Here are a few more shots. I managed to rent a car and go home this weekend. While there, I went ahead and swapped out the ACS stock with the new UBR stock on the 6.8 rifle. Also, I removed the xtm panels.
If there is one bit of advice I could give the aspiring assembler it would be this; Take your time and get what you really want from the very beginning. Don't settle for anything else. On the 6.8 build I settled for the ACS stock and the Troy fixed sights. Let me first say that there is not a thing in the world wrong with these parts. They work and the price is right. I bought them, though, because I was in a rush to complete the rifle at a time when my cash flow was running low. Now I have ncurred extra expense replacing the ACS with the UBR I really wanted. I will incur further extra expense replacing the Troy fix sights with folding sights later. So what I am saying is, build your rifle to your liking and do not settle for something else just because you have to at the moment. There is no right or wrong on most parts choices, and there is such a variety of parts that you ought to be able to build exactly what is right for YOU and your needs. That is all that matters. My rifles are heavy. I like that. Yours will be what you like.
