Hi all,

Im looking to put together my first AR. Below is the parts list. The build is more of an accuracy focused rifle for calm, slow target shooting at the range. Im looking for advice on both the compatibility of parts and the quality of parts I have chosen. In other words, do you see any areas where I can improve the quality of the build for around the same price?

Thanks.

You'll get better accuracy out of a SS 1:8 or 1:9 barrel with a Wylde chamber.

You can pick up a lot of your parts a bit cheaper at Trading Place Pawn.  For instance I picked up 2 sets of MBUS Gen2 sights for $75 each a couple of weeks ago.



And really, a $20 bi-pod on an $1850 rifle...
