Finally got around to assembling my first AR. Been thinking about it for a while. It's not meant for any particular purpose. It's just a collection of parts that I've always wanted to try putting together.

UPPER
- BADLW556 billet upper
- DD 16" CHF ML Govt profile barrel
- MicroMOA Govnah gas block (0.063/0.055/0.073 ports)
- generic gas tube
- SilencerCo ASR flash hider
- ALG 13" EMR V2 w/ barrel nut and Ti screws
- Strike Industries polymer dust cover
- Geissele charging handle
- Aimplus NiB BCG
- Magpul MBUS Pro set
- Vortex Viper PST 1-4 on Bobro cantilever mount

LOWER
- BADLW556 billet lower
- Geissele S3G 3.5lb trigger w/ Ti trigger/hammer pins
- Norgon ambi mag release
- Strike Industries bolt catch w/ Ti detent
- BAD Ti pivot and takedown pins
- V7 Ti safety selector

Unloaded weight (no mag or ammo) without scope/mount is 6lbs 4.5oz. I wasn't going for lightweight as much as I was interested in seeing the interplay of all the parts that were of interest to me. I'll report back after I've had a chance to break it in. I may be swapping bits over time so this will be an evolving build.

Looks good! More on the space/moon gun end of things than I go for, but I can always respect a good lightweight rifle.

Thanks! Yeah it is kind of spacey with the titanium bits but I'm interested in testing the long-term durability claims of Ti. The weight savings is a bonus. Once I've settled on a final configuration I'll paint all the shiny bits with FDE paint.
