Sometime you have to make a tactical withdrawal and attack in a different direction though.

I dont doubt that they were in stock nor do I doubt that they were that cheap. I just saw those posted and figured why not. They will only go down in price a few dollars but one day they will be worth more than gold.

If SHTF ever shows its ugly head, I will have more random booby traps around my house than Da Nang in 69.

That's why I went ahead and got those last week with foliage green followers. I'm gonna buy the 10 pack with yellow followers when back in stock.

Just my thing, but its easier to identify the gun is emtpy vs some sort of malfunction. Bright yellow/orange=empty. Brass=double feed/misfeed/etc.

A lil bump to this thread... My upper should be coming in the next couple weeks, any advice when putting it all together for the 1st time?

Also any advice on low priced optics? Was thinking about an EOTech clone but now I'm not so certain.

If its a complete upper you just line up 2 holes and push the pins in.

Rather than assemble my lower and LPK, I brought them to a local gunsmith. Should have it back in a couple of weeks. Waiting patiently to find the right complete 300BLK upper. The barrel length needs to be 16 inches to avoid an NFA tax correct?
