Pulled the trigger on the upper, now building a lower.

So I was introduced to this .458 world since I had an issue with my 46cal suppressor only fitting 1 gun. That just didn’t seem right, and 45-70 doesn’t come on a AR frame under $5k. SO, this is the start of my build. I put my Ruger lower on it just to give it an idea. Here’s a parts list for the upper.

Faxon Duty Series 10.5", Gunner Big Bore, .458 Socom, Pistol Gas, 4150, Nitride AR-15 Barrel
Faxon Firearms AR-10.750 3 Screw Low Profile Gas Block
Spike's Tactical AR-15 Melonited Black Mil Spec Gas Tubes 
Nickel Boron KM 450 Bushmaster/458 Socom AR-15 Bolt Carrier Group BCG
Breek Arms Warhammer Mod2 AR-15 Ambidextrous Charging Handle
YANKEE HILL MACHINE CO. AR-15 MR7 9.29" Mid-Length Handguard M-LOK Black
SLR Rifle Works : M-LOK Handstop Mod 4
HOLOSUN 510C & HM3X Combo
JK Armament RPX 155 46cal suppressor

I’ve got the following parts coming in the mail this week.

Wilson Combat stripped lower
Armaspec AR15 GEN4 BB Stealth Recoil Spring Buffer Kit
Strike Industries Enhanced AR-15 Lower Parts Kit
RISE Armament Rave 140 AR Drop-In Trigger
Adaptive Tactical AR-15 EX Performance Adjustable Stock
And some Black Butterfly rounds because hot damn I didn’t check the price on rounds

With this and my 45-70, I will be getting into reloading soon.
