Carbine:
Milspec or commercial tube? How many positions? Weight of buffer?

Pistol:
Weight of buffer? Locking plate and castle nut still needed since there is no stock to index?

Photos?

Mil spec per the ad :045: Six position. BeerHounds is actually running one on his gun right now.

Carbine weight buffer in each.

If there are any volunteers to mule stuff up to the northerners I would be interested. Any Yankees ever get down that way?

There are mules often headed to Renton area. That plus if there is enough north end interest, a crap load of these will fit in a flat rate box for only $12-17 t be shipped to a northern mule (yes, I can get them from Steve and ship them at my work).

I'll bite.

I'll take 1 pistol tube, 1 carbine tube, and a trs clone. Is the riser needed to co-witness iron sights?

Risers are 1/2" and 1" and in theory the 1" riser I believe cowitnesses. I use red dots as a standalone, so never check, and with the ten zillion iron sights on the market, and no three people seemingly able to agree on what does and doesn't work for their particular gun setup, I make no effort to test what does or doesn't cowitness, except to note the 1/2" and 1" risers are popular.

Besides a $3 difference, what does your buy offer over something like this?

For some people, waiting for a couple weeks for the Group Buy to pan out, then wait for delivery to you and logistics getting it to them, the $3 difference seems to be a very small inconvenience.

Honestly not much.

I thought there might be more interest than there is TBH
