CamoMike's WEVO 50k Barrel buiild

[camomike]

I figured a picture to start with my upper and lower build kit will work. My trigger arrives in the mail tomorrow, and my receivers the next day.... Then it's going to be a long wait



My list so far is:
- Aero precision forged upper/lower
-Core 15 slotted trigger guard
-B5 systems grip 23
-BAD-ASS standard/thin 90
-POF enhanced finger placement trigger ( Got a hell of a deal on it, hope it works and wasn't just a gimmick - wanted to try it since I first saw it...)
-Fortis hammer in Nickelene(delighted at how well it matched up in color to the barrel)
-SS mid gas tube / milspec pin kit / FA-dust cover
-Fortis keymod Vertical grip
-Parallax Tactical light weight adjustable gas block
-Tactical link EBAL
-Armalite CAR spring and buffer


And the piece that convinced my wife to let me spend more money:

-The SS Rainier Arms Select Fluted Barrel - Courtesy of WEVO/ the admins / Rainier and the rest of the sponsors. I do really, truly appreciate it. This made my year.



My "white" receivers are showing up to my FFL Wednesday from Aero precision, then will be dropped in the mail to WMD for NiB coating. Wait time of 6-9 weeks will give me time to save up for my stock and rail.

I'm trying to spread some of my cash across the manufactures that chipped into the give away as a way of giving back... Of course they make it easy, making sick gear and all.

That barrel is a beauty. Sounds like a setup for a nice rifle.

[KevinBLC]

Yes!!! Another build thread! Love these.

Just built my buddy's rifle using that barrel and a fortis rev. Beautiful piece. Can't wait to see the finished product

Mike,

Glad something like winning a barrel of all things could make your year. You can't go around now and say you "never win anything" anymore. Thanks for being apart of the forum. Can't wait to see what that pile of parts you're collecting turns into.

Mike,

Glad something like winning a barrel of all things could make your year.

Was a hard past couple of years for me. My mom passed after a 5 year struggle. Lost a lot of really good friends in a falling out(I'm better without them, they were users). Stress at work caused a doctor to tell me "Quit your job or die of a heart attack before 35, you choose" Being unemployed for 2 years brought on it's own kind of stresses. Thank god my wife brings in the money she does, she kept us afloat. With out her, I would have probably lost my mind too. Just got back to work about 2 months ago, and it feels really good. Really missed the social aspect of life. When I say it made my year, it honestly did. This was one of about 2-3 positive things that happened all around the same time. Building this rifle is gift to myself for pulling through, getting a job and getting back on my feet. So even though it's something as simple as a rifle barrel, it means a lot more than that to me. So in turn, thanks for welcoming me into the forums. This is a really great group of folks, and I appreciate the comradery.

As long as I'm running the WEVO giveaways, he won't be winning anything....

I actually sent him a package, but you give him an inch, he wants a mile.

[John Hwang]

Looks like a sweet build
