Years ago I bought an AR in an 11.5 pistol. I put about 2 mags through her , and shes been in the safe ever since. Over the years I have ended up with a few extra pieces, But Today The UPS man brought me a 18"WOA SPR barrel. I had completely forgot about it since it had been order 5 months ago for another build, and said build was sold due to lack of components. Now the problem, do I use the pistol for a new build or sell, and start fresh?

don't have a stock yet, thinking of a plain A2 or adjustable one. will have to order one . I might be able to trade the short barrel and pistol buffer for some parts. Im gonna need , stock / buffer set up, Free float tube of some sort, Optics / mount, Trigger group, Bolt
SBR your pistol and start a new build for your WOA upper. If money is an issue then just use the lower once you SBR it.
If you decide to get rid of the pistol barrel and buffer, let me know. I have a buddy here just below you that is wanting one.
Hopefully will have some range time this tuesday. We will see how she groups, with 55grn Walmart cheap ammo , and 69grn Federal GMM. Also Changed out a few parts. went with a MI Low profile gas block and brownells gas tube , ditched the magwell grip, and borrowed some glass from friend. no bipod stud yet so it will be shot from a bull bag.

OK, burnt some powder today at the farm. The 69 federal looks really promising . the walmart stuff, that will be a big NO. Going to the range tomorrow .Thinking of doing 5 3 shot groups overall . should also show POI shift as barrel heats up.
for sure, let us know how that WOA barrel shoots---I have a 13.7 that is awesome---want their 20" DMR barrel for my next personal build
