    I just couldn't help it. When I saw THE JACK lower by Sharp Bro. I wanted one for a build.

    I did some looking around and had a buddy at a local shop order me one for me.
    The lower showed up Friday and looks great.

    I just got in a M16 M4 Davidson Defence Complete Melonite Nitride bolt carrier group BCG coming in from Delta Team Tactical for $90. They have them on sale right now. Regular price is $221.

    Now for the handguard. ????
    I really like the look of the Diamondhead V-RS™ "T" 13.5". I have found them listed from $165 to $189.

    The barrel I am looking at is a 16" M-4 Profile Stainless Steel 1:8 Polygonal Rifled Barrel 5.56 Chamber by Black Hole Weaponry. That will cost me $265 but it is shipped with a free stripped flat top upper from Surplus Ammo. Plus free shipping.

    For the butt stock I'm thinking of going with the ACE Skeleton Stock 9.9" stock, or the ERGO F93 PRO Stock.


    Since I am putting in a good bit of money on this build I thought I should make it a little more special.
    I'm working out the detales on shipping it off to have the skull part of the lower Cerakoted in bone white.
    How cool would that be??

    Almost bought one at the gun show last weekend but got a .308 size lower instead. Still may do one soon. Looking forward to seeing what you do with yours.

    I saved some money on this build.
    Last week a friend told me that he might have a new black Ergo buttstock and grip sitting in his extra parts.
    I asked what he wanted for them and he said $60. That saved me about $100.

    The barrel and upper arrived the other day.

    Looks like all you need is a lower and upper parts kit and some sights and you are good to go!

    I have 3 or 4 mil spec LPKs, nothing fancy. I have been thinking about upgreading the fire control group.
    I have all the other small parts to finish the upper and lower. Haven't made up my mind on the flash hider yet. I have a few on hand already.

    I'm currently doing a build also and would like to know if any of you guys know where I can get my parts dipped in Kuiu Verde camo pattern. I've got the Spikes Tactical skull lower and am thinking about getting the skull painted white after I get it dipped.

    Let me know how the paint job comes out. I've got a Jack lower that I want to have the skull painted on and the entire gun done in a custom camo job. Thanks
