less than 2 hrs in with the help of stickies in this forum
From this 12:24 am http://dzmedia.com/dmitry/Gats/ar15/1%20(1).jpg to this 2:08 am http://dzmedia.com/dmitry/Gats/ar15/2%20(1).jpg http://dzmedia.com/dmitry/Gats/ar15/photo%20(1).jpg The build was pretty easy actually..I scratched the lower receiver just a tiny bit in some spots so i will need to get that touched up i guess. Other than that pretty straight forward assembly. now i dont know if the gun will shoot or not but from the cock/trigger pull test it works just fine. I need to find someone with a stock wrench so i can tighten my stock more. other than that i need to get some ammo and go shoo it. Here is what the build cost me. Stripped Lower-$120 Complete Upper - $550 Lower Parts Kit - $76 6 Position Adjustable Stock - $69 Front Grip/Bipod - $29 Front Grip Rail - $79 Hand Guards x2 - $5 Ergonomic Pistol Grip with Palm shelf - $30 Walther PS22 Red Dot -$79 Magazines x3 - $11 Grand Total = $ 1,075 Just rifle with no bling Stripped Lower-$120 Complete Upper - $550 Lower Parts Kit - $76 6 Position Adjustable Stock - $69 Total - $848 I think with the way prices are nowadays I did pretty good. Now i just have to get another lower for my second LPK :-) |

Where did you find a Grizzly lower for $120?
Looks like a guild build price. I put a couple scratches on my stripped lower putting it together. I figure it's a shooter and not a safe queen so it's fine IMO if it gets scratched. I have a different gun I'll keep nice and pretty. |
Looks nice, but I think you have the red dot backwards in the mount. 
It's a SPOT scope corect? Click on the hotlink and if you look at their pictures, you can see what I mean... |

I got the grizzly lower at a gun show before obama beat clinton in the primaries.
and im pretty sure i have the sight correct http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c17/rumblephish12r/Walthercloseup.jpg?t=1239166853 http://www.full-metal.com.ar/fotos/walther7(1).jpg |
lol 
Your AR doesn't use a scout rail way up front does it? You can position your mount however makes you happy. Generally - the *reason* for the cantilever design - is to get the mount as far forward as possible - not to turn it around and use it to get the optic farther back. The farther forward the dot based optic - the fast and more natural point shooting is. That is why they were designed as such. Also it allows the dot optic to be placed far enough forward - to place a magnifier or night vision behind it. Just because some goobers in Walther picture-marketing cannot figure it out... doesnt mean we need to copy them.
