Anyone else started their black friday AR parts shopping yet?

I ordered an 11.5” DDC SD upper, Airborne CH, SD-C trigger and H1 buffer and BCG from Geissele’s generous sale! Upper is going on an SBR’d Colt lower. Should get it all in about 5 weeks, but that’s ok!

Thanks to JediGuy bird-dogging a coupon code, scored a 12.5 barrel with pinned lo-pro block from Ballistic Advantage for $120. Combined with a spare-parts BCG, now all I need to do is go get my preferred lower and an A2 flash hider...

Was not trying to seem like a shill for any particular place is my excuse.

Nah, I don't call that shilling. If someone calls you out for sharing good deals in the Christmas thread, kindly ask them to complain to me. I'm not Staff, but I'll happily tell them I asked you to do it.

For regular posts about good deals, check out my forum which is a bit farther down the page. We have a dedicated thread that stays pretty busy.


Hard to say no to those Geissele prices, I might have to pick one up as a Christmas present for a family member.

I almost pulled the out the card for a DSG stripped upper. But told myself no more rifles.

I've not found much that I've needed that has been on sale so far... I got a QMS trigger on the ALG sale price, but I've been waiting for a deal from Cryptic Coatings on BCGs and they haven't done anything yet. Typically they've always done 15% off this time of year.

I need one C7 upper without M4 feed ramps, but carry handle uppers are non existent at this point.

Waiting to see if I can get better than $260 shipped for a 12.5" Rosco Bloodline Sauce Pack.

I was looking at that and the Hanson barrel too.

I ended up buying some soft gear instead, new belt from Defense Mechanisms, they are doing 25% off, a Roll 1 med pouch, about 20 bucks off and Salomon Toundra boots for 50 bucks off. The boots were a combo of 20% off and another 20 bucks in points from LAPG.

Pretty happy with what I got.

Grabbed some cool stuff, including a pistol I have been holding out on. But mostly excited about carbine/rifle classes purchased for 2023.

Got a complete 6921 upper from Locked and Loaded for less than $500 shipped. Thought that was a pretty good deal.

Ended up getting a similar barrel with pinned lo-pro block for $120 at Ballistic Advantage, A2 FH from Damage Industries, 10rd "concealment" mags from Midway (AR-Stoner house brand) and Dvor (M3 Pmag), and the bag from Midway. (Kaw Valley 3.25" Magnum linear comp from Dvor too, but that's meant as a "fake can" for a future GL/SSC-ish build.) My FFL has an Aero M4 lower on hold for me--surprisingly no deposit, "Gun Mom" told me "your word's good enough for me, and we kinda like being there to share the moment when you finish a build on our counter." (She likes the ASDW concept for some reason, too.)

This means everything I need to finish the build is on the way, my fastest AR completion thanks in part to a specific bequest from my late aunt even though we're still working out the rest of the estate.
