First I would like to say Hi
This site has been a fountain of information, so a big thank you to all the contributors. My AR journey began when I decided I needed to add an AR to my small collection of guns. Thus began my research, which spawned the desire to build my own in an effort learn and fully understand this awesome versatile piece of weaponry. My research led me to arfcom.
I have already decided, in fact purchased all of my parts for my build.
Build Specs:
- Aero Precision blem upper, forward assist and charge handle
- Sionics medium 1:8 16" mid-length chrome lined
- AIM Surplus NiB BCG
- Magpul MOE handguard
- A2 flash hider
- Franklin Armory Lower (Local company sources lower and has it branded as theirs. Wanted to stimulate my local economy)
- Anderson LPK CA edition with bullet button
- Aero Precision mil-spec carbine buffer tube
- Magpul MOE M4 carbine collapsible
[*]BUIS, A2 F FSB, and Troy fixed rear
Parts have been arriving all week and the last thing I need to do is get my lower our of jail (CA 10 day waiting period).
No plans for optics any time soon. I will likely use $$$$ to build another AR before I purchase optics. Most shooting will be at range or out in the hills at cans, targets, and squirrels. I want to do another in 14.5" with full floating rail, low profile gas block and flip up BUIS.
Thanks in advance for any comments or input you provide. I have been eating, sleeping, breathing AR-15 for weeks and know I still have lots to learn. I will be sure to post up pictures in AR pictures thread once my build is complete.
