I was looking back through some pictures on my computer and found this one from a few months ago when I got all the parts in to start a new rifle build. It felt like Christmas morning as a kid looking at all these parts getting ready to put them together. I've probably built a dozen or so in the past but this was the first one in a couple of years. Does anybody else get that excited when you're finally ready to start putting parts together?
I don't have a picture on my computer of the completed rifle but I'll try to take one and add it to this thread. The one thing I learned from assembling this gun, is that while CMC triggers are awesome, their lower parts kits are horrible. I ended up having to use left over parts from other builds to use on this gun. The safety would hang up and you would need two fingers to disengage it, the mag release would stick and you would have to wiggle it to get it to release, and the takedown pins were tighter than any I have ever seen. I thought I was saving some money buying the trigger with the lower parts kit but CMC must buy those parts from the lowest bidder to throw them in the package.
