Love mine. Be even better once my can clears. http://i1075.photobucket.com/albums/w424/cfaulkner0006/IMAG0483.jpg View Quote Very nice rifle can I ask a question about your stock? What was the process and time line? I ordered mine last Sunday and received an acknowledgement but no other comms. Did it just show up one day or did you get any indication on when it shipped. |
|
Mine was ordered from the ammo source. I got shipping notification and tracking once they sent it. It hung out in New York at customs for about 20 days before heading to me. The brokerage fee was paid by check at time of delivery. My stock and a lot of peoples show up in three different shades and not looking too sharp. Cerakoting the stock, then microslicking the rails and bolt carrier really cleans things up.

I definititly will be cerakoting parts of the stock to match my lower/ upper. How long was the total process from order to receipt? |

You are technically importing the item so us customs charges a brokerage fee. If you haven't paid it yet one day you'll get a non descript Bill from ups in a brown envelope. My buddy ordered one after me and thought he didn't have to pay the fee and got the bill last week. For the bomber I love it. It takes some tinkering, and I did gave to ream my gas port for reliable use, but it runs great now. |

Sorry if this has been asked already, but does anyone know what hand-guard the actual AAC Honey Badger uses? I can't find anything on it, so I'm guessing it's some proprietary BS.

That's what I figured. The closest one I have found to it is the JP Modular M Series...

This project is a slow process. I received my Aero Precision COP today. Looks to be a good choice. I was able to get it for 10% off with free shipping.
Ammo Source is not my favorite supplier in the world by any means. Wish they were a little more forth coming. I was going to order a barrel from Aero and as soon as I got the funds.....out of stock . Any suggestions for a 7.5 or 8" 556 barrel?: |

Quoted: Any suggestions for a 7.5 or 8" 556 barrel?: View Quote We've got some left over from a production run that just came back from nitriding. They have had the extensions re-torqued already but the gas ports haven't been drilled yet. You can read some info about our match grade barrels here: http://micromoa.com/?page_id=996 'Most' people running 7.5's aren't running them suppressed so I'm planning on selling them WITH our parkerized non-adjustable gas blocks (which are NOT listed on our site and make in house for other manufacturer's) for $180. As mentioned at this link: http://micromoa.com/?page_id=855, it is not so simple to say X length barrel, X length gas system and caliber should use X size port. Variances in the rifling and bore diameter will affect the required port size. That said, these barrels will have optimized ports for running a standard spring and H2 buffer w/ brass cased .223 pressure ammo. I've also got an NEA CCS stock inbound and I plan on making the ports small enough to run that stock/buffer system optimally. I know the port sizes required for a lot of different barrels out there and these blanks consistently use port sizes smaller than what is typically seen out there.

If only that goddamit lower could show up.

How do you break apart the upper from the lower with the longer BCG?
Any one know when these will be back in stock? Or have one they want to part with? |

A bit of a faff to take apart and re-assemble, but not too too bad. At least it doesn't require 3 hands |

Just canceled my order for the CCS stock from SFRC in Canada and got one from Engage Armament in MD, a little cheaper too.

Most rifle cans will also never even start to wear out shooting only .300, whereas a 9mm can may not have the same service life. |
|
9mm cans are ultra light weight. Above mentions service life issues but I run a 12" with a 9mm can as my competition rifle. Well over 5k round count with little to know degradation of the baffle. It was the most economical choice for first can. Satisfies both pistol and rifle needs.

Hey brother,
Sorry to hit ya up on one of your older posts, but what kind of rail/handguard you have there? Specs: Length, Inside Diameter? I know I've seen it before but I can't figure it out. Really dig the build!!! |

Sorry to bring back this thread, but i recently got mine from ebay, from bravotac, got here within a week,
Im new to SBR's, and i need some advise/details Basically just need the OAL fully extended, with a 7.5 inch barrel with that NEA CCS Stock, And details, well what other calibers have been tested on it, ive so far used 5.56 and 5.45 thanks in advance, im new to this site too sry if im i sound like a greenhorn |

I have a 5.56 and a 300BO upper for mine. There is an entire SBR subforum here for questions: SBR FORUM I would assume the custom carrier with the nea stock will work with any caliber that can use a bolt that will fit into a standard carrier and utilize the shortened spring, if that makes sense? I would have no idea about calibers such as 9mm, 6.8, 6.5 etc but i know there has been some speculation on what will and won't work. p.s. Range Day! |

Not without some custom machine work, and then it would be iffy at best. 6.8 or 6.5? My guess is that either one would require some adjustment of the size of the gas port on the barrel, but would probably work. |
