First off let me say hello to everyone. This is my first build and I wanted a challenge so I started with a 0% DSArms forging. Haas/Bridgeport machining (self wrote programs on Haas... I wasn't totally lazy lol). Locally sent out for anodizing ( good anodizing but wasn't happy with color match so I finished it with a coat of matte black duracoat) added  Magpul CTR stock, Miad grip, Pmag all in FG, ASAP SP sling adapter, PSA lower kit, JP springs, and a PSA stripped upper. Topped off with a Bushmaster carry handle for the time being until I can afford optics. Now time so save $$$ and finish this thing Let me know what you guys think

Wait, back up....you did that lower from a 0% forging? You have to be kidding, that thing looks like you bought if off the rack!

Yes, remember the forging already comes in the shape that you see in the picture, I add the deck and radius cut, all holes, trigger guard slot, mag well and trigger pockets, mag release slots, buffer threads

Damn cool.  Did you do your own roll mark or engraving or leave it blank?

All I did was F & S engraving around the selector hole
