I thought that I should share with the group. BRD has hit me again. 3rd AR since joining the site.

Kept it simple this time:

LMT 14.5 w/SDI extended A2
LMT Defender 2000 w/Sopmod Stock and 2 stage trigger
Bravo Company Ion Bonded M16 BCG

Just picked up the lower today, haven't even taken off the tag.

I also bought a Sig P226 to make me feel less guilty about the BRD.

I feel your pain.  My BRD is getting worse and I don't know what to do about it.  

Nice looking AR. At least your BRD is getting you to get good looking rifles.

I'm currently afflicted with the SDM-R variety of BRD.  I can tell the 14.5 variety is next.

That's excitingly handy.

I contracted BRD this past January 08' when home on vacation, it was aweful. The wife gave it to me! Now it has seemed to spread as the second bout has just hit. I say it's the wifes fault, that is what I tell her. She just keeps buying the stuff, it's crazy and I don't know what to do at times (well maybe). She just ordered a complete lower yesterday and should have it in hand by the end of the week and the complete upper should be there too.

Damn me for being down range and not home truely enjoying the sickness and my wife. Man I really do miss my wife.

You can make BRD stop. There are a couple of easy ways. They are called NFA-D and pre-89-D.

Stay safe and come back home and shoot those rifles!

No cure for BRD, so might as well learn to live with it.

Very nice build BTW. Simple, but quality.

Stop it??? HAH!   I predict 66 MILLION BRD freeks by 2012.   This thing is growing
exponentially.  It might stop when the world supply of aluminum is used up!
.....and you thought anthrax was contageous !

i'm slowly piecing together rifle number 2 and upgrading rifle number 1 as I go.

Looks good, you may want to check out the magpul enhanced trigger guard--I"m a big fan. All my AR's have them.

A crack habit would be cheaper.

I just got into this BRD in the past couple months.  My first was a Sabre Defence SPR $2K, add bad ass scop $1200, add Larue mount and all kindsof stuff from Larue $400.  I just got it dialed in this past Saturday, So thats $3600 in so far.......

I spoke with Noveske today and they are putting together a price for a custom 23" barreled .204 rifle for me.......  Dang it, I got a bad case.  I have been looking at lowers today as well for a short barrled carbine build...  I was warned and I did not listen.
Is there therapy for this?

Here is my Sabre.....

Yes. But it is not cheap or effective. You WILL relapse. So my suggestion is to save your therapy $ and put it into more guns.

Dang!  You guys aren't making me feel any better!  I am only on build #2 and I am already planning build #3!!!  Is there a support group, or 12 step program....  hock.gif

I am curious about the IonBonded BCG.  Have you shot it much?  How is the cleanup?

Nice rifle. That's the exactly the same setup I plan on building when I get back from deployment!  Well maybe a SBR but how much did that end up costing you?

4 buy stock
5 buy bcg
6 buy fcg
7 buy barrel
8 buy handguard
9 buy muzzle device
10 buy optics

I find it disturbing that we refer to BRD as an 'affliction.'
Something that makes one so happy and brings such joy!
Is something wrong with me?!?!?!?

I haven't got around to shooting with the Ion Bond BCG. My other LMT has the LMT enhanced BCG. I put roughly 400 rounds through it this weekend and it worked great.

To the gentleman asking how much I spent, I am afraid I cannot answer that here. My GF reads these forums too. Price it out on GTS.
