I've done so much with so little for so long, I can do anything with nothing.

What kind of groups are you getting with it? 1-hole groups at 300 yds. 168gr A-Max Freedom Munitions loads. Probably even better if I pushed it out. |

I am currently assembling parts for the platform. My next purchase will be the BCG. My question is where can I find a BCG with the notches matching the forward assist? There are a lot of nice products out there but none that would make use of this feature. Granted, I'm a newb builder & I have a great gunsmith that provides sound advice but the arfcom gurus are a great source of information. I'll post pics of what I have later. For me the forward assist is not a deal breaker. Thanks in advance. |
Experience is what you get right after you need it.
An interesting thing about golf is that no matter how badly you play; it is always possible to get worse.

Here is the rifle that I just finished building. It's my DPMS SASS and my first AR build. I have owned ARs in the past but never customized them or built them. It was a fun puzzle.
ok, i give up. there must be some restriction on photo size. I resized down to 500px width and it is still not showing up. |

No frills.. DPMS LR308 (ORC).. with Magpul Carbine handguard (fits 100%), CTR (for commercial tube), and MPul + grip (going bye-bye as the backstrap doesn't fit and has gap)..
Also KAC rear micro peep and MI front flip sights.. Burris PEPR QD mount and Burris 4.5-14x42 762 C4 scope inbound.. 
As it sits for now (Hogue grip w/base on order).. Its 8lbs. as empty..

If I could only have one rifle in this world, I think this would be it exactly as configured with a good trigger and maybe a qd socket somewhere near the lower receiver end plate (and my suppressor is a Specwar). I'd love to see some groups. What kind of ammo does she like? Does the can affect accuracy or POI? I wouldn't mind seeing some pics with the can on, too. Sweet rifle bro. |

Nice stick! |
Here's my DPMS LR308. Barrel, receiver, and lower are original. Has a hydraulic buffer, PRS stock, Moe MIAD pistol grip, APEX Gator Grip handguard, Timney 4.5lb trigger, Vortex 5-15 Mil Dot scope, JP Bennie Cooley muzzle break (great brake but VERY LOUD). Shoots 168gr TAP factory ammo 4 shot groups at 100yds into less than 1/2in, when I don't jerk my trigger!! The 4 shots in the red are less than 1/2" OAL. The AMAX 168gr does just as good. The groups would be better with a better trigger man!!!!!!!!
