Built my first ar at a bad time. It has taken me since 2012 to make this happen as i have been wholey unwilling to pay some of the prices that people have been asking shortly after getting my stripped lower. I tried to stick with companies that have reputations for excelence and build it with reliabilty in mind first and smooth shooting second. I am very happy with the way it turned out. It has even got my wife to go shooting with me more. Flawless function in 600 rounds so far aside from a couple cheap magazines. Pmags have solved that.
Lower:
Noveske gen2 FFL
Dpms parts kit. (Got from a friend for a fair and reasonable price when lower parts were non existant. Trigger is remarkably unnoticable, it goes bang when i think bang)
Vltor a5 reciever extention buffer, spring, and end plate
Vltor emod stock fde
Magpul moe grip fde. (Started with a moe k but didnt like the thinness)
Seekins precision mag release button
Upper:
Seekins precision sp223 billet upper
Colt m4a1 14.5" barrel. (plan on supressor in the future and wanted to minimise poi shift with the heavier profile.)
F marked front sight/gas block
Knights Armament MAMS (pinned and welded by my self cause i am a welder by trade)
Daniel Defense carbine length lite rail
Dadiel Defense 1.5 fixed rear sight
Daniel Defense bcg
Rainier arms raptor charging handle (fuggin sweet by the way)
Magpul rfg
Magpul rail covers
Gear Sector qd swivel socket
To come:
Eotech exps3 fde or leupold mk4 1.5-5x20
Surefire x300 ultra
Knights Armament qdc suppressor
Sling
More pmags
Ammo
Like i said i am very happy with the way this project has turned out. I originaly wanted a RIS II FSP rail in fde but i couldnt pass up the deal i got on the lite rail and am actualy happy with the weight savings. The rifle is kinda portly as is with out an optic, light, or suppressor. I started with a moe k grip and liked the angle but i have large hands and my trigger finger felt cramped on the trigger. Might try the k2 grip but am currently happy with the moe grip. Cant wait to start in on the other gen 2 stripped lower i have.
