That and there's several boxes of .223 at my aunt's house I may be able to con my cousin out of. She gave me 4 boxes of .380 last year when i griped I couldn't find any in the stores.

Nice! I have been looking at some of the new shorty uppers to go with a lower I bought a couple years ago. One has a barrel that look like a SAW with the new rail system. It look total bad @$$.
The down side, being this is The Peoples Democratic Repulik of Kalifornia, no adjustable stocks, no flash suppressors, threated barrels to accep a suppressor, only pinned compensators
So, my intention of the lower will be a compesition stock with intergral cheek rest, with the adjustment for length and height. Match trigger assembly, 24 inch fluted stainless barrel, Hogue free floating tube foregrip, flattop upper, I am thinking low ride fixed sights extra thing front blade, and rear super match sights.
Anyhow, that is my project rifle.
Still need to figure if I want to drop the 1500 to 2000 for the Springfield, downside, at the gunshop they are WAAAY overpriced, and they have no idea when they will be able to order from Springfield, they just aren't taking orders ;(
I am also toying with the idea of a good bolt gun, I'd love a Styer SSG 69 but they don't come in Left Hand.
Maybe a tricked out Remiington 700, or maybe something by Robar in .308......OH WAIT!!!! The AR's in .308 are available now too! And alot are going for slightly more than a traditional brand name AR!
HQ, you've got a couple of us going now. See what you've started!
