| WOW! I actually won! The best thing I've ever won before now was a nearly worn out H&R .22 on a raffle years ago. I think a Stealth 18" will finish out a build I've had in the safe really well. Thank you so much Mark LaRue and Mark Fingar for doing this! |

Not only did I get my barrel, apparently Mark gave me a job too!
The email address line on my invoice says "[email protected]". Thanks Mark! I'll sweep up the aluminum chips and polish the Navion before I head down to the tunnel.

WOOHOO!! A LaRue package was awaiting me at home when I got home on Friday. I chose the 16" PredatAR barrel and can't wait to build a rifle around it. I plan to share the included hat & Dillo with a friend since I already have a few of each. Thank you Mark! |

A 20" Stealth barrel was waiting for me when I got up yesterday...and an unexpected hat and 'dillo!
Larue Tactical/Mark: Y'all are a class act. That was fast shipping, and a really nice bonus that you didn't have to add. Thanks so much! |
Shoot-to-kill: I even went out of the way to tell the people at the YMCA I identify as a free range dolphin, then they got all uppity when I shit in the pool.

| Seems like as good a place as any to ask....I won a barrel (Thanks again Mark). I have built lowers but never built an upper. I picked an 18" stealth with m4 ramps. What else do I need to tackle this build (parts & tools) to build a complete upper. pen to suggestions for specific items you have used. |
