly appreciate it.

I have to wait for the ammo I ordered to show up and then a range trip to check function.

Tight is good,

though I have to ask how you managed to pin 2 lowers together :twisted:

Fixed. I was a little concerned about how much epoxy it took to get it all together. :D
