Alright, I am bored out of my mind covering my jobsite today. After a long and exhausting week, I doubt I'll get much of value done so I am going to order some goodies for my 20" AR. I have widener's and midway's pages open and ready to go. My budget is $150 (my christmas bonus to myself.)  What would you order if you were me?

Current Rifle Specs- I don't have pictures at work
- 20" A4 Bushmaster upper with 1/9 twist, A2 front sight, A2 handguards and flash hider.
- Bushmaster lower with DPMS LPK, Magpul MOE grip and A2 stock. The trigger is gritty, heavy and awful.
- Optic old tasco 2.5-12 in Warne AR quick detach rings.  I need to upgrade my optic but I want to wait until I have more funds available and a clearer direction of where I am going to go with this rifle.
- Bipod- Harris 6"-9" with sling Stud mount in handguard
- Currently shoots around 1" to 1.25" groups at 100 yards with my reloads consisting of 2x fired FC brass, 24.7 grs of H335, wolf SRM primer and bulk 55gr FMJ bullets from Wideners. Last time I was at the range my groups were opening up to about 4" to 5" at 200 yards from prone but the shooting conditions were awful.

What I am thinking of ordering
- JP trigger Spring Kit. The trigger on my rifle really needs some work. I don't want to drop $100 + on a drop in assembly
- A sling. I need a decent sling to help cart the rifle around. I don't need anything tactictal, just something that will work nicely with the stock sling loops and the bipod in place.
- New Handguard, gas block etc. to free float the barrel. This seems like overkill to me as the upper shoots just fine.
- Reloading components to work up a 62 gr or 69 gr load. Again not sure if this is neccessary. I doubt I'll ever shoot past 300 yards and I like to keep all my reloads close to my Q1313a shtf stash.
- More powder, primers etc to keep on loading my current recipe.

Sorry, arfcom protocol dictates that I have to.     Case of Vagisil.

Mags

Can't have enough, and when you fish for new rifle stuff its hard to beat extra mags.

Also a Gear Sector 2pt sling is always a nice addition.

Huh? Maybe I am slow this morning and missing something. What do you mean?

Just got one of these and it Awesome!!! Forget paying $50-60 for any sling.

May I suggest one of these as well:

I like the looks of that sling! Thanks!

Spike's Battle trigger: $60
VTAC Sling: $30
Primary arms red dot: $80

$20 over budget, but that would cure a lot of your problems

The BCM gunfighter is an awesome charging handle, but to me it sits lower on the list of priorities given what you have.

Armorers wrench
Torque wrench
Upper receiver vise block
Lower receiver vise block
Punch set

Another lower receiver. The one you got is already finished.

I would probably order something for reloading, spare parts< or cleaning since it is winter.

Free Float Tube - $75

Spikes Trigger - $60

Sling - $27

about $12 over your budget, but after that you should be pretty much done with your rifle unless later you want to upgrade optic like you said and if you wanted to change stocks at some point.  but that's up to you.

Order ammo from plametto state armory.  Thats what I did Thursday.

Hmmm that Spike's trigger looks interesting. I am worried about a JP Spring Kit not having enough oomph for Mil-spec primers and I do like Spike's stuff. My 16" middy upper from them is awesome!
