My first build ever. It took me about a year to get this far. Still not done with it, just a few more things id like to do (like a scope, sling, paint the name on the stock (APOPHIS), and im still waiting on a few parts to come in.  Cost me an arm and a leg but it is built the way I want it. It fired on the first trigger pull and have not had a problem with it since. I’m very happy, and even a little proud that I did it.

Would like to thank AR15.com for making a dream come true. Thanks for the help!

103,

How do you like the Noveske  "blem".  I have been thinking about one of those for a bit.

Is there any major issues, of just the color is a little off...

Thanks for any info.

The anodizing is nearly perfect.  The roll marks are all centered.  The only issue I could find was a weird bunching (don't know what else to call it) in the buffer plate hole at the back of the receiver.
