    What hassle?
    I like QD suppressor systems for AR/semi platforms because direct thread suppressors have a tendency to loosen up with shooting, a good QD system won't allow that.

    Personally I'd look at something other than AAC, they were bought by the freedom group (The company that owns remington and marlin) and the customer service has dropped significantly, most of the AAC employees quit with the new ownership.

    Thanks for the tip. I really shouldn't have said hassle. I think I was fixating on a post I read somewhere. I like the qd as it would be able to service both my ar hosts

    Edit: now looking at silencerco specwar 556k

    Big fan of sportmansguide,they have quite a few things cheaper than other online stores so the membership pays for itself.

    Really want an ACOG for my Colt 6920 but just can't seem to pull the trigger on any optics because I keep changing my mind on what I want. First world problems.

    What's yalls preference on stripped uppers? Are they all pretty similar, just stick with a reputable brand and good to go? I've built a few lowers but always went with complete upper. Changing it up this time. Looked around some last night and saw Andersons for 50ish all the way up to 130ish for bcm and rainier. I'm not looking for billet.

    I just went with aero precision.
    They were on sale, they fit my lowers pretty well, and my research shows that like most lowers they are made by the same companies and just have different names on them.

    I haven't built them yet (I gave one to my sister) so I can't comment on how well they assemble.

    Found the info that I needed on the Tavor. Silly piece of plastic left in a slot from the factory.
    Carry on.
