    When you say matched lower/upper, do you mean matched as in both the same size while within machining/milspec tolerances to ensure good fit?
    That's my only upset with my old NEA Digit, the movement between upper and lower, even though it doesn't seem to affect her performance.
    Also what sort of cash are we talking for an 18" upper?
    Thanks

    The latest Gen guns are very tight with close to zero movement between upper and lower. Less movement than any other AR I have handled.
    Pricing on an 18" upper is $1599.

    ok. So if we just order through the site will we automatically get the new version or do we have to specify? are the older versions in stock going to drop in price?

    We only have 2x 14.5 older generation guns left. We wil offer these at a discount. The 12.5s are all still the older generation.
    All other 14.5 and 18 guns are latest generation.

    If I had a spare left arm I'd swap it for one of these.
    If you don't get Dirt, Blood or Grease under your nails it ain't a hobby

    If I had a spare couple of grand I'd buy one tomorrow...bloody house renovations
    I'm drawn to the mountains and the bush, it's where life is clear, where the world makes the most sense.

    Hmmm if my missus was not capable of causing serious bodily harm .........
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
