Thanks guys.. My other AR, is my first..I bought it complete at a gun show, and its a older carbon 15 rifle. I used it to have one to shoot, while building my first traditional (not carbon 15) style AR.

Hunted.....I was thinking about one of the tacticool usuals...Acog, aimpoint, or eotech.
Really leaning towards eotech or aimpoint. I don't know that I want anything with magnification. I don't know what do you guys think

My belly isn't that big I promise...I had on multiple sweatshirts and whatnot that day..I work outside all day..new construction. I'm just a little guy...6' 185lbs.

After seeing your build last night, I got to talking with the wifey......I said, "Honey, since I spent a grand on your Bushmaster, can I build my rifle.....I'll save money if I build it myself"... ......she said......"how much will you save ".......I said......."oh, I can build what I want for around $700ish, and I can buy a few parts at a time, as I get the money"...........so I got this.... ......."ok, fine"......."thank you sweety" now, I don't ALWAYS have to ASK to spend the money, but we consider a weapon to be a major purchase of sorts, as we plan on keeping whatever we buy for many years......so I will be ordering my lower next week, and we'll be in touch.....do you have all the punches and tools?, or should I pick up a set?.....I guess if I'm going to get into building, I should get my own, no?...... |

Only thing I didn't have...which I borrowed from someone, was a barrel wrench. Everything else we need...stuff for the lower and what not Im sure I have..I've got punches and whatnot. LMK what happens. I've been wanting to get one of those sweet upper and lower reciever vise block setups. Those look like they make things so much easier
