    Default my wait begins

    well i went and ordered a barrel. an 18" Recon,should be just the trick for my BRD.
    after reading about people having to wait a bit on Ben,i decided to add a little more burden on him. my barrel won't be coated until i receive it.gonna send it to get Cerakoted by a local company that coated my upper and lower.should cut my lead time down a bit.

    grats on your fix, i too just ordered a barrel, hard to say when I'll get it but it will give me time to get my other parts together, I'm guessing a part a week will keep the disease at bay :-)

    According to UPS tracking my 18' recon upper will be here Tuesday. It's been a long wait. My lower was getting lonely.

    the last barrel i ordered from Ben took about 2 weeks to get so i think i will get it about my birthday or close to it.St Patricks Day should be a good one this year!

    I ordered a recon 18 full upper on Feb 9. I heard from Ben last week, it sounds like the 18in barrels just got to Ben(at least that was what he'd been told), so there's a chance you won't even have to wait that long.
