So far I have ordered
http://palmettostatearmory.com/index.php/m4-premium-16-cmv-chrome-lined-stripped-upper-without-bcg-or-charging-handle.html And I had planned to order http://palmettostatearmory.com/index.php/firearms/receivers/psa-ar-15-complete-blem-lower-magpul-moe-edition-od-green-no-magazine.html But it went out of stock. I know this won't be a build of the highest quality, but it's my first AR. My brother has built one using similar parts. I plan on using the LMT or BCM full auto BCG. I picked up an OD Pmag. I have a buddy who has a type 01 FFL, a lower can be sent to him, correct? Also what's a decent inexpensive optic, doesn't have to magnify much, or at all. Or should I just save up for something in the $500 range? Thanks! |

Palmetto still has the complete MOE lower in fde for 199 if you arent set on OD.
The quality of that rifle would actually be pretty good. A lot better than most complete rifles in the sub $700 range. As for optics, get the best you can afford. If you can afford a Aimpoint/Eotech/Trijicon or good magnified scope, get one. If you cant, the Primary Arms micro dot, Bushnell TRS25, Vortex Sparc and Lucid M7 are great optics if you want a Aimpoint T1 type sight, or Vortex Strikefire or Lucid HD7 if you want a Aimpoint Pro type sight. Then theres a number of1-4x or 1-6x scopes under $300. |

I still kind of favor OD, but maybe FDE is the way to go. I figured going PSA, and a high quality BCG, I'll have a good quality first rifle, nothing to be disappointed with. I think I am liking the look of the Lucid HD7. Thanks! |

I paid $175 shipped for mine and it really is a great sight. |
I've bought an 870 and a 700 and they don't see much daylight.
