Damn JL you're one helluva task master  With several pauses to take pics, hone the trigger & snip a spring & counting clean up too the Krieger project took about 2hrs.Attach barrel to CMT upper  Carefully slide free float hand guard over gas block & screw it on.  Step 2 or so  <insert music from Jeopardy> Brief pause while I looked for the forward detent pin after launch  80% along  Almost there  It's official. Build number 6 is done   |

Ditto, you got days at the reloading bench playing Mad Hatter/Rocket Scientist, and that's after you get done reworking the trigger to a pull low/clean enough to actual shoot a descent group without self-induced flyers trying to fit the trigger!!!!!!!

HA!
TWO STEPS ahead of ya I did the trigger job during assembly & just this morning I finished the last of 3500 rounds of 55gr ammo. I do have 1k of Nosler ballistic tips to load up yet though.  Winters in Michigan make for plenty of reloading time. Note the sheepleflage' ammo cans. Those are dishwasher detergent buckets. |

C'mon man where is the 2 stage trigger? You cant have all the other fancy stuff and then screw around with a modified stock trigger!! Get a Jewel or a Gieselle. Something, anything other than a stock trigger.

Total cost $894 with optics. I shop carefully in EE & the auction sites along with a couple prefered vendors.
