Im looking for a few things, and I was wondering who on the board could suggest who I should consider for making this, or where to buy the right parts and I could just build it myself, also, if anyone has had a particular good experience with someone etc.


I want to make an 18 inch Upper for varmits/Pdogs.  I would like to make it as tan or camo'ed as possible, as all my AR's tend to be hunting rigs.  First off, does anyone offer a GUN KOTE'ed upper or barrel?  Secondly, what barrel would be optimial for this set up. I want to be able to take yotes and Pdogs out to 250-300 yards ( a P dog is about 3 inches across and 7-10 inches tall at most), what barrel and weight should I consider?

For the FF handguard, is there a Tan one made, or do I also need to GUN KOTE that, I like what I have heard about Kote and so was thinking it was the way to go.  Any one on the board who could make this for me?  

My other thought process would be, if I got an 16 inch barrel and just added on a FH would I lose anything from the 18 inch, as far as trade off goes?  

Would a mid length gas system make a difference?


Below is the set up I was thinking of, feel free to critique it or add or remove what you would to improve my idea.

18 inch LW Barrel Gun Koted tan
LaRue 13.2
Troy Medieval FH
CAV Tan lower


If I was to build this myself, who should I consider for my upper recieve rec? CMT?

Thanks for any and all help you can provide!!


Again if theres any dealer you think could do this all for me, and thus keep it simple for me, please message me or post who and how there stuff worked out for you!  

Thanks!
