Did the guy from Wisconsin manage to find an AR? With as many hints as he had, I think he was just kicking tires. Not quite accurate, Fairly sure I want a lefty.

I handed her Highlighted LINKS on a Silver Platter and she still fhuqked it up.
Rather IMPRESSIVE..................(grin) I understand you really liked that SS barrel, handy no doubt, but it's not like I lay my rifles in the water every time I catch a fish.......... re-hint.

Wylde chamber is not a bad thing.
SS is fine, but CM isn't bad. SS tend to die from one shot to the next at the end of their life while CM just fade away
If worried about corrosion etc... simply dura bore coat a CM. SS is not necessary. Quality of the barrel is more important than type of metal basically.
I'd not go less than 8 or 9 twist personally. There are reasons to, but I don't have any of them. I"ve rarely been unhappy with a 7 twist. Even 6.5 twists will shoot thick jacketed 52 smks... varmint 50ish the 6.5 will not, and even the 7s have toasted some thin skin Berger bullets years ago before they beefed up their 63s IIRC.

My Son brought home his new 'black rifle' last week, We've been getting it setup with optics and such......
These fricken things are addicting, Damn it anyway.......
Now I want one, and I have no clue.
Tell me what I want, whats good, what to avoid, yada yada....
I'm a lefty, so keep that in mind..
TIA. Buildja' a PSA 18" Rifle Gas FF Kit. LOTSA rifle for the very modest jingle and you'll gain the familiarity with what makes things tick. 18" PSA Rifle Kit RINK For $379.99Slap a CMC flatty trigger in it and you are there. Hint............. Stick, Looks like the kit comes with a trigger. Upgrade worth it? Any advice on stripped receiver? See if that PSA has a billet receiver. Thanks

Looks like BS is on "vacation".
I would replace the trigger, even if it's polished, it's still too heavy.
Personally, I don't see the point of billet receivers on 5.56 hunting guns, and certainly not the lower. Maybe someone can make a case for billet lowers in some sort of competition, but it won't be Highpower. I could see a billet lower if it was paired with a billet upper just for aesthetics. The lower doesn't do anything other than hold the pieces together. Not much stress.

Thanks Tyrone,
After reading all the great opinions on the PSA kit, I ordered one last night. This will be my first AR. I’ll pick up a trigger too. Any brand of receiver you recommend or are they kind of a horse apiece?

I like 2 stage triggers. You get a safe, light, final pull weight with them.
Right now, the best deal that I'm aware of is the LaRue MBT2S. It feels good and is about 26/28oz 1st & 2nd with the light spring in my gun.
I'm not a big fan of Anderson, but for lower, I'd buy something cheap. Some of the Anderson's are OK, some are weird colors. You'll probably need a short grip screw with them, or about 1/4" worth of washers. I like PSA, Aero, Spikes for budget lowers. There's a lot of others out there. Look for a deal, they aren't difficult to unload if you don't like them.

color of lower does not affect how it works just FYI for folks. Tyrone knows that I'm just tossing it out. All depends on if you are anal or not. Guns are a tool for me. Never really all that concerned about looks though I do have a couple of bolt guns in colors just because I could but I won't go out of my way to buy.... if blems are just color and not functional issues, roll with it.

Thanks With the Kit in your mitts,you can do as per whim. Slammed (3) together last night. PSA makes it easy and I'd source all from them,just to have it all in the same box and defer shipping.

Coming from a dumb ass that could rust a diamond, I'm surprised you'd do that. But really, you are so stupid I shouldn't be surprised that you have no clue about galvanic reactions.

Trybone,
Your Estrogen Surge is again reeling,might I suggest yet another 1000cc's of Vagisil,in your usual location? Hint. Congratulations?!?
Be sure to cite your Galvanic "Reasoning" betwixt barrel/receiver interface and ring/rail interface...if only to quantify your STUPIDITY even fhuqking further,by doing your best.
Hint.
Bless your heart.
LAUGHING!.................
