Haha, that's a great pic. I was thinking he drew the short straw and only got handguns while all the other guys got long guns :P

man what the hell kind of poice dept is that?  One guy got an ak with more pistol mags than he probably knows what to do with, one guy got a mini14, one guy got an ar15, one guy got duelie pistols and one guy who has what looks like an ak as well, except he's staring at the black guys ass. 

Not to mention the "tactical gear" they're wearing.  Some got tactical vests, one guy wearing full camo with a flaming gay backpack on, and two guys wearing t-shirts like they just got a couple blokes off the street, gave them some guns and told them "HEY, watch my back...i'm going in".

i really wanted one of those things too except i saw the NUTNFANCY video on youtube.  Looks like loading that thing is a pain in the ass and the selector switch that swaps tubes seems like a weak and high/easy wear point.  I also HATE the safety button.  The "push through" safety reminds me of a freaken crossman pellet gun i once had.

No idea. Probably somewhere south of the border. The one guys backpack reads "POLICIA". Either way, they look like they mean serious business.

Yeah man that reloading part for the ksg is just insane. Stick the muzzle in dirt, remove all points of contact from your firing stance, use your firing hand to load, etc, lol.

Planning on doing a ground up AR build. I have a slab sided SP series Colt AR, but that rifle is strictly safe queen. So I've been doing a bunch of research on what parts I'd like to build with.

Only two things I'm still in the air about.

1. Free float or monolithic upper receiver. Am trying to decide on either Mega Machine rifle length monolithic upper, or Mega Billet Upper w/ KAC URX rifle length.
2. Barrel: Noveske 16" or the Rainier Ultramatch 16". Both are SS, Noveskes are 5.56 off a Pac Nor blank, Rainier is a .223 Wylde off a Shilen blank turned by White Oak Armament.

Throw up some suggestions if anyone has experience/input.

my lmt monolithic.  Personally i don't see what the big deal is with these monolithic rails.  Sure you can mount an optic on that spot where the rail meets the receiver, however i own 2 ar's and don't have a problem avoiding that ONE notch that the monolithic rail offers. 

The downside of the mono is that if you drop your rifle and you dent your rails, you're fucked.  At least with a regular FF rail, you can replace as needed without having to replace the entire upper.  Even merely sliding a polymer tango down vert grip has already scratched the finish on my lmt.  I dunno.  I would choose standard ff rail over mono.

Haven't really looked at using the parts you are.  I did a varmint rifle and ended up using a Daniel Defense upper with a VTAC free float handguard.

For the barrel I went with a Shilen, but to me it seems a bit finicky if you don't pay strict attention to case prep if you reload your ammo.  I am also having some loading issues even with commercial ammo (PMC) which I think are either related to my mag catch not being tight enough or the chamber of the barrel being so tight that it's facing loading issues...........dunno, I've really only shot the upper 3 times in about 8 months. 

I would recommend looking at your overall budget because I just piece mealed the upper together and before I knew it the thing was pretty expensive (a lot having to do with the barrel).

Thanks for the responses.

Ichi- Main reason I've been looking at a Monolithic build, is to reduce receiver flex. Now it's debateable if this is truly an issue with an AR (as we know there are litterally hundreds of AR manufacturers out there that work just fine with FF handguards). On the other hand, flex is inherent in having two pieces held together by a mechanical device vs. a once piece milled receiver. Is it a deal breaker? No not at all. But it is something worth looking at while I'm still in the decision process...

GZire- Deffinently running my numbers on the build. Not surprisingly I'm looking 2.5k w/o optics on my "build" sheet. Again, I'm in no hurry for this build, just taking my time. So far each part I've placed on the list has something a standard MFR rifle wouldn't get me. (ex: BCM BCG is a F/A BCG w/ crane o-ring and improved extractor spring already installed, shot peened/MPI/double staked carrier key).

Yeah I didn't hit 2.5k maybe 2k. Didn't think I was even going to get close, but when I added up the invoices...... :wacko:

Anyhow.......let us know when you get that badboy assembled.
