Didn't see anything posted on this yet so. . .
Advanced Armament Corp., makers of fine silencers and the 300 BLK round, have decided to try and make their own complete AR-15 rifles. It’s a big step for a company that until now has only made silencers and small fiddly bits for guns, but one that they’re doing with some gusto. Kevin (AAC founder) has already made plans to extend their factory into an adjacent building and fill them with AR-15 assembly stations. Make the jump for one of their prototype stations in their current factory.

I was at the factory tuesday for an unrelated photoshoot. I was wondering what that little workstation was for!

If I were a gambling man I'd put money on the tooling and other supplies having been shipped down from Maine.

I still have dibs on a stripped lower with the new Blackout logo... Hopefully the caliber will be marked MULTI.

We aren't selling lowers - just rifles, including factory SBRs. And they are all marked 300 AAC BLACKOUT.
Re: Article on AAC making receivers and complete AR-15s
AHHHH, Factory SBR's....love it.
What will the twist be?

Re: Article on AAC making receivers and complete AR-15s
So, I am going to assume then that the model uppers you make; 9", 12.5" and 16" will also be available as complete rifles. Plans for other models in the future?silencertalk wrote:We aren't selling lowers - just rifles, including factory SBRs. And they are all marked 300 AAC BLACKOUT.

Is that one of the new 300 AAC BLACKOUT rifles on the blog announcement about The Farm?
I see the AAC logo on the bolt carrier.
