Hello,
I am toying with the idea of a winter project to build myself an AR15. I do not have an EBR and now is the time!
The fun part of this project will be that it will cost me zero out-of-pocket. I am funding the project 100% from custom knife sales. I will first cost everything out, then make a run of knives that will cover those costs. Who knows, maybe i'll do a run of NES knives with the NES logo etched into the blades.....you NES guys are suckers for logo'd gear!
Anyways....
I am planning to do something different than a standard .223 and have settled in on the .50 Beowulf. Seems like a lot of fun! KaBoom!
Does anyone have any experience building an AR for this round? It seems to me like its simply a matter of getting a complete upper and mags for the cartridge and putting it on any normal AR15 lower receiver. Are there any other considerations I need to make?
