Looks great. I first qualified with a USAF M-16 at Amarillo AFB in 1968, so in the back of my mind I'd still like to build one of these, just for S&Gs.

Not sure I'm up to worrying about parts that are completely concealed, but more power to ya!

FWIW; AFAIK; IMHO; YMMV; yadda, yadda, yadda.

Bobby Bowden is doing a fine job - just leave him alone.

Where was the range at Amarillo AFB?.. I was there '55- '56 and never even heard of one. Was it indoors some where?...

Looks great. I am still waiting on my Nodak lower. How long did it take you to get yours? Sent the MO and FFL back in late January
