Rsquared

So I go stumbling through the door of my local gun pusher. Wait...no.....wrong story. (you long time members will get that) So I'm finally getting around to building this thing. I've been sitting on the majority of the parts for a little over a year. So I figured that today is the day to get this bitch together. All I gotta do is make this......... ...........turn into a functional rifle. Seems straight forward enough, even for a window licking, cherry flavored crayon eater like me. So, it's been a while since I built my last rifle. I almost forgot how much of a bitch those damn trigger pins can be sometimes. Of course, the first time they damn near fell in. Then, following the typical R2 pattern of luck and stupidity model,. I forgot to put the safety selector in first. No biggie. So I Pop the pins back out and slap in the selector. Trigger pin slides in like butter. Then I proceed to fumble with the F#*@ing hammer pin for 15 minutes. Walk away, take a couple of deep soothing breaths, get a drink of water and return. Hammer pin slides in. FUKER! So, at this point, the lower is complete. Yea! So I go to start working on the upper. NOW. Take a good look at that first picture and tell me if you see what I'm missing. I'll wait. (insert jeopardy music here) OK. I'll let you in on it, since I can tell that you're on the edge of your seat? The FUKING gas tube. How do I not have a fuking gas tube in stock? You've GOT to be fukin kiddin me. Un-Fucking-believable. Can't really get too far with the upper build without the gas tube. It's kinda like an important part if you weren't aware. So, it looks like I'll return to this later. Where's my fukin beer at? Armalite SPR lower, Armalite upper, Armalite LPK Standard A2 stock, Hogue grip, Toolcraft BCG, Geissele SSA-E trigger Ballistic advantage 18" 1 in 8 twist stainless 6.5 Grendel barrel, with NO FUKIN GAS TUBE! PRI gen 3 handguard, PRI top rail, PRI flip up sight/gasblock, PRI flip up rear sight, PRI charging handle Did I say no fukin gas tube? Atlas bipod, AAC compensator (going with this for my cans) And still no FUKIN gas tube. I haven't decided yet on what glass that I'm gonna put on top of this bastard yet. I've got it narrowed down to about 4 different optics. Shocker.....somehow I always seem to pick expensive $hit. Fuk me four ways from Sunday. I'll let you all stew on which four they could possibly be for a while. That's enough for now. As you were ladies.

And THAT, is nothing bu the truth.

Yep. Just delete them. We all know what sites we use.

Grandkids are the best. I've been told that I spoil mine here and there. My oldest granddaughter, Maggie (she's 6), all she has to do is look at me and I hand over my wallet.

Good job my man. We all learned, at some point, that these bigger AR's are a complete different animal than their little brothers. Like 98 said. That's what this site is here for. Oh.....and stop hand-jobbing him. Never forget that he's our kind of a$$hole.

That's always the default answer around here.

Welcome aboard from Maryland. Also, welcome to the world of 308 AR's.

You ain't foolin nobody fuker. You're still working on something somewhere. The price is right. Yeah right.

Yeah, realistically, he is trying to keep up with Matt with the overall family head count.

Welcome aboard from Maryland.

That looks like a nice optic dude. The price doesn't hurt either.

Welcome aboard from Maryland.

Welcome from Maryland.

A tip of the hat, and a big ol shout out to my man William Shatner. The Shat-man is 90 years old today. Yep, you heard it right. The original, ONE and ONLY, green-babe bangin, cosmic dick slingin Captain of the Enterprise.

Welcome from Maryland.

Now THIS is one of the biggest fabrications of the whole year.

I'm here to tell you about these Wilson Combat handguards. They're SOLID as a rock. I've got one of these style of rails on a 7.5" 15 build that I did a couple years back. If the rifle ever goes click instead of bang, you can swing these things around and club somebody with them. They lock up against the upper receivers rock solid.

Welcome from Maryland.

Out-Fucking-Standing!

Not a pistol. But an 12" SBR. I love all of my AR-10's. But as others have said, I wouldn't wanna light this little bastard off indoors. One because of the noise. Two....because it would go through the perp.....the wall behind them.....the exterior brick wall behind that.....the brick wall of the neighbors house another 50 feet away....and then it's really gonna get ugly.

Absolutely nothing wrong with the 553's. I've got a few of them and have never had any issues.

That counts in my book.

Happy Fukin Birthday..............ya prick. I can't help but to Hate, yet Love you all at the same time. Pants down hug waitin for ya.

Sshhhhh. Don't tell Tom. It'll make his head explode. I finally ordered the PRI stuff needed for my MK12 build. Handguard, front/rear sights, PEQ top rail. Keep this amongst ourselves.
