So I just did a little digging and the WOA 224 barrels are heavy as hell that sucks I was really happy with what I was reading Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You should do it! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

They do look like great barrels, the one thing I liked about criterion is you can purchase the barrel with a head spaced bolt. But I just looked at white oak and am now Seriously considering it Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have not but I will for sure check out their websight Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’ll post the total spent if no one tells my wife lol. I’m guessing I’ll be around $1500 before scope more if you include the tool set I got Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Having a tough time with the barrel this is the one I think I’m going to go with, I really just can’t decide between the 18 or the 22 inch what are your guys thoughts https://criterionbarrels.com/products/ar-15/hybrid-contour-224-valkyrie-ar-15-barrels/ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No I won’t because who do you think I’m going to call when I have questions Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It was a blast we called in a few but couldn’t seal the deal. Next year you gotta get in on it with us Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So after the Sullivan county coyote contest and hunting with the jerkman for the weekend I decided it was time for me to build my first AR, it is going to be a dual purpose gun built for Predator hunting and long range shooting. I’m pretty sure I decided on 224 valkyrie. Any way I decided to set up my spare bedroom as a office/gun building room. Got a new table and ordered a gunsmithing kit, here are pics of the new set up. I will keep this thread updated as this build moves along. I may also ask for some of your opinions on parts as I move forward Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hahah I mean you can but it may be the last time You truly stare at anything at least with that one eye Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
