Bought a Howa Axiom 1500 back in April or May and it's just been sitting in the safe since. Bought a scope(redfield revenge 6x18) last weekend but my LGS was kind of busy so i didn't want to bother waiting for rings, mounting and bore sighting so i went first thing this morning. He didn't have much for rings in stock so it's just got some cheapies on it right now and I'll probably swap them out later now that i know which height i need. Took it out back and quickly zeroed it at 50yds just because there was a target set up there and then smacked some steel at 200yds.
Went back inside to BS for awhile and he tells me the lower i ordered came in so i did the paperwork for that. Just happen to mention i love how AR's look with wood and he disappears in the back for a minute and comes back with a set. So i grabbed that too along with a buffer tube the get the project going a little. Can't use the pistol grip though(thanks Cuomo!) so i got a spur for this build.
Now i just need to see if i can find the right barrel for the wood that's not threaded. Just going to do irons on this one with a carry handle.
