Thread: Advice On First NFA Purchase

  1. #1

    Advice On First NFA Purchase

    Here's the deal, I want an SBR AR. Ideally I would want a Colt 6933, but I don't anticipate finding one of those at a normal price for a good while. I'm still pissed I didn't buy the one I saw on Bud's for $1,100 6 months ago. Does anyone have any recommendations. Should I just SBR a lower and slap on an upper or is there a factory SBR with a good rep thats worth looking at. Ideally if I'm going to spend $200 extra and wait 6+ months I want a kick ass rifle and not some frankenwhatever I assembled myself.

    I would have no worries stamping a good lower now and then snagging a BCM, DD, or Noveske upper as they become available.
    Think for yourself. Question authority.

    Probably the best route right now, but if things lighten up a bit, I'd recommend a Noveske. I've got two and they both run very well.
    Time flies when you throw your watch.

    Personally, If I ever go SBR, I'm going full retard with an 8" Barrett Rec7 in 6.8.
    YMMV.

    Are you wanting 5.56 or another caliber? Also, budget?

    2k before or after the government steals your $200?

    WDW,
    You'll probably want a suppressor with your SBR, no?
