I got bored the other night and decided to throw some parts together that had been laying around for a time. I had bought a couple of stripped lowers almost a couple of years back and had partially built one up and then paid to have the rest of it put together. Well, I've gone and done the same now with this one. I decided on an OD color scheme. MEGA upper and lower, RRA LPK w/ standard trigger, LaRue BCG, gas buster CH, LaRue BUIS w/ same plane aperture, Mapgul sling and ASAP and PMAG and tigger guard. Spike's Tactical buffer tube with cover by Stitcher.













Joining the family...





I will eventually finish it the same way as the first one -  a BCM 11.5" standard barrel with a 9" LaRue rail. I would eventually like to put T-1s on both of them.

I'm beginning to think that if this build is intended for my girlfriend I should go with a 7.5" barrel. Pistols not having a lot of weight on the back-end, I think she would handle the weapon easier with less weight at the front. An Aimpoint Micro T-1 or H-1 for an optic would also help to keep the weight down, as well. I wonder which would work best: a 4" rail or a 7" rail? There was a 4" Daniel Defense lite rail on the EE recently that I failed to acquire. I deliberated too long on the asking price of $100 and msrp is over $200, if I recall correctly, so someone got a pretty good deal. A 4" rail makes me want to go with a shorter barrel, but anything shorter than 7" doesn't make sense to me.
