Want an LR-308 that looks as great as it performs? Got a need to develop that "extension of yourself" level of familiarity that only building it yourself could attain? Get your zen on with this side-charging LR-308 build kit, with a black nitride barrel that's been given straight fluting to show that attention-grabbing stainless steel underneath.
This side-charging LR-308 build kit includes a pre-built side-charging upper assembly that features a 20-inch black nitride straight-fluted SOCOM Barrel paired with a 15-inch free-M-Lok floating handguard. Also included is the rear end of your rifle, the 6-position buffer tube assembly and butt stock. And of course, you get a standard lower parts kit to serve as the guts. And after you complete your LR-308 (DPMS gen 1 patterned) 80% lower, you just build it, and mount the backup sights or optic of your choice. Then you just grab some mags and ammo, and become one with your inner shooter.
What’s Included
This kit is not a firearm. It includes an assembled upper receiver, bolt carrier group, lower parts kit, and buffer assembly with buttstock. It does not include the component to make a firearm: A stripped lower receiver. Pair this rifle kit with an AR-10/LR-308 80% lower receiver and AR-10/LR-308 jig to fabricate a receiver, sold separately.
