A big hello from Maryland.

Hopefully sitting in peace and quiet. I'm one of those guys that can actually enjoy being alone...........with a full fridge of beer. And if family comes around..........you definitely need the beer. HA!

I'd roll with either an Armalite SuperSASS like imschur suggested, a LWRC Reaper or a POF (as edge suggested). I've got the SASS, and my son has the Reaper. Both are outstanding rifles, running straight or with suppressors. Highly accurate and just outright fun to shoot (as if any of them aren't). I've got a POF on order (for a loooooong time), so that says what I think about thier quality. Good to see that you're not flinching at some of the prices that come with the larger AR platform. Alot to choose from......but as always, unless you stumble across a hell of a deal, you get what you pay for.

Yep.....I with you guys. I know all about the pain opf waiting. Ordered a 12.5" POF 308 at the end of last December. Still hasn't even come in yet......and still get to look forward to the ATF paper trail side of the waiting process. Gotta love it....right?

I definitely approve. I like the Troy rail. I used that one on a carbine build last year. Nice stuff.

Nothing but Hogue's on all of my AR's. In my opinion (for what that's worth) the most comfortable grip out there. And for 20 bucks, you can't beat em. But, then again, it always comes down to personal preference.

Try this outfit. I bought a BCG for one of my builds. And they show them as in stock. https://delta3tactical.com/store/categories/AR%252d10%7B47%7DM14-%252d-.308-Cal.-Products-and-Parts/AR%252d10/AR10-Upper-Receiver-Parts/

AAC all the way. Outstanding suppressors. And I really like the 51t muzzle break for quick detach.

I would like to keep the $ down a bit. I didn't think that's possible with POF. Ha!

12.5" ain't bad....hell....how could you go wrong? I've got the DSA 11" FAL OSW(waiting on the ATF), the POF 12" PDW (on order..waiting to come in), and I just ordered the Noveske Leonidas barrel (plan to build my own upper with it). It's a sickness. I'm kinda going thru an SBR craze right now. And hey....what else is better to storm the castle with? HA! Especially when those shorties have suppressors on them. Silence is golden. Less is more. Now, pesonally I like the Noveske stuff cause it's built to the Armalite specs. Sheesh....I can't help it.....I'm kind of an Armalite guy. Once again....it's a sickness.

I would definitely agree...........especially since I have the 12 inch on order. <thumbsup>

Love that Troy rail. I got that on one of mine. Extremely light, yet strong. The masking on the rail numbers must have taken quite some patience.

Definitely interested in prices. Count me in. Thanks.

Ahhh...just as in racing...the lighter and stronger the components...the more they cost. Sounds like a very interesting build.

Eh...unfortunately, the range that I belong to is only 100 yards at this time. We're trying to get the club to open up the 200 yard range. Some legal, mumbo jumbo, too smart for me, type of issue between the club, county and state. The county that I'm in (Prince George's...ie part hood) is right outside our beloved nations capital. So we take what we can get. I've heard of a 500 yard+ range out at Ft. Meade...but I haven't checked into civilian use yet. Either way...the SASS is still fun with the can on it...even if it is just 100 yards.

I know, I know. I titled it pics...not pic. I'm kinda stupid that way some times. Anyway, heres a couple of 16" carbines. The A2 is pretty much a stock Armalite A2. AAC blackout brake Harris bipod Alostyr 2 piece rail from Armalite (lazy mans rail system) Houge grip Troy front grip Since this pic, I've added a JP adjustable gas sight post (to make it suppressor friendly). The A4 was my first attempt at building an upper assembly. Armalite Stripped A4 upper Armalite BCG Armalite 16" barrel Standard charging handle (soon to be PRI gas buster) Troy TRX rail Troy BUIS Troy front grip PRI lo-pro gas block (soon to be an adjustable one) Standard flash-hider (soon to be another AAC brake....for the can)

I'm kinda fond of this one. Armalite SASS upper Armalite lower AAC blackout brake AAC 762-SD Harris BR-S bipod Magpul UBR Hogue grip Nightforce NXS 3x15x50

Yep. Knew that. Just kiddin around myself.

Hey...you gotta be comfortable with yourself in this world. Last time I checked...a pink gun still goes bang right?

Hey, whoa, hey, slow down, pump the brakes. No calling out was being done here. Simply asking a fellow gunner's approval. Ha! Drive to my state? I didn't know anybody else knew where the state of confusion was.

Sorry...meant "unforgiven" on the approval thing. But who doesn't love a good SBR now and again?

About as big as a grin that you can have without going to full auto. So I take it that means that you approve Edge? ha! It's a sickness. I'm kinda going thru a SBR phase. DSA OSW....POF P-308 PDW...and the Leonidas. LIke I said, it's a sickness. And the ATF must be gettin to love my sorry ass by now. Between cans and SBR's, they must be loving me...at 200 a pop that is.

My thoughts exactly. That's why I'm in the process of getting one of my lowers registered with "THE MAN" as an SBR. Once that's done....leonidas barrel...low-profile adjustable gas block...12" handguard so the AAC brake will hang just barely out of the end of it...and the suppressor on the end of it. How could that not be interpreted as a good time?

You'll get past that eventually. As with anything in the 308 world, Ya gotta pay to play.....and space purchases out. Hell...just the barrels for those things are 500 bucks. But who doesn't like a little 308 fire breathing monster?

I use one of the heavy buffers that I got from slash for one of my Armalite carbines. It functions great. Reduced recoil (not that it was an issue). Between that and the JP adjustable gas block, the carbine runs great with the AAC suppressor. Ron
