We are indeed stuck with it. Hopefully all will be good in the end...........

picked up the lower with big logo from a local shop and started my 10 day wait in november. but before i did i called jd and asked them how much an upper would be. they informed me that they didnt have any in at the time but they would be ready for the gun show in december plus they give a special price for the gun show so i went ahead and bought it and waited. showed up at the gun show in december ready to pick up an upper but was informed they werent currently in production. so from then on every two weeks i check and its always another two weeks.

Got the upper with Forward assist. Yea I have been calling them every other week and its always been"yea 2 more weeks". I went to the new shop 2 weeks ago and told them Ive been waiting forever. No one really cared. oh well the only time i did business with them is when they were gettign rid of thier Kaiser Defense lowers for 80 bucks. but dealing with them now is a pain

Yes sir hahah. That is what it is going to look like. At least you got the handguards. I had my heart set on the JD ones but then had a change of heart because i love the way the continuous top rail looks so i went the TRX route. still light as can be too. well im glad im not the only one cutting the barrel. Too many people have already given me crap for making a true 16 inch .308. Yep the only thing missing is the upper receiver, then the machining of the barrel by them and then me and my buddy are going to Duracoat it. Keep me posted on the Uppers, I called RifleGear today because they stock JD Machine and they even said no luck with gettign thier orders filled

Hello all! Brand new member and first time poster here. Well I pretty much have everything to complete my first .308 build but sadly STILL waiting on JD Machine to start popping out upper recievers. List of parts so far; JD Machine Lower with Big logo Magpul UBR stock and MIAD grip DPMS LPK DPMS BCG CAR-10 Buffer & Mod spring Rainier Arms Match barrel Noveske KX3 PIG Troy Ind. TRX-13.8 Troy Ind. HK style sites The rifle parts that are not already FDE will be Duracoated FDE. JD Machine will cut and thread the barrel to 13.7 and perm attach the PIG to it. Hopefully JD gets me my matched upper before I head to training and I can actually shoot it. Rather than a drawer full of gun parts. Cant wait to post pics when its complete.
