Ok, seeing so many completed builds, I took a photo of my not quite finished AR...
Kinda depressing seeing 3/4 of an AR and having to wait to try it out...
Mostly done, still need a barrel which is on back order from ADCO. A 16" fluted Wilson stainless hbar mid. Please Steve, hurry! ;-)
Only thing left to do is to decide which handguard I want. I can go with a YHM Lightweight quad rail, a RockRiver Aluminum free float tube, or a Briley's Custom carbon free float tube. I'm leaning towards the Briley's because the carbon is light and heat resistant.
The YHM is the most expensive option and the heaviest, not because of the handguard but because I'd wind up hanging stuff off the rails. It's also the least ergonomic because of the rails. I'm not really one who seeks to "tac out" but if I've got them, I'd probably use them.
The RockRiver mid-length I like the looks of the best but it gets hot.
What do you think and why?
