[QUOTE="adamsredlines, post: 2932510, member: 40561"] So my buddy wanted to sell his FBT complete lower...I asked how much and he says $100. Ok, SOLD. I post a want ad for an upper and a board member responds with a 300AAC upper less BCG and CH for 235. I offer 200 and he agrees. Ok, SOLD. Go to FBT today to pick up a BCG and CH...get an Anderson for this and a BCM CH to put in my better AR...and use the one from there in this one. Net cost is $375 and its "ready to shoot". So...is it gonna work? BCG is pretty tight. I disassembled it and put it through two cycles in the sonic cleaner then soaked it down with EWL so hopefully a few shots will lap it together. The upper is basically unknown to me...seller said he bought the barrel and stripped upper from BP Outfitters and had them assemble it. Seems everything should jive...guess I will know Tuesday. Upper came with the keymod rail and MBUS. After I verify it works I'd like to get a longer handguard and some fixed sights...maybe some Magpul furniture and call it done. Trying not to spend a fortune as I just want a "truck gun" to toss around. She aint pretty but what AR's are? :D [ATTACH=full]63162[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
