They did for just a few days but then brought them back out.I was in my local Academy this morning and was surprised they were selling scary black rifles. Thought they quit.
Thinking outside the box here.
Buy a Colt and put a really good trigger of your choosing.
Right or wrong, silly or serious.....it seems to me that all things that Colt discontinues appreciates more than they should.
They oft get maligned, though I've never had one break or fail to function.
Actually I'm with you on the custom build.
Good barrel first.
Good trigger second.
After that everything is a distant third.
Did you say Colt? Cue the... Oh, wait, I think he is banned at the moment.
I’d look for the PSA NiB bcg & EPT combo, usually found for $100. I’d seriously consider different rails, too, but don’t have anything off the top of my head to recommend.
... Now I'll need to get an optic as well and i was thinking the Vortex Strike Eagle 1-8
A few points, though maybe too late. Watch out with bad levers. They can cause malfunctions
Nib is nice, but any added lubricity to the carrier rails will get worn off after a few mags.
You could have saved a bit and gotten an MBT 2s instead of Geissele. The g2s is nice, but the larue is cheaper, and is a bit better laid out
Bcm barrels can be quite accurate, but some can be real dogs. For the price, faxon makes good options, and if you want to spend 200 or so on a barrel, larue is within reach.
Be careful with luthar stuff. Of 4 a1 sight parts kits, i was able to get 2 sets that went together correctly.
I'd personally get like an a2 flash hider, and get a nicer handguard.
Hmmmm I’ve not seen any loss of the NIB coating on my 300 blackout after thousand of rounds.
