    Plans are to either make a 9mm or a .50cal, leaning towards the 50cal... AR10 is somewhere on the list too

    "Bells, please say hello to the whistles....whistles....meet the bells." It's a veritable who's-who of the AR parts market right there.

    Nice lookin shooter you have...looks like some serious thought went in to it.....great success!

    Same with an AR - its fun putting it together for me anyway it was the waiting process ! OH I gotta have it today went right out the window if its not down at the local gun store you gotta make it how you envision it anything less is a set up for dissapointment. It'll teach you patience oh yeah you lose sleep over it your wife thinks your nuts she tired of hearing what you bought next she'll remind you about the household budget and you'll explain the search for the proper equipment never stops and then you have a sweet gun at the end - NICE RIG !

    P.S

    And you'll never know what she'll get out of the deal i.e. lawn furniture lamps a new living room set you know stuff we like ?

    Good looking shooter, well done.
