just cerakoted this patriot brown

Normally I’m not for anything but black. However, that is a good looking color, and sharp looking build. Did you do it yourself? The cerakote that is.

I did handle both the spikes and aero lowers at my lgs. I really liked the aero in particular. You could tell it was quality, and it had a really nice mag flare incorporated into it. But, when you only have $260 into the entire upper and the lower parts kit I went with the lowest cost option lol.

Normally I am a quality then cost guy within reason, but this purchase was a opened email blast of “dang that special means I can do a whole ar pistol for under $300 thought”. Well close too anyway. It’s Just a phosphate barrel. I don’t plan on really using it all that much so I wasn’t concerned about longevity or accuracy to a point.

I wish my lgs would of had aero’s in stock all they had was the spikes i used. I had to order my aero lower from them and will have to deal with the FFL transfer crap. Hoping it ships soon
My upper will be here Saturday so I will just be waiting for my lower and the LPK to arrive from aero and one of their BCG’s I decided to snag too.

Here is my budget 300blk pistol kit I just finished. All in for $307. I just threw a cheap 3x12 on it since it was laying around. Quality seems ok. Upper to lower has a little wobble but not bad considering. First lower build, and I think it took me 30mins max for assembly. I had no idea how easy it all was to put together.

Wow thats cheap. I think I’m all in on mine for around $975. I went with aero precision upper and lower with the M4e1 atlas one handgaurd. Its more or less a complete Aero gun.

I just built this one. I had a upper laying around and built up a Spikes tactical lower for my old man.

All my parts are in route for my 300blk pistol build. Gonna enjoy this one. Plan is to eventually suppress it.

Noice! My old man finally got tired of my lower and rifle kit sitting around at my house, and he built it up for me. I haven't even seen it yet, and I'm already thinking about a pistol build

They are this year! They are doing 12g brass hulls in 9 pellet buckshot, and 308 for the m1a paratrooper rifle. The 12ga rounds just look awesome.

OH HELL YES. I won't even complain about them being overpriced. I found a case of unopened M19 buck listed for like $2600 or something insane. I just want a few to throw in a display with the shotgun, so they don't have to be collector grade stuff. These will be perfect.

Could you reload the 12ga brass shells?

Yeah you can actually still get brass hulls from reloading suppliers. That was going to be my back up option.

[roguetoaster]

Could you reload the 12ga brass shells?

Most of them, yes, and theoretically you can reload a plastic or paper shell too if it's not too badly damaged.

Those are rad. I wish they would do a run of commemorative WW2 12GA brass. I've been trying to find some original M19 buckshot for my trench gun display, but I haven't been able to find any.

Very impredsed with this commemorative ammo run. Definitely worth the extra 5 bucks over standard ammo.
