Newbie here about to make the plunge.  I have assembled the full list of parts but want to bounce this off the experts as to if I have missed anything or something would not work in this configuration.

Thanks

You've got a 14.5" bbl, a separate flash hider, and a buttstock - could be trouble.  The flash hider needs to be permanently affixed to the 14.5" bbl before you attach the buttstock to the weapon.  Take pics w/out the buttstock, post in the pistol forum, print out, retain.  Then install the buttstock.

Gig 'em,

Pinning the flash hider was the first thing I was planning on doing before the actual assembly.  For some reason I just liked the idea of a shorter overall length for mobility.  I know it is not much but maybe more perceived length than anything.  It will primarily be used for plinking and hogs.
