What’s the story on the new premium receivers? Is it just the finish? I’m hoping they opened the flare on the magwell a bit.

I saw that Sionics had their premium uppers in stock last week, so I ordered one with a medium contour barrel. I'm very excited, but I hope I don't have to wait 6-8 weeks to get it.

looks like Sionics is running a 20% off sale on the Patrol III full rifle. not a bad price.
I haven't bought much more than a single upper from them since Steve O left and haven't seen much chatter here. they still gtg?
Is Sionics no longer selling stripped uppers/lowers?
I would guess most of their parts are taken up by contracts. They seem busy.
