bradders Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 A good a name as any ? Finished yesterday as I've been waiting on both the Proof House as well as a new batch of sidecharging handles (still the best) Built on a set of receivers from Cross machine, I removed the whole deflector boss before machining the slot It has a med weight Lothar Walther 1:11" twist barrel at 18" OAL and a Tier One/Third Eye Tac Brake, which was based off and made on the same machine as the Doofer® Other stuff....a Midwest Industries 12.625" handguard and straight bladed Triggertech triggerBig Ergo Grip and a UBR There's a Trijicon 1-8 inbound which should finish the package off nicely There's two more on the go, a 16.5" .308 and a .243 which should be completed tomorrow ?

ruger7717 Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 Thats a nice looking build Mark!...Any reason the handguard is not one of your own? Looking forward to seeing how the .243 performs, do you envisage any feed problems?...i've always said a .243 in a AR platfrom would be sweet.

Thanks I’ve never had a hand guard for the bigger rifles, besides that there’s so many confuse with the .308 size receivers in height and style that’s it not as simple as the .223 size rifles as they are mostly within a certain spec (Milspec) I am also discontinuing my own handguard as times have to move on ? I think the .243 will be just fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice scope that has all the features people seem to want. Seems robust with good clear optics and gaining popularity more and more.....and reasonably priced too, compared to its high end competition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
