I was looking at everyone's builds and parts options for a build, but then a stainless CZ 75B caught my eye. Then, a week later, I couldn't pass up:
Yugo SKS
Russian M91/30 Mosin Nagant w/ matching # bayonet
Yugo M48/M48A Mauser
So my funds are also recouping and my lower is still in the box. I guess this means I have longer to research and it was meant to be as something sweet is probably coming out on the market. That's what I keep telling myself.
That's a great handguard, DoggyDaddy.
I haven't ever seen one like it ..... did you make that yourself ?
Thanks! No, I didn't make it. Its made by Lucid. I ordered it from Brownell's (complete stock set). I'm planning on making this an M16-ish build but wanted the wood furniture. Mine is the "camo" pattern, but it didn't come with the finger grooves that they show in the picture.

Thanks very much for the detailed response.
I'll keep that furniture set in mind for a future build.
Would give you 'rep', but us newbies don't have any to give !
I'm liking the way that upper looks DoggyDad.
Nice! I just built one and used that same KAK blade stabilizer. Haven't shot it yet though. Do you like the brace that far forward? I put mine as far back as I could, but I didn't try it up close like you have yours.a little pistol love

Yea I like it real stubby for a couple of reasons- it's a smaller package to tote, and when I snug up tight with my nose on the charging handle I need it short to avoid touching my shoulder with it ( and presumably instantly go to jail)
Are the lowers from Group Buy #2 ready for pickup at FFLs? I was able to get one this time around and am looking forward to the build.
