[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Got that first build rolling, finally

Posted: 5/19/2011 5:00:54 PM EDT

Got home for my R&R, started my build. Would have had it done but had a few set backs, namely not reading that the barrel I bought from Rainier Arms was bead blasted, not shiney stainless. However, a quick email to Rainier, got me a RMA and a promise to order one that wasnt bead blasted and send it right out, I cannot speak highly enough of their customer service (and Military discount pricing). Sorry about the crappy cell phone pics.

Parts list (without prices, Im sorry, forgot to write them down, lets just say I overspent ALOT)

Mega Arms matched Billet upper/lower with Charging handle.
Youngs MFG stainless BCG
RRA LPK with Ergo and RRA NM 2stage (didnt use triggger)
Geissele S3G dynamic trigger
Rainier Arms Ultra Match 18.5" SPR barrel
Rainier Arms SS low profile gas block
Rifle length gas
VTAC TRX Extreme Rail
JP enterprises Tactical compensator SS
Larue Tactical LT-104 mount
Viper Vortex PST 2.5-10 (on order still)
Atlas bipod with QD
MagPul PRS stock (ordered brownells A2 stock compeltion kit)

Started off with this, a Mega Arms Billet lower

And decided to go with this trigger

RRA LPK with Ergo (BTW I have RRA 2 Stage trigger left over..what to do with it)

Had no issues with the detent spring on the pivot pin, I used a razor blade to hold it down while I slid the pin in and it went just fine!

Assembled except for the stock.....I think I missed something. Do A2 tubes need castle nuts?
I LOVE they dynamic trigger!
