Man I am dying to go to the range with it! I thought it was going to come Saturday and than today.. now I hope it comes tommorow the weather is beautfiul down here.

BTW Tim just emailed me and said only 3 people have received theirs so I guess we are in good shape in terms of the item being delivered.

Damn!!!

Well I really didn't want to feed my BRD anyway. Anyone know a good 12 step program for BRD?

3 carbines, 3 20" rifles, 3 SBRs, and 3 M16s

I recieved mine today & with I could say I was as happy as others. My rebuild was finished black instead or grey & it has a damaged front barrel handguard cap(dented) Reciever has a gouge under the finish.

All in all, It still was a great deal but as things usually work with me, I usually pull the short straw.

I will post pictures when I can tommorow.

Reciever is early counterbored front lug, barrel marked on underside of front CMP B & C on FSB

Barrel assembly was packaged securely.

EDIT: Tim said if I wasn't happy that he would refund my money. Talk about service! I realise these are surplus. Scratch & dents are to be expected. Still, one of my best deals ever off the internet & a Big +1 is in order!

I got mine yesterday also. While it still is a super deal, my two are a long way from new. One of them I think will be very, very, good after cleaning. The other one shows a lot of wear on the finish of the upper and the handguards are very rough.

They both appear to have new barrels and are both marked chrome bore.

All in all, they are well worth what I paid for them and I couldn't have asked for any better communication from a seller.

Thumbs up to Tim for making this possible.

Got mine today. CK upper. C MP CHROME BORE on the barrel. All Colt, through and through. Looked a little ratty when I opened it but I put it in the reciever block and stripped it completely. I mean everything. Two "tabs" broken off bottom of right handguard, not even noticable really.

It cleaned up NICE. Not a scratch or ding anywhere. Me happy. Thanks Tim!

I took some pics. Mine appears to have the original finish. It's a really nice early colt gray. THere are some handling marks, but overall very nice. Some of the other pieces for my retro build are in the photo too.

And here is a counter-bored front lug:

Thanks again, Tim.
