The receiver group is in for engraving and cerekote. I found a local company in Tempe thru the AZCDL website; Wright Armory. Pics to follow when I get them back.

Its looking more like a completed rifle.....

The barrel was just ordered today from Fulton Armory. I still haven't decided on a hand guard.

Sweet! Nice to see Fulton Armory selling SLR gas blocks along with their barrels, they pair up really nicely. It took maybe 5 minutes to get mine adjusted at the spring shoot.

Hi Gents....I need some help.... I'm looking at a few rails , they're giving me a option for either a DPMS/SR25 or AR10 Nut. Whats the difference and does it matter on a home build?

The barrel description says the following..................

For use on DPMS/Remington/FA pattern .308 AR rifles with a rifle-length gas system, includes barrel extension.

Do I opt for the DPMS/SR25 nut?

Correct

Need to see what the upper is threaded for - barrel and barrel extension design don't have anything to do with what barrel nut threading is on the upper.

You can easily mount an Armalite barrel in a DPMS rifle, as long as you run an Armalite bolt that matches that barrel extension.  Vice versa, as well.

Upper thread pitch determines what barrel nut you use - Armalite threading and DPMS-based threading are different.

Got it. I'm set on a SLR rail. I contacted them and told them what I have for a receiver and barrel They said the DPMS/SR25 nut. They also told me to ask for the wrench in the order, it'll be FOC and gave me a 10% discount code....Ive placed my order. It'll go in for Cerekote when it arrives. It's almost finished.
