| Taking the plunge: EBR
Well folks, Clyde's Armory has confirmed shipment: My sage EBR chassis in Navy Seal grey will arrive tuesday.
I am not looking forward to removing the OP rod guide, hopefully it comes off with a few whacks of the hammer.
My sage shall imbibe a SAI scout squad. I am going to film the whole process and post my experience once its all complete.
Good times,
Dred

Doing some work with a hammer is no big deal!
I love my EBR Chassis. I even have the MOD 1 conversion pieces so I can switch them out from time to time.

Good luck enjoy. I love mine, as matter of fact I will be taking mine to the range tomorrow.
As for documenting your assembly, that is a great idea. Looking at drawings didnt cut it for me. I got ubber frustrated and took it in to a nearby gunsmith to finish her off.
I look forward to seeing your assembly post.
Mike

Good luck with the build. I personally, would like to thank you all, especially Dredsen, for lightening up my wallet by 760.00+ as I just ordered mine as well. I'm to the point where I'm selling off other firearms to pay for this new addiction. I look forward to your video as well.
