First AR build. I've wanted one for a long time. And I'll be honest, the election results pushed me to getting one sooner. Now I am hooked and have ordered another 10 stripped lowers in a previous group buy. I ordered a M1sales kit since I was not sure what all I needed. I had an idea of what I wanted and am happy with it so far. Not very hard to assemble, though I did have a spring and detent that went flying and I luckily found. I've already got plans for a carbine next.

http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y101/Toxarch/Guns/P3020006-2.jpg

24" SS 1:8 fluted bull barrel and Magpul PRS stock. Let me tell you, those 2 items together make this a pretty heavy gun. I have my old 3-9x40 rifle scope that I will use on it for now. Still need to find some rings for the scope first. Have 3 PMAG clips and a little ammo for a good start. Buddy of mine said I can buy all the supplies needed for reloading and do all my reloading at his place using his reloader.

new addition of the YHM lightweight free float
daisy chain sling
and a new upper after I destroyed the original from taking the barrel off
if I had to guess it probably took about 300 ft lb to get it off.
ended up cutting the delta ring off and using a pipe wrench and heating it with gun oil down the threads in-front of a space heater for a while.

much happier that ordeal is over and much happier with the end product.

This is my first...but like so many others, not my last.  A very addictive and expensive hobby!  M4  is next...

RRA Lower Parts Kit; Single Stage Trigger
CAA CBS 6 position collapsible stock w/ adjustable cheek rest
YHM Free Floating Rail

I'm waiting on a Tac Latch to add to the charging handle so the scope can be mounted lower and also a panther grip.

So, what do you guys think about my 1st?

No idea why the pics are different sizes?

Just out of curiosity, have you put a loaded mag in this rifle and placed it on a scale?  I'm guessing this rifle tops 11 lbs.

I have not weighed it, no, but it actually is surprisingly light for the amount of crap that is hanging off it in that picture.  I shot it with full "accessories" the other day, and while I'm sure it would suck to carry long distances, with a sling for about an hour it was a breeze.

That being said, both the bipod and flashlight are larue, so they come off in 10 seconds and I have a much lighter gun, which is how I normally shoot it.  

ETA - I weighed it, guess what? with full furniture and loaded 30 round mag, it weighs in at 13.2 lbs

When I take off the light/bipod/sling, it drops down to 10.9 lbs.

It feels pretty light to shoot though, somehow.

I was close, I have almost the exact same build is why I said that  Only difference is mine isn't piston driven and I have a CTR instead of the UBR (which I envy you because of).  I ended up putting the scope on a different rifle and got an aimpoint m2 and aimpoint 3x.  I can pop off the flashlight and magnifier and it's much handier.  I've since moved the harris bipod to an intermediate rifle too.  I think I've got my tacti-cool cqb rifle down under 10 lbs with all it's accessories and just over 8 pounds with the extras put in my pockets.

First post so go easy on me...

LAR Grizzly lower, assembled by me.  First stripped lower that I put together myself.
DPMS lower parts kit
Hogue grip
No name 4 pos stock
Started with a "normal" 1/9 RRA 16" chrome lined upper, but hated the front site base.  I switched it out with a YHM flip up and free floated it while I had the gas block off.
YHM rear sight
RRA bolt carrier group
Big latch charging handle, don't know the brand, got it from PK.
Things I want to add/change:  Purchase an EOTech, Install Magpul CTR stock<parts ordered.




This one started life as a RRA 9mm.  I know this one seems a little "mall ninja" with the fake can and cheapy optic.  The can is only there until my SBR paperwork comes back, and I' bought the bushnell way before my first AR, so it'd be silly not to use it.  It actually works pretty well and has been pretty durable and reliable so far.
Changed the hammer/buffer/spring out for 5.56 stuff
Hogue grip
Bushmaster flat top upper with M4 ramps
Noveske Crusador 12.5" SS barrel 1/7
YHM light weight free float handguard
Spikes fake can, permanently attached
Magpul CTR stock
Bushnell trophy red/green dot optic
Things I want to add/change:  Remove the fake can when my NFA stuff goes through, probably put a vortex flash hider on instead.  Buy some HK style iron sights.




I didn't build this one, but by the time I get done changing it around it'll look totally different.
DPMS 16" SS bull barrell flat top
Changed out the A2 stock for a DPMS 4 pos collapsing one
Leupold "gold ring" scope
Craptastic scope rings
Things I want to add/change: LaRue scope mount, the gun and scope have drained my bank account for the time being.  Just have to ebay some more junk from the basement.  I'm thinking about having the barrel recontoured to SPR dimensions, adding DD Omega forearm and a magpul UBR stock.
