That’s what I thought. Does brownells mark it on the front of the magwell?

Correct

I haven't paid much attention until recently to the 416 market. Looks like after the Brownells lowers dried up, those are now a hot commodity. I should have picked up another when gator and I were talking about a 14.5" build.

10.4" uppers have also dried up and uber tough to find even at 4k. Looks like those PD trade in supply has all but disappeared.

I got an email today from Weapon Outfitters advertising 10.4" barrels with the Hurricane Butterfly label on them, but it also says they're made in the US. I would doubt Marvin would be making them since he already was selling them through his shop. I guess someone else got contracted to make some.

No interest from my end, but thought I'd mention it.

Check with the Taliban.

Check with the Taliban.

I think they just have all the Colt Lowers the Cloners are looking for.

ZING!

Be funny if it wasn’t true. Think they’d give me a good price on an aircraft?

Nope. I saw a pic of a Tali with one.

You could probably score a Blackhawk for some cases of 7.62x39...

I'm sure they have change-averse people too...

An impulse buy, but they were on "sale." Pardon the weed.

Nice !

Nice score! Other than the stupid price and limited supply keeping the price even stupider, what happened to the Geissele rails? Seems like every rifle I've seen lately has the stock rail on it.

Aren't you glad you picked up that extra Brownells Lower way back when?

Those are now going for stupid money now that they've dried up. Weird how that works out.

I don't really pay attention to G-availability nowadays, other than keeping an eye out for MR556 triggers (I'd like to have one more). However, I believe the original HK rail was discontinued and replaced by the newer model that has the same compatible lockup system. I don't know the models, but I think UW has one.

Indeed. And I was glad to pick up the one after that, too. The M27 needed the "correct" engraving for my OCD. (It's since been updated with the correct lens covers and VFG/bipod. I just don't have a picture of it.)

That looks great man.

I somewhat regret not grabbing a few more BRN lowers when they dropped to $199... but I definitely don't regret not having to buy another 416 upper to satisfy my OCD for competition.
