Today I got in my Primary Arms M3 Clone and added it to the AR. Now I'm really just a FDE Aimpoint rubber cover, a sling and rail covers from being finished. Here is what's in it so far. I know some people will question me for not going with an Aimpoint. I probably will when I get back from Afghanistan but on my budget right now this is a fun substitute. I've included some before and after pics too. Let me know what ya'll think!

How is the optic?

Looks good! I'm still working on my first build, just waiting on a rear sight and an optic.

I really like it...it's plenty bright for shooting outside on a bright day on the 5 or 6 setting of the 7 settings. It's also aluminum and really feels durable and the glass is clear. The guy who runs Primary arms has torture tested the crap out of them and so have a lot of members. I have yet to shoot it. But will on monday and plan on posting here.

Finished rifle?  I didn't know there was such a thing.  Mine are like money pits.  Endless mods and upgrades; always some new and better or different or I just get in heat for something and MUST FUCKING HAVE IT!!!!

+1

although my changes have slowed considerably in the last couple years.

Well I figure if I "finish" one out...that's a good excuse to give the wife for why I MUST HAVE another

Stategery my friends.
