I will probably switch out the ACOG for an Aimpoint or DD iron sights sooner or later for HD purposes, but I want to have some fun with my acog for a bit. I will also put a light on it.

Any comments and criticism is welcome.

Looks nice! Agree about using a non-magnified optic for HD. But while you have the ACOG on there see if you can find a range that goes out to 500 yards. You may be surprised what a well built SBR can do at distance.

Love the SD-C! It's the only trigger I will use in builds and I want to put one in every rifle I own.

[dentron]

Thanks! Yeah I plan on seeing what it can do before switching optics. I agree on the SD-C, they are the best do-all trigger that I have tried.

[dentron]

Very nice. My next build will be pretty close to this

Thank you

Very nice. I'm still waiting on my form 1 to clear for almost the exact same setup for my second SBR.

Sweet! What did you do same/different? I haven't shot it in its current configuration with the .072 port and A5, but I did shoot it as a pistol with a .067 port and a carbine reciever extension. It handled nice, but wasn't as flexible with ammo as I would like hence the changes. This was before vltor had the A5 pistol REs, but even with those available, I think a proper stock is worth the stamp.

[el_chingoton13]

Exact same lower and lower parts, except for V7 Ti endplate and castle nut and I opted for FDE BCM furniture and an SSA-E. I even just got that same barrel for use on my other SBR, haven't shot it yet though. I look forward to it.

[dentron]

Nice. I think you will like the barrel.

[Benito]

Nice build!
The pistol grip is way too funky looking for my tastes, but that's purely personal preference.
Get some irons on that puppy. Check out the Offset Magpul MBUS Pros. I posted up a brief review of them a bit ago, in case you are curious.
I think it would work well with your setup, but you would have to move your ACOG forward a bit. You might need the Macedon Defense KRAM to make it work.

Yeah irons will come with an aimpoint, or maybe just fixed irons only. Yeah I know the Stark grip gets a lot of hate, but I have tried almost every grip available and it is by far the most comfortable for me. It gets my finger in perfect position on the trigger while maintaining a firm grip.
