I've been going through the parts bins and getting a few things sorted out that have been sitting as components for some time. I've got a couple three builds laid out that have all the components more or less ready to go. I'm shortest on sighting systems, probably next shortest on handguards or barrels. Then it is probably small upgrade parts like QD end plates, extended charging handles and ambi safeties.

For a while now I've had a 12.7x42 with a 18" Satern barrel. This gun is built on a mil-spec Stag lower using a Satern big bore upper, a Midwest Industries handguard, a SLR Rifleworks adjustable gas block, a Rifle stock and recoil system, a Guntech tanker brake (gen1), and mounting a 1-6 scope using a Aero Precison mount plus Magpul offset back up sights. For CA compliance I've got a grip wrap or a finned grip on the thing.

A year ago or so I picked up a Bear Creek upper in the same caliber with a 16" carbine gas system barrel pre assembled. I replaced the muzzle device with a Guntech tanker brake gen2.

I finally got around to assembling a lower for this upper. Matrix mil-spec lower, mil-spec lower parts kit, mil-spec carbine recoil system and buffer extension tube, Magpul MOE fixed carbine stock. Put a BCM single point sling end plate on the receiver. Used a Strike Industries simple grip for CA compliance in the build. I will need to replace the mil-spec safety with an ambi safety. Even if I wasn't in CA I've come to really like having an ambi safety on my ARs but here in CA with the stupid finned grips to keep the gun 'featureless' an ambi safety is a requirement. No sights or scope at present but I'll be fixing that eventually.

Getting ready for a second .308 Aeroprecision M5 build. This one should be a 18" fluted barrel.

12.7x42 (50 Beowulf) builds. Need to get some sights or an optic on the second one.

Added 6-24x50 scopes w/ Warne Rings to the Mega MATEN builds.
Added a 5-20x44 w/Aero Precision extended mount to the Aero Precision M5 build with the 18" barrel.
Added a 5-20x44 using the Warne Rings to the 24" fluted Grendel build. This combination doesn't quite fit as far forward as I'd like on the small frame receiver but it is functional.

These are the Bushnell scopes from a year ago or more.
I'm down to 1 30mm scope from Bushnell and 1 1" scope from Nikon that aren't mounted at present.
I've got a set of 1" Warne QD rings for the AR style guns, a couple sets of Warne medium QD 30mm rings and a set of 1" 'high' Leupold rings.
