Yup, ended up going with an 8" complete upper from
https://bkingsfirearms.com/ , grabbed an ambidextrous charging handle, flip up BUIS, and shiny BCG from the guntry club to complete it since I had some store credit. Ended up just ordering PSA's EPT group for $40 and free shipping after the drop in wasn't becoming available.
I am currently 68 days into my 270 day average wait for form 4 approval for my suppressor. I have so far shot my .308 and .300 BLK out of it. The .308 was tamed quite a bit, so much I could hear the spring in my buffer tube bouncing(that'll get changed out). The .300 BLK was movie quiet sending subsonic ammo down range. Fingers crossed I have it out of jail before the November firearm season. I just need the country to hold it together until 2024.
