Guns & Hinderers

Watchknut.... Your XM almost matches your gun perfectly!

Nice gun by the way! And again what caliber?
 
This might be off topic, if so my apologies.. Although, I promise to include pics w/ an XM in the future ;)

Anyway, I'm going to build an SBR - looking to go the form 1 route, but never done it before. Anyone here have any hints/tips? I've been/will be doing other research but I like/trust you guys :) I already have an NFA trust set up..

Ok, I got it all figured out ;) So, here's some pics of my growing AR family (Wharnies included for relevance ;) ):

So, I chose to go the form 1 route for my SBR by "building" one. So, I picked up this Noveske 11.5" upper and Spike's Tactical lower that will be registered as the SBR. Since I did it this way I was able to bring the upper home today, just can't legally put it on the lower.. (so I won't). I also put money down on a Gemtec G5 suppressor, which I do have to go the Form 4 route so it'll stay in the store until I get the tax stamp back - hopefully in less than the 15 months ATF is now estimating (gun store guy is saying hopefully more like 10 months, we'll see). But, since I'm doing the Form-1 for the SBR online, hopefully that one will only take 6 months or so..

So, I also HAD to buy the Noveske Afghan 14.5" (w/ pinned and welded flash hider for a legal 16" OAL) upper. That was my compromise for the day :) My wonderful wife has agreed to start shooting 3-gun with me (and she will probably kick my butt) on the condition that she gets her OWN AR (you know because it'll be sighted in differently, optics, she's a lefty (although has always run right-handed weapons since they're easier to come by down range), etc, etc..) So, we had been looking at this really nice 16" LWRC IC for her. Then, I got the brilliant (to me anyway) idea that we could get TWO uppers and the lower for just a "little bit" more than the full LWRC rifle (just ignore that I still need to pick up optics, BUIS, a vertical grip, different stock, and few other odd and ends to set up the new one just right...). So, she'll get "her" AR and I'll get a new lower and SBR upper. Probably pick up another, most likely Noveske, lower to make hers once I get the tax stamp for this lower..

Thanks Wowcoop, the P12 is a very nice gun, sometimes I look back at all the guns that I traded and sold and kick myself in the ass. If I sell anything now it's to upgrade to a better version or something on the bucket list.

The flag in my picture was flown in Iraq over "Forward Operating Base Shield Baghdad " on Memorial Day Weekend during Operation Iraqi Freedom 2007. It was given to me by my good friends in the FBI that were deployed there for some work that I did in support of our troops, I'll leave it at that.
 
Joe that's awesome man!! Very cool!! I was going to ask you about your flag. It does look special in that case. Thanks for sharing that with us :)
