What made you go to the UBR over the CTR? Looks like you have a fun afternoon ahead of you. :D

I'm sorry, it's not a CTR, it's an ACS. I like the stationary cheek weld of the UBR. Also the removable doors on the UBR's storage compartment.

I still haven't decided on the optics yet so I borrowed the glass off my Scar 17. After trying to decide between the Vortex and Surefire 556-212A flash hider I tentatively went with the Vortex. After some more consideration I settled on the BattleComp 1.5 compensator.

Ah, gotcha... So, you selling any of your old goodies?

Maybe. Depends on if my brother grabs any of it.:)

That battle comp look pretty sharp!

Yeah, just let me know. I'd be interested in that stock or the angled foregrip.
 
I'm kind of disappointed in Double Tap ammo. I placed an order for "in stock" ammo about a month and a half ago and it still hasn't shipped. I couldn't find a number so I emailed for a status a couple of weeks ago and haven't heard back. I've heard lots of good things about them so I wasn't expecting this at all.

I went ahead and placed a separate order through SGammo last night... I just hope it actually ships and gets here before we leave.

Edit: Looks like they added a phone number to their homepage... I'll follow up.

SGAmmo is a good outfit. I ordered a case of .308 from them recently. The order was on the UPS truck the next day.

Good to hear. I just got an email saying my order was completed, so that's promising.

DTA is in Utah so I'll give them another hour or so before I call.
 
lol why is everything out near the happiest city in the state? Gunnies in Ogden, Impact Guns also in Ogden I believe...

Oh I get it now. It's Mormon country. Mormons are told to be Republicans. Republicans like guns. Great success!
 
Well I called and it rings a few times and then gets the busy tone. I emailed them again but I'm not holding my breath.

Update: I got what seems like an auto-notification that my order has been changed to "processed". Hmm...

Am I better off building an upper maybe? I see more components than full assemblies lately but I'm just not sure if I will be biting off more than I can comfortably chew. :)

Depends. If you have access to the proper tools (armorer's wrench, roll pin/punch set, torque wrench, upper receiver block, vise, etc) then I say yes. If you don't, then you might be better off waiting. Rainier Arms and Bravo Company has uppers available now.

What upper specs were you looking at?
