This is a work in progress, I will get more pics as it progresses.

So almost 2 years ago I decided to SBR the lower on my 14.5" LaRue PredatOBR.  I had the MD unpinned so I could use my AAC suppressor and decided to wait since LaRue would be offering different barrel lengths/cals and Handguard lengths.  I have no doubt when LaRue releases some they will be great, but I gave up on waiting (got inspired by another member here) and decided to make it happen myself.   I ordered:

12" LaRue Stealth Barrel (cutting to 10.5")
SLR Sentry 7
LaRue gas tube
LaRue tOBR barrel nut
Sent my Handguard to get cut

Old 14.5" set up


Everything broken down


Gonna cut to here


12" barrel (sending to get cut to 10.5")

Curious, while I can understand sending the rail to be cut to a desired length as rails preference differs greatly from person to person, why did you order a Larue barrel just to cut it down when there are so many quality 10.5" barrel offerings out there?

As far as I know LaRue uses a proprietary mounting collar that can only be used with their barrels.

This isn't true.  You can use other barrels in there but you have to use the tOBR barrel nut.

I bought a LaRue barrel because I got it for a great deal from a member on here and I wanted a LaRue barrel.
