Also bought an EOTech 512.A65 which will be replacing the detachable handle.
On order is a custom engraved dust cover, and Hogue pistol grip.
I am looking for a good flip up rear sight if you got one for sale let me know!

Nice. My buddy has a .50 Beowulf. Pretty fun rifle to shoot. My advice though is buy reloading equipment. The last time he ordered ammo from Alexander Arms, it took 3 months to arrive, and that was before the elections. With the current run on ammo because of Obama, you'll be lucky to get any ammo before the 2012 election. ![[Eek!]](eek.gif)

Hopefully it won't take long to get it! Since the election it's been a madhouse at gun stores.

Yeah it has. I see you are in Sac, what range do you shoot at. Maybe we can get together sometime and head to Sac Valley

Unfortunately I've been shooting at Spenceville
I am trying to find another location close to Sac where nobody or at least responsible and safety minded shooters go.
Colfax BLM land was great place to shoot but yet again idiots screwed it up for the rest of us. I'll set up something up in the near future for a shooting trip. It will most likely be on a Sunday.

Nope I got a special deal
The Beowulf uppers were back ordered for 6 months prior to the post election buying frenzy.

AR15s aren't assault rifles, Its a Semi-Auto rifle. The name Assault rifle came from anti-gun owners to spark fear in non-gun owners to pass stricter gun laws.
