Back in July I met a guy in hickory for a gun deal said he had a Wilson combat recon tactical BNIB for sale. Got there knew the stock had been changed but everything has the Wilson combat stamp on it. Got it for a decent deal or what I thought. Fast forward to sunday while I was talking to a couple guys on here an was talking about trading it @Mr. Bggs points out the safety wasn't factory either. So I messaged Wilson combat to run the serial number said it takes a day or 2 to get back to me. So I start looking even closer an noticed some other parts not matching up. Thanks to a guy Mr bggs told me to ask about the rifle an @cubrock he pointed out the same things. Move forward to today Wilson combat tells me the lower was sold stripped back in 2018 (This is where I started to feel a little sick to my stomach). So as soon as I get home today I start field stripping the rifle an tearing it down. Find out the upper was a complete recon tactical 100 percent. So I move on to the lower an find a new trigger had been put in not sure of the type of bolt catch (maybe y'all can help) an a Magpul ambidextrous safety and a LWRC stock. Even though I was lied to, I still think I came out all right. Has anyone else ever experienced something like this? Here's the details that I know of so far about the build.
LWRC International's UCIW stock kit
Magpul ambidextrous safety
Larue tactical MBT 2 stage trigger
Spikes grip
Bolt catch ????
Mag release ????
Moral of the story I appreciate the help on here I got on here and not everything is always as bad as it seems an think I like the rifle more now then I did before. Taking it shooting tomorrow will give updates
