Got a Wilson Combat billet matched set in the mail today. Gonna build a 14.7" Recon with a pinned brake and all Wilson parts. Merry Christmas to me. Never mind the munchkin fingers.
Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

Probably gonna do a 6.8SPC but thinking maybe 458 Socom. Gonna use all Wilson Combat parts and maybe Form 1 it as an SBR.
Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

Nice.
Haven't had it in years but never spit any out. I am a sucker for happy endings and strapped cowboys.

I ended up with 2 of the Wilson Combat reviever sets because the first one I ordered was on backorder but I wasn't told. I bought another then the original shipped. Was gonna sell one but decided to SBR it instead. The first I built into a 300 Blackout with 14.7" WC Recon barrel with a welded brake. All WC parts except trigger.
Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

That is just plain ole ugly and I would get rid of it. Being the humanitarian I am, you can just send it to me so you can avoid the embarrassment.
