Build Thread, Six Sigma No-Budget Build
#9
I have almost everything here already. Of course I screwed up an order and grabbed a KeyMod rail instead of MLOK. I ordered a new one and need to send the KeyMod rail back now (unless someone wants a killer deal on a 15" Seekins SP3R V3).

Here were all the parts that I had on hand as of last night. I don't have a DDC charging handle at the moment so I'll run a black one until the DDC one shows up. As I previously noted, that's the wrong SP3R so it'll be staying in the box. We might have to swap out that DDC scope mount for a black one too. It's totally functional but it's clashing with RAL8000 a little. Both RAL8000 and DDC are pretty unique shades, I'll blame it on the DDC since it clashes with the Vortex Razors too. Sad

All that really remains before I can fully assemble the upper is to get the barrel blasted and cerakoted. That will buy me a little time to get the correct rail and charging handle though so it's all good. Usually I can get a barrel refinished in about a week but we have some extended Mayo Clinic trips coming up that might impact that a little.

I tossed in Blake's 1911 just for good measure. I love these little Brownings. They fit his hand really well and they're nearly as tunable as a "standard" 1911. This one was pretty good out of the box but we hand fitted the safeties and reworked the trigger a little bit anyway. The safeties, especially the grip safety, were really touchy to begin with.

Here is Blake getting a few shots in prior to leaving for surgery last fall.

APA Fat Bastard g3 showed up this morning. I've sold a few of these and customers have been really happy with them thus far. The g2's get great reviews as well. This will be my first g3 however and it will be the first one that I'll be tuning myself. I'm really looking forward to seeing how it works, especially when compared to the g2. I'm specifically interested in if the Grendel moves enough gas to make the g3 worth it over a g2.

Sorry about the orientation of the pictures. For whatever reason, rotating them on my phone & computer is not making a difference on the forum. I'm sure that it's due to the software that I'm using in combination w/iPhone pics. I'll pull out the one of the SLRs for my "completed build" photos.
