Re: Proof I don't know what I am doing
Just another option, but White Wing Weaponry did some engraving for me as well. I have used Ident several times too, but they were not willing to try on a polymer lower (M&P 15-22) with their laser, where White Wing was able to do so (they were not using a laser, at least at that time).

Re: Proof I don't know what I am doing
Im not quite moved by the lower design, but a fun little gun (sans the weight!), from the looks.
JALLEN -
Cost on a .300blk is not any different than a 5.56, only difference is bbl, and those vary almost as much as 5.56 in price.
I ended up with a 10.5" from DSG. A couple years back they did a Seekins built upper (did not release barrel maker name), with a DSG upper, 10.5" barrel, Seekins adjustable gas block, Seekins MCSR rail, and DSG BCG, and standard CH.
They did this on sale at Black Friday in 2014 and 2015 (and a few times otherwise) at $400, so it was not hard to come in with a complete lower, with ALG trigger, grip of your choice, and a solid parts kit for under $650, + your $200 stamp and engraving costs (50-75 in the DFW area from a few places).
Can setup is all about what you want/need for your build. + $200, of course.
Want a Surefire? plan on 1200-1800.
Want relatively light weight, with a Quick attach flash hider/break, and really quiet? Plan on about $800-1200.
Want direct thread (or maybe a quick attach), dont mind an extra 6 oz, and OK with good, but not great performance? About $500-600.
Want light weight, direct thread, and good performance, but with a requirement for less shooting (no long mag dumps, or multiples), then about $500-600 as well (durability vs weight in this price range).
