I had a bit of a rough time with this rifle. Every time I went to order, it was sold out in all colors (I really wanted FDE but maybe next I'll do that with the next build) but I finally got lucky the beginning of this month. I had it sitting around for about a week and it was killing me. I wanted to get the lower built so I could have the rifle finished (for now, there will probably be some minor changes). My class schedule wasn't allowing me enough time to sit down and get it done.
This morning I decided that it was time to get it built and out of the way. The build process went fairly smoothly other than dropping the bolt catch roll pin in the garage and not knowing where it bounced. A trip to the hardware store for the proper size and things were underway. I haven't had a chance to hit the range but everything function checks 100%.
I didn't take any pics of the process because I'm a horrible photographer and there are tons of pics all over the internet. The final product did get a few pics snapped. Here it is.
I just need to get a free afternoon to hit the range and then it'll be on to planning the next build (while putting as many rounds down range as time and school allow).
