In my opinion, there's no reason to wait for a rifle right now with the market being like it is. What is it about Seekins that draws you to that brand? What sort of configuration are you looking for?

If I needed a rifle right now, I'd buy a complete BCM upper (in whatever configuration I preferred) and build a stripped lower of my choosing. You'd have a damned good rifle for at or under $1,000.

SEEKINS makes good stuff for sure, but I don't think I'd wait for one of their rifles when you can build your own with SEEKINS parts. Also SWFA makes a rifle that is branded for them, but all the parts are SEEKINS parts.

I built a clone to one because of your same feedback you got. I Might be willing to part with because I might go in a different direction

Legos. I use lots of seekins and mega parts but I have never gotten any junk from Rainier, Palmetto State or even JSE. Use what you want to build what you want.

SWFA is where I buy all of my Seekins parts, as well as optics and other parts/accessories. They have great prices, employees are members here, they're located in Texas so shipping is really quick.

Note: they're online inventory is not live, so give them a call to order. Also, use THF8 as a promo code and get 8% off your order, or use THFFS for free shipping.
