Are you guys gonna be at the Lexington show next weekend? (I think it's next weekend)

I saw the thread about your 'new' more matte finish on the uppers....
do you also have a new batch of stripped lowers that are 'matte'? -This excites me because I Have not bought one of your lowers up till now because of the 'sheen' you spoke of- didn't match any of my uppers!

Also- will one of your stripped lower's 'seam's line up with your uppers' seams? - the raised ridge next to the bolt release specifically...?

We will have a setup at Lexington this weekend. I'm not sure who will have our lowers there at this time, but someone should. On the seams, sometimes they line up, sometimes they don't, it depends on which forging house the forgings came from at the time.

It depends on the sub and the availability. We've used Cerro, Anchor Harvey, Cardinal, Alcoa, and I probably left out one.

gotcha...thanks. I ask because I want to patronize a Ky business, but I also want a 'matching' rifle.

-last Question, I promise - are the new finish 'matte' lowers available yet, and do you have a 10.5" A2 upper in the matte finish?

I believe that they just came in from the coater before SHOT, so they're here and being shipped out. A-2's in matte finish should not be a problem.

I used to do that show all the time, then they messed up the advertising one time, and it was never the same after that. We may look and see if it can make it back on the schedule again and give it another shot.

If you do, make it public. I'd go back there just to give you all business. That place is packed for gun shows.
