    Black Friday Howa Mini HB/MDT LSS starting to come together

    Parts are arriving.... Chassis & mount yesterday, butt stock today, hogue grip (A2 is a place holder), scope & rings tomorrow. Barreled action is at the FFL - pick it up tomorrow.
    I was going to wait for a Howa, but the MDT factory seconds offered for $225 delivered, Brownells & SWFA discounts started this ball rolling...I need to shoot more & spend less

    Yes, you saved at least $200 on the action and chassis alone! Nice job.
    You will not be disappointed. It shoots great.

        Cool project. Really like those MDTs. Where to get one for good price?

          MDTTAC had a black Friday sale last week and offered factory blems for $225. Mine has a couple hard to see nicks along the top edge & a little discoloration around the sling swivel that will be hidden by a pic rail & bipod.

            Heck of a deal you got on the chassis.

              I have had the mini action in my cart at Brownells twice now.... first time I just procrastinated until it went off sale, this last time I went and looked at the deals thread on here and suddenly found myself buying parts for a pistol build and a 16'' Grendel build. Maybe 3rd time will be a charm.

                  JW,
                  I did the same with the mini action at Brownell's
                  The deal on the chassis and all the other parts to finish it got me off the dime.

                    I agree, if I had seen the chassis for what you paid it would be on the way. Looking forward to a range report.
