    I got the barrel & BCG from Optics planet - CMMG, Inc Barrel and Bolt Group Kit, 4.5in. MT 4140CM, 22LR 22D5B6E.

    When I ordered it I also got a 4" hand guard but it wasn't instock. This is what I hate about Optics Planet, you order it, then find out it's not instock.
    Ended up going with the M-lock version of this: https://www.veriforcetactical.com/p...-free-floating-handguard-monolithic-top-rail/

    Pretty sure it's the same rail Optics Planet had listed on their site: GUNTEC USA 4in Ultra Lightweight Thin M-Lok Free Floating Handguard w/Monolithic Top Rail,Black GT-4MLK

    If you want to run the S&W Mags (very reliable and easy to load) you need this adaptor: https://www.redi-mag.com/index.php?l=product_detail&p=52

    Was going to get a Ruger RPR but I think I'm going with a Tikka instead.

    Any input?

    OK.

    My New Year's Resolution is to build my own AR-type rifle. I have no idea where to begin.

    Ready, Set, Go!

    I have an RPR in .308. shot like shit out of the box. Sent back to Ruger 3 times, they said nothing wrong w/ grouping. A friend bought one & then upgraded his barrel. I took his take off barrel to my gunsmith & swapped them out & now it’s a shooter. Would I buy another? Nope. Lots of better choices today that guarantee sub MOA & include a target. Ruger guarantees nothing. Mine.[​IMG]

    Thanks. They are a lot of fun to shoot...they point, handle, and weigh about the same as a .22. Light and quick. I'd like to get my hands on one in .44 Mag as well, but won't hold my breath on that one.

    You need a lower, upper, and myriad of accessories and upgrades. Budget dictates a lot. I would, and do, upgrade the trigger. I prefer Geissele SSA-E two stage. I've purchased one as cheap as $160 but only saw that price once and recently. They have a "lesser" version I wouldn't hesitate to buy if on a tight budget. If it's really tight then a PSA EPT trigger for $40 is a decent solution. The 'one' I've handled has zero take up, broke like a carrot and over travel was as expected on a mil spec trigger. It is heavy but there's noting wrong with that unless you're looking to make it a SPR.

    I forget the guys name but there is someone with a youtube channel who goes around searching with his metal detecter and he more often than not finds old firearms sunk in nasty mudd deep under water.

    always amazed at how often he pulls up old guns.

    I will share the link when I find it

    Yeah house fire. It's terrible when you see nice firearms just wasted.

    Paranoia about that is actually what made me upgrade my safe to a fire resistant model a few years back.

    "RECOIL" Magazine did a piece on these earlier this year, of course it was a positive review. Been wondering how they actually perform with an unbiased user.
