I got a cheap PSA for a truck gun not too long ago. I like it, but it's just not me. So, new project. I got a stripped BCM upper & a complete PSA pistol lower. I swapped the A2ish grip for an Apeg (my preference) and have a 12.5 centurion, BCM mcmr, mbt and vltor charging handle inbound. I'm well on my way. Already have an aimpoint pro looking for a place to live. Should be a nice little gun when I'm done and arguably the perfect truck gun for my needs. Obviously not done yet, but I'm confident in where this is going

All I've got for now. Most of it's in the mail.
I'll update when they show up

I'm giving it to a friend. She doesn't have an AR and I have a hard time sleeping at night knowing she doesn't

What do you think of the H&R brace?

It's a very minimalist "blade" type brace. I certainly wouldn't want it on something with more recoil, but it seems well made. I like it well enough

Stupid post office only had my barrel. Assholes! This is where I'm at. Gas blocks just slid on there. Obviously I can't install it until the handguard/barrel nut show up.

It has a nice retro look, which I appreciate.  I might have to add one to the crew.  Variety and spice and all.

Ive considered pinning a 14.5 i have on a registered lower, swapping lowers and putting a real stock on this one, but I'm going to wait until it's done and I get some time with it before I decide. Might be perfectly happy with it the way it is. I agree on the retro look

Still not done, but it's starting to identify as a gun

Still waiting on my light and I'm fighting myself on the Proctor sling and mbus sights. Not a big fan of either, but as far as being a completed gun goes, it qualifies. It's light and handy. The mbus and Proctor are perfectly suitable for under the truck seat, but i like what i like and i know they'll change.
Damn it. File size error. Stand by...

Not sure the mbus or Proctor sling will stick around. They're perfectly adequate for it's intended use, but i like what I like and those aren't it. Lights still in the mail, but it's definitely a gun now. I like it. Light, handy, we'll balanced.

Done! I'll probably put the aimpoint back on when it eventually finds it's way into the truck, but for now I'm too busy playing with it, so a 16" BCM is pulling truck duty right now.

I have a 12.5 upper 5.56 and it's a pretty good shooter, lots of fun. Congrats on your build, it looks very good.

Great looking build. I have one that's very similar that resides behind my truck seat.

I predict you're going to really like it.

Is it about as thick as the KAK Shockwave brace?

I have a couple of those on 556 pistols, they are fine.
A true Texan would never leave his friends behind!

It's similar. It's perfectly fine on an AR.
