in not noting the most excellent gift given to me by my wife this past R&R/delayed Christmas. I'd noted this furniture earlier when I'd inadvertently run across while browsing the web. I'm happy to say the gentleman who makes these was able to get a set to her shortly before my arrival home.
I will note that the image doesn't do the wood justice by any means. Made of walnut, all the pieces have a warm, rich appearance that I wouldn't have associated with an AR-type rifle. My only fear now is that I'll scratch them while out at the range. I'll probably be hauling an extra-thick blanket to cover the shooting surface every time this one goes out anymore.
I'm damn fortunate in my spouse's consideration when it comes to gifts.

How does it affect the weight of the rifle? Increase it much?
It definitely has a little more heft to it, mostly in the butstock. I didn't notice it much in the handguards. If I were going to haul it around by foot a lot, I'd probably go to plastic again.
Beautiful.
BobG,
I agree, although it's not usually a word associated with ARs. She made a fine choice.
I've always liked nice wood on firearms, when practical, especially with blued steel. With stainless it doesn't matter as much.
I'm sort of old-fashioned, I guess.
BobG,
Nothing wrong with that!
That is so cool!!!
