washguy Posted October 3, 2013 Author Report Posted October 3, 2013 Hi Guys just wanting to let you know im still in contact with the mfg....he notified me last nite that another meeting is in order..I havnt given up yet :) Wash
BLKSHEEP Posted October 4, 2013 Report Posted October 4, 2013 I'd be in for (1) 308 lower & upper if he gets them ready in time. If the price is right..
EasyEJL Posted October 4, 2013 Report Posted October 4, 2013 I'm definitely interested in an upper if his upper price is as good as his lower prices :)
392heminut Posted October 4, 2013 Report Posted October 4, 2013 I'd be in for (1) 308 lower & upper if he gets them ready in time. If the price is right.. Me too!
SwissyJim Posted October 5, 2013 Report Posted October 5, 2013 Me too! me three! (in for one, not three ::) )
Magwa Posted October 5, 2013 Report Posted October 5, 2013 I would be interested in one at the right price and after someone we know has done a build, but a 270 AR now that is a big 10 4
washguy Posted October 10, 2013 Author Report Posted October 10, 2013 (edited) Hi Guys had a long talk with the mfg today. He told me he needs a couple of weeks to finish a part for the lpk package,and also this first batch of lowers wont be able to use the ar10 mags in addition to dpms style...I was told in the beginning that they would. On the 30 cal long lower..well he has to build the upper and a bcg extension for it..so no telling on when that will happen....im trying to get him to send a lower to one of the Mods for review....im starting to have second thoughts on this project...just sayin :) Wash Edited October 10, 2013 by washguy
edgecrusher Posted October 10, 2013 Report Posted October 10, 2013 Jeff, bail if it's no good, and don't look back. If this guy is not competent, off his rocker, whatever…… bail. It was a good try!
unforgiven Posted October 10, 2013 Report Posted October 10, 2013 You kind of had a feelin he a few loose srews brother Jeff,o well.You know how those guys from Texas are. :cookoo: <lmao>
Robocop1051 Posted October 10, 2013 Report Posted October 10, 2013 There's no rush if you don't have a monetary investment. Give the guy space to make it or break it on his own. If he pulls it off and your time is still available, you continue as planned. If he fails, and fades off into the shadows of unknown machinists, then you're out nothing.
washguy Posted October 10, 2013 Author Report Posted October 10, 2013 Robo I like the way you think....my sentiments too..I have no investment....it takes more than a few cnc machines to get a product to market :) Wash
shibiwan Posted October 10, 2013 Report Posted October 10, 2013 Robo I like the way you think....my sentiments too..I have no investment....it takes more than a few cnc machines to get a product to market :) Wash .....and perhaps that's where I could help. Let me know what you're looking for in a upper/lower and I'll design/manufacture along those specs. :D -S
98Z5V Posted October 10, 2013 Report Posted October 10, 2013 Wash, I'm still in, whatever the timeline is. <thumbsup>

Let me know what you're looking for in a upper/lower and I'll design/manufacture along those specs. :D -S a dedicated side charger lr308 upper would be nice. not the silly thing that fulton does, where they just cut the slot out of a regular upper that still has a normal charging handle slot, but one made that way to begin with. and for lower, both having the tiny cutout for the BADASS ambi safety as well as being set up like the AXTS for mag + bolt release. http://axtsweapons.com/products/AX762

The standard top charger slot is a PITA to machine if the upper is made out of solid billet, so the side charger makes sense. Edited October 10, 2013 by shibiwan
98Z5V Posted October 10, 2013 Report Posted October 10, 2013 and for lower, both having the tiny cutout for the BADASS ambi safety... That's something that actually needs to be machined in the upper receiver, man, not the lower. Interference is in the upper.
