Hey guys!  I’m not sure how many people are around from 2012, but if you were active in the LaRue forum back then, you might remember a little project we did as a group.  
Here is a link if you want to read the whole story.  

2011 Rifle Project

I’m excited to say that Mark LaRue has given the green light to do another one of these projects.  I am hoping that there are a lot more parts and pieces out there than there was in 2012 and this should be another huge success.  Everyone involved in the 2012 project was incredible to work with and we had a lot of fun.  I hope this will be the same.  

How it works:  If you have a part or piece of an AR-15 that you aren’t using (preferably LaRue if possible) post what you have and I will start a list.  Last time, we had a lot of people donate money.  That money was used to buy an upper that nobody had to donate, a LaRue rifle case, and helped pay for shipping.  If you don’t have anything to donate but still want to help, we can do the same thing this time.  Once we get started, things seem to run pretty smoothly.  
After the rifle and included swag is completed, we will hold a raffle.  The money from the raffle will be 100% donated to a charity.  The charity chosen this time is Warriors Ascent.  

Warriors Ascent Charity

If there are any questions, comments, concerns…PLEASE don’t hesitate to contact me.  This is a completely transparent project and everyone’s involvement is essential and appreciated.  
Last time we did this, I got a lot of questions about why I was doing this.  Just to address that issue upfront, and avoid some confusion, here is a little backstory on the first project – and the continued reason for this project.





2011 proved to be a bad and challenging year for me as the result of a work related incident.  As bad as this situation was, the help that I received was overwhelming.  I promised myself that when I was able to do so, I wanted to give back somehow.  This is how I decided to do so.  At this point, I have some free time and just wanted to continue another project.  Honestly, the people I met and got to converse with during the first rifle was incredible and I made a lot of great friends.  I continue close relationships with a lot of those guys today.  


Mark LaRue has started this project off with the donation of a LT Lower.  Thanks for the awesome generosity Mr. Larue!!!

I was sure the first post was going to be Nut-N-Fancy, offering to check the build for reliability when it was finished  :)

Down

WE wouldn't let that happen, now would we.

I don't have any parts worthy of putting on this rifle build but in for the final push when it happens.

In!

IN!  

I'll donate a MBT for the lower.

AWESOME!!  Thanks so much.  Ill add it to the list.

Dennis

What color furniture did you decide to go with?

Why is this my decision? :)  UDE might be nice, since we are going with the whole LaRue theme? What do you think?

All my extra parts turned into rifles all by themselves.

In for the final push though with some cash and swag

If you decide for UDE, I've got a RAT kit I can donate.

UDE would be perfect

Why wasn't I notified? In.

Sounds good. Shoot me an addy and I'll get it rounded up and mailed.

Check your decoder ring.

The barn light being lit up wasn't enough to get you headed in the right direction?

Thank you my friend. What exactly do you have? The RAT stock? Just want to make sure I keep the list accurate.

Yes. I'll see what other stuff I've got and shoot you a message before mailing to see if they're useful for the project.

$5

If it's UDE, I have a New UDE MOE Pistol Grip, some UDE index clips, UDE hand stop and a 30rd PMag I'll gladly donate.   I also have a set of lightly used Troy Flip up BUIS in black, not LT branded but I'll donate them if we don't get an LT branded set.  

I'd also be good for some $ as well.  You know where to find me...

in!

eta - parts:
SD buffer spring & LaRue recv'r extension & a standard buffer

I'm in for a new HP, MP Bolt carrier group.

LaRue LoPro gasblock ready to ship. Addy?

I can add an LPK with some enhanced parts.

I'm still in for a MBT. Think I have a BADASS selector on hand too.

I know I have some UDE parts to add: A-PEG, index clips and GAP's

Have to see what else is in my parts bins to add.

Let me dig around in my parts bins DUK.

I have a couple Stealth Barrels I could offer up, depending on what length you are looking for.

Let me know which barrel length is selected and I will add a gas tube to the LoPro gas block.

...In for whatever I got, or can swing, that'll help.....

I've got some PMAGS.

Looks like all you need is an upper and a hand guard now. I know I don't have an extra larue upper but will check for a hand guard.post the barrel length when you find out and that would help.

I have a standard mid length hand guard that has been rattle-canned green. It's yours if you want it...

Mark,

Would you let us buy up a stealth 2.0 for this?

Can we all chip is doods?

Ummmmm

Ignant

Apparently

They said we need and upper and hand guard....

whats your malfunction

S2S already offers a 2.0. This is the confusion I was mentioning.

Never seen it, he could have said that. Good then this rifle is dunzo

Apparently I missed it also several times because I just read this entire thread again and I saw nothing about someone offering up a Stealth 2.0 upper and rail.

Guess it's done then so you won't need anything else.

Swag, lots of swag.

Great response so far!  :)

List has been updated !!!  We are moving right along, thank you guys!

I sent some messages about the uppers / barrel, so that issue should be figured out soon!

Excellent...Thanks again!

Dennis

Very Very kind and generous of you....thank you very much for all the help!
