Total piece of junk, I wouldn't shoot that as it might blow up. Please send it to me so I can dispose of it properly.

I know a lot of AR guys like solid black but those NiB sets are just plain sexy. If I had the money while the group buy was on I would have gotten a set myself. Damn fine stick you got there.

Thanks guys, appreciate all the comments! Weight, prob about 10ish I would have to guesstimate... Barrel is heavy, and prs.. But the rail system is very light, so it balanced out very well, doesn't feel nearly as heavy as it
Is..

You now have my attention.
Can you adjust the PRI with the rail on?

BTW ~ nice rig.
 
Re: Mega NiB Ma-Ten 308 Build w/pics :)

I would be suprised if it was down to 10 lbs. Mine weighs in at 17 although my scope is a little heavier and I have a 24" barrel but still. Definitely let us know once you get it on a scale.

Again, thanks guy for all the comments, to answer some, no range report yet, hopefully today.. (fam in town gotta break away).. OldGuard-- got about 2100$ give or take in it minus scope setup.. B3Dlam, nice build yourself man, and after finally getting off my ass, with atlas on front, monopod on back, empty mag in, scope on, she weighs in at 14.6 lbs..
 
Re: Mega NiB Ma-Ten 308 Build w/pics :)

How do you like the NiB reciever? I've been thinking of getting another upper of theres, the mono with only the single top rail. But don't know whether to get the regular or NiB.
 
Re: Mega NiB Ma-Ten 308 Build w/pics :)

Hey guys, got to the range today! It was a very pleasant experience to say the least.. Only able to put 30 rds down range, but first shot the vortex was only 1" out of center zero, dialed in 2 shots later, smallest 4 rd group after that and some screwing around was .6" and another at .75" at 100 yds.. Very happy with it so far, great weight balance and recoil was minimal to say the least! To answer above... Dpms bcg--- and Love the NiB coating.. Didn't have the chance to even clean it yet, but let's be honest, it looks sexy as hell
