My First AR Build

[Bruiser]

That's very generous of you.  I'll have to see if I have a receipt when I get home but I'm betting I probably don't.  It's probably been a year since I bought it.

I did find one at Optic Planet https://www.opticsplanet.com/nikon-m-series-xr-mount-30mm.html

Another at Rangefinders https://www.rangefinders.com/nikon-m-series-xr-mount-30mm.html

Nikon is really proud of it https://en.nikonsportoptics.ca/nikon-products/mounts/m-series-xr-mount-(30mm).html

Those are just the first few pulled off from Google.  Seems like $84 to $85 is the going price for them.  I think I paid around $80 for it though.  How does $80 shipped to you in a priority box sound?

That sounds good - I'd do that no problem.  I'll send you a PM.

I took it out and shot it today.  Other than being kinda heavy the only problem I had was that it seems to make ammo disappear...  I swear I only pulled the trigger 5 times but then my magazine was empty ?  Everything worked properly.  Ejected straight out the side, fed every round, bolt locked back after last round.  No problem chambering a round after a new magazine was installed.  I was shooting Winchester Super X 180 grain Power Points.  It was very pleasing to shoot.  I expected much more recoil than it gave.  I would say my COlt Competition has a sharper recoil shooting 55 grain 5.56 ammo.

BTW, I still did manage to come in at just over $800 but it was the Duracoat shipping fees that pushed it past 800.

Thanks to everybody for your advice,
