Aero Precision Presidents’ Day sale!

$20 off $100 purchase combined with free shipping and Keymod blowout sale and I just ordered a 15” Quantum anodized handguard and threw in a gas tube just to get over $100 so both delivered are under $84.

Any progress

Update:

All - So sorry it has taken so long for me to get the ball rolling on this, but I am pleased to say that both my financial issues and Covid-19 are well behind me, and I am ready now to move forward (Covid-19 wasn't really an issue, but...).


Well, maybe Covid-19 is having a little impact in re: the shortages of supplies and gear. Certainly in re: manufactured inventory (everyone seems to be "out of stock" due to the demands). I'm not sure, frankly, if I should now wait until after the elections to do my shopping. If Pres. Trump wins, I'm sure the prices will probably go down.... If Biden wins, I don't even want to think about it....


Thus, I think I will go ahead and, at least, get a couple of lowers to work on. Thankfully, you gave me the link to "PrimaryArms" above because that's one of the few places I've actually found product "in stock." I see an Aero Precision ME41 lower for $89.24. I may get two of them for that price. I also see a deal on the site for discounted Geissele trigger groups:


1) Geissele Automatics G2S Two Stage AR-15 Trigger .154" $129.99

2) Geissele Automatics Super Semi-Automatic Enhanced SSA-E Two Stage AR-15 Trigger .154" $199.99


I was always leaning toward Geissele triggers. Now comes the upper and the BCGs. Not sure which of those yet but the first priority is securing the lowers and before the election..



After that, I'll look at some other things (maybe a Rock Island Armory 1911 .45acp and I'll get the extra grips. Then get another Mossberg 930 JM Pro. But we'll see.


But first things first.... those lowers.... , I'll be looking to your for help in building the list of all the parts I need. I'll get back to you shortly with what I see as that list.



Thanks all. Look forward to getting this thing going!

I’m ready when you are.

Well, we are on our way. Two lowers ordered.



1) Anderson Manufacturing - AR-15-A3 AR-15 Stripped Lower receiver


2) Radical Firearms Forged Stripped AR-15 Stripped Lower Receiver (RF-FL).


Plus some spare parts including:


1) Geissele Automatics G2S Two Stage AR-15 Trigger .154"




Expect shipping to my FFL in 5 business days. We'll see. But now I have to look at all the other parts, including the uppers.

Wait..What??? I owe him $20.00???


Seriously, the two lowers are on order, waiting for shipment to my FFL. Could take as little as 5 and as much as 10 bus. days, since they have to verify my FFL. Now, I'm piecing together the other parts lists I need, including the tools, etc. I think the toughest thing so far is attempting to find matching uppers (and in stock) for the two lowers I ordered (see above for details).



We'll see.

By the way...... you really don’t need anti-walk pins for the trigger group. If you want a safety net, then get them. I have never had pins walk out on me.

Fair enough.... Thanks. I have one trigger group on order (Geissele) but I don't know what extra it needs. I'll keep that in mind.
