Hi all,

I had a long talk with Ron of Smith Enterprise today. As I was talking to him about building my LRB into a Bush Rifle he told me about a few new products he's selling that were being used by the U.S. Navy.

The first is a "Direct connect Vortex Flash Hider" $75.00 . Since I live in "The Peoples Republic of" I'll have to pass on that one until I can effect an escape from here

.

The other is a "M-14 H&K Type Front Sight" for a Bush/Scout rifle. It is attached to the Gas Cylinder Lock and also goes for $75.00. I don't think he has pictures of them on his site yet, so I'm going on Ron's description to have him install one on my LRB M-14 Bush 8) . Building a new rifle is better than Christmas

.

Oh! Almost forgot the most important part of our conversation..... He stated that once the Iraq thing winds down and he has time He's going to build a Limited Run of 100 Forged M-14 Receivers 8O . It will be first come first serve and he's taking Pre-orders by E mail only. He's storing them in a data base. I'm #1 :wink: . He says the price will be around $1,000.00

Hope I got it all correct? Maybe now would be a good time to enter a disclaimer??

Oh Man. I don't know if I can afford another M14. Fulton Armory, LRB, Entreprise Arms,PolyTech,Springfield Armory, ArmsCorp and Smith Enterprise. It's M14 alphabet soup. They say you snooze you loose. I'm gonna have to at least sleep on it. You guy's are a bad influence on me.

. I may have to stop coming here, I'm going broke.

Oh the humanity of it all.

Well, I slept on it. I decided that a Smith Enterprise rifle is a must for my collection, so I jumped on board with a pre-order. I figure that if I didn't do it I would be kicking myself for a long time.

Entreprise Arms M14A2 receivers are machined form a solid billet. Maybe ABNI is going to make the receivers for Smith, to Ron Smith's specs.,like the Fulton Armory receivers, made to Clint's spec's, by ArmsCorp.

azski,
I am really envious of you, being able to take a drive over to Smith Enterprise any old time you want. I think I would be over there bending his ear if he would let me. I'd love to be a fly on the wall at his place.
