I built this over the weekend. First Glock I’ve done. It was a learning experience, but came out great!

If you don't mind telling, how much to did cost you for the parts?
Base gun was $435 with the barrel and SS guide rod upgrades:


That gives you everything you need. Obviously I did some further upgrades and put another $700 in between the sights, RMR, mag well, and trigger.

Does that come with the jig to drill out the lower receiver?

Time to start a new build. It's a .308 hunting rifle this time. Here's a mock-up of what it will probably look like:

View attachment 2941

Here’s a breakdown of the parts I have so far:
  • Aero Precision Lower (Blem)
  • 308, 20” Black Nitride SOCOM Barrel, 1:10 Twist
  • Rifle Length Gas System
  • 15” MLOK Split Rail Hand Guard
  • Side Charging Upper Receiver w/BCG (chrome firing pin)
  • MAG1165-BLK Magpul MOE K2-XL Vertical Grip,
  • Magpul 10 Round mag
  • Adaptive Tactical AR10 Lower Rifle Kit
  • Vortex Diamondback Tactical 4–16x44mm FFP Scope (slightly used)
  • WOLFMTN Dual Ring Offset Cantilever Scope Mount 30mm
  • 5-inch Silencer-like flask suppressor (planning to build legal Federal-stamped silencer)
Total cost anticipated to be approx. $1,100

Have everything listed just like in the rendered image, EXCEPT for the serialized lower receiver. It seems that it took the good folks at Davidson Defense two weeks to get the paperwork straight with my local FFL. But it's supposed to be on the way now. :rolleyes:

Yup. Even comes with the drill bits (although I used my own). The machining is extremely simple on these compared to an AR or 1911. Assembly was a little trickier for a first timer like me. I couldn’t really find any decent YouTube videos that show you what the hell they are actually doing.

Shit 2 weeks for paper work that would be a record in Canada I have been waiting over 5 weeks now for my f.a.c to come back ifi don’t get it in 20 more days I will need to give all my guns up to have someone with a license to hold them till I get mine . The games the government plays with gun owners in Canada is sickening but I will do whatever it takes to keep my guns.

If things go according to plan I will have a retirement home in uncertain Texas or any were on or around caddo lake on the border of Texas and L. A. Nicest place in North America and some of the best duck hunting you can do. worst case I think I can afford something around Detroit. Not to sure about the duck hunting tho 😂

FINALLY!

This morning I looked under my account on the seller's website, and finally, there's a tracking number for the serialized lower receiver for my .308 build. I've been waiting since April 18th. But now it looks like it's finally on the way to my designated FFA gun shop.

Now I just have to wait until it arrives and go visit my local gun shop (actual shop in photo):

Get my umpteenth background check (usually takes less than 1 minute) and pay $30.

THEN, I will have the LAST part for my .308 and can complete my build!

The barrel on that 2nd one looks crazy. Is that just a big heat shield?
Yep just an aluminum shroud around the barrel the videos I watched they said it didn’t get to hot lol it’s a 9mm and the first time I have shot a gun with the back kick that goes down because of the weird bolt action apparently it’s a fun little shooter find out Friday afternoon
