I am building my second ar and cant hardly decide on what to do. So far I have a RRA stripped lower and DPMS LPK and this is what I am thinking about doing with it.

RRA stripped lower
DPMS LPK
BCM buffer tube kit (h buffer)
Vltor basic modstock or LTM sopmod stock
Tango Down BG-16 or Magpul MIAD grip
probably a better trigger

Bushmaster upper receiver w/m4 feedramps
16" Bushmaster Patrolmans carbine barrel assembly
Larue Tactical 9.0" or 10.0" handguard
Daniel Defence or some other low profile gas block
BCM charging handle
BCM bolt & carrier or LMT or Young MFG.
Troy folding rear battle sight
Troy folding front battlesight-m4 type
Acog TA31F-G
Harris BRM-S 6"-9" bipod and Larue LT-130 QD mount

decisions, decisions.....    Opinions and Ideas are greatly appreciated. thanks

Change the barrel to a midlength and you have a pretty sweet idea. If you are going to have a 16" with 9 or 10" handguards, midlength is the way to go.
I would go 16" middy with the LaRue 10".

I would really like to have a Noveske middy barrel (16.1 recon) but would the 9" or 10" rail work with the carbine length gas system and low pro block? thanks

I've had problems with DPMS LPKs, doesn't mean you will, but I'd go with another brand.  I'd go with the LMT stock and MIAD.  And I'd go with the 10" rail.

The rail will work. I have done it. I just wish I had waited on a middy.

Josh, what problems have you had with the LPK? I have already installed it in my lower.

I've used four of them and they all worked fine.


What is the purpose of this rifle?  SHTF?  Bench shooting?  3-gun?  Plinking?  Varmints?  Other?

The purpose is for target shooting, plinking, good looks, and SHTF if needed. This will be my second AR though.

This is not what my post if about but here is my first AR that I just built. Would you consider it finished? I want an Eotech 512 and Larue Tactical  mount but I dont know if the mount would work good with my chopped buis which I am keeping.
