Nice.

Get a decent barrel, and be careful on the weight, that's pretty much the biggest source of pounds.

What length you going?

Idk, i guess carbine would work, what's that like 16?

I got 7.5"

Mine is a pistol/carbine

Yeah. You can also do 14.5"with a pinned and welded muzzle device to get a shorter barrel without paying the feds to SBR.

I'll just go compliant....i need to prep fast shit feels like it's about to hit the fan

Unless it's specifically for a DMR role, not a main battle rifle, then I would never go over 16"

Like I said tho, you can be compliant with a pinned and welded flash hider or brake.

Yea, that requires more money than i have....i have a welder but it's out of juice..well....metal to melt with the fuel

You get the idea

This will bring a 13.7" barrel up to legal length when pinned and welded.

Which should be done by a gun smith for record.

Which would be nice if i could find one.

True

Pinning and welding isn't too hard to do. Worst part is welding, but doesn't have to be a big weld.

coilovers or armor....

Can coilovers reliably stop 7.62 from penetrating your chest and back?

That sale's pretty solid, but that lead time, sheesh haha. 8-10 weeks minimum

🤷

Unfortunately not sponsored, but you can snag a pair of Battle Steel level IV ceramics for $200, takes about a week to get to you unless they're swamped

As for carriers, Evike.com for cheapies

@LickMiNoodle link?

Yeah! One sec

That's very similar to the carrier I've had for years

thats my carrier

just need plates

Nice! It'll fit them thicker plates even with trauma pads, but they aren't a necessity with ceramic imo
