Cool Off to LRB went my Winchester M14 parts

Sent my M14 parts to LRB for them to install my GI Winchester barrel, set the head space to my Winchester bolt on with their basic M14 Receiver. When it comes home it will be an M14 Winchester with an LRB receiver. Yes I've found front and rear sights,gas system,op rod,op guide, trigger group, and stock. I'm sure I left something out but I'm just plain excited about getting everything together for this build.
Can't wait to get it home and go to the range.

Good decision. They do a wonderful job. I just got off the phone with them 5 minutes ago. Ordered another M25 barreled action with their bolt. This time I am going for a lighter rig than others I have. Using a standard weight Criterion 18.5 inch barrel. They end up being only an inch longer than the 16 inch when topped off with a vortex. I have a ball adding the A kits from CMP.

I want a scope gun and with the ranges here being only 200 yds no need to have anything more than the 18.5. I ordered the M25 with the same Barrel as the Tanker M14 I already have.



This my M14 Carbine light weight and fast. I been working with it as a CQB Weapon. These 18.5 Barrels are the deal man so much fun.

EO 2nd here,
Well it has finally arrived. I'm not in the least disappointed. Smooth action, just wish I could get to the range. Will give update after first range tour.
Will post a few photos when I get the photographer of this outfit to take a few.

I got my pristine CMP Grade A M14 Parts Kit (All Winchester, I would like to add!!) waiting on it's LRB M14SA receiver... Add to that my '61 Winchester barrel and Winchester Bolt...

Spoke with Jason yesterday, so it's going to be a few weeks...

Thanks bigblock,
Looks great. Will post photos soon.
When you collect Winchesters it only made sense to me to build a Winchester M-14 and I was lucky enough to gather up all the parts.(took a while)
