    Stick


    Board policy mandates I state that I shoot for BCM. I have also done work for 200 or so manufacturers within the firearm community. I am prior service, a full time LEO, firearm instructor, armorer, TL, martial arts instructor, and all around good guy.

    I also shoot and write for various publications. Let me know if you know cool secrets or have toys worthy of an article...

    Does a plain Jane FN patrol count?

    I am very disappointed that I missed out on their retro logo run of lowers last year. One of the few “missed opportunities” that actually irritates me.

    Someone mentioned the Pegasus lower on a thread here, and I missed it. But that gunbroker price isn’t that far off, I don’t think, though it doesn’t have a parts kit.

    I got a call last year about some upper, receiver and if I still wanted it. It had been so long, I had no clue what the gentleman on the other line was referring to. Then it hit me, it was the AR10B upper I was on the waiting list for since 2019. I screwed up my Noveske marked AR10 upper and couldn't find another one. Yeah they ran another batch.

    The lower and upper are both unassembled, maybe I'll make it whole again and SBR it.

    LRB lower in pistol form. VLTOR pistol buffer tube to satisfy those who care about such things.

    I can honestly say I have never heard of LRB before now.

    They manufacture M14 forged receivers. Top notch product. I think they dipped their toes with these M4 receivers. Sounds like some of the earlier units were iffy. I bought two and apparently got lucky with the quality and finish.
    Can you name this stock?
