i have a spare lower with a stock and a few uppers, just sitting in my safe taking up room, but i don't know if i really "need" two SBR's.  even though two are better than one.

Robert,
I am going to have to have this next SBR engraved. I did my first one myself and to be honest was not pleased with the results. It filled the requirement but looks  more Romanian than Bulgarian if you know what I mean. :laugh: Did you have yours done and if so who did you go to?
Thanks
Goose

i got mine engraved with Ident in TX.  there's a post about me using the NFOA logo for my engraving.  i think it looks pretty cool.

i know im digging up an old thread, but here's an update anyway.... with pictures!

SBR in .223/5.56:
10.5" 1/7 barrel, shortened by ADCO, bought off AR15.com's EE
Tareinco OD green sling
Vortex Strikefire optic



SBR in .300 BLK:

there's a few other things i need before i'm done... like a 22 thread protector, optic for 300BLK, charging handle and BCG for 300BLK... the list goes on.  i also need to color fill in the engravings on the lower.  that is a winter job.

BIG THANKS

If your .22 SBR runs like mine you're going to put a LOT of rounds through that thing.  I bet my .22 upper has 10x the round count of any other gun I own.  Hands down the most fun gun I own.  The only way to make it better would be if it had a happy switch.

Now you REALLY need a .22 can.....

i went to Thunder Alley to sight in the scope and found out the CMMG action does NOT like and will not shoot Winchester Wildcat 22 ammo.  it works fine in other long guns and pistols, but i had more FTF than anything else, but my other ammo worked fine.  it was super fun (and accurate) and yes a 22 suppressor is on my short list.

now if they where only $5 stamps......
