[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Need some opinions on a 14.5 build

Posted: 11/20/2008 5:35:24 AM EDT

I've got a RRA 'Matched' stripped upper & lower and would like to build a 14.5 or .7 Car.
With a CTR on one end and an M4 brl and quad rail on the other, what would be your choice to it's internal guts, such as LPK, bolt carrier, etc. I paid too much for the
matched set so I want to buy smart on the rest of it.
It'll probably have a LaRue UDE combo w/down grip.

Thanks All...

Oh yeah, and f*ck Obama

Don't skimp the BCG...buy from a decent manufactuer. The LPK can be anything that works and isn't like grinding two stones together. I've used RRA and CMMG LPKs...reasonable prices and I have no complaints. Also if your thinking Larue, spend the money and get one of their floated quad rails. You'll thank yourself later.

What barrel are you going with?

I'd get an LMT Bolt Carrier Group

Rainier Arms has a pretty good price on LMT bolt carrier groups, if they are in stock.

I prefer RRA / CMT LPK's with CMT bolt / carriers.

Probably a Wilson chrome lined.

PKs still has Rock River LPKs with NM triggers. That's what I'd use.
