Here is my latest rifle build, intended for my wife (albeit she rarely gets out to the firing range with me rolleyes.gif). My intent was to build a target rifle, using the lightest components I could find and afford..... alas, that exercise essentially got shot-to-shit when I went with a heavy barrel. Here are all the component parts that I went with for this AR build:
Battle Arms Development
-- BAD556 Lightweidht 7075-T6 Billet Receiver Set
-- Enhanced Pin Set
-- Enhanced Modular Mag Release
-- Short Throw Ambi-Safety Selector w/ Crank levers
-- Black Melonite rife length gas tube
Norgon Ambi Mag Release
Seekins Precision Enhanced Bolt Catch
Geissele Super Tricon FCG
AXTS Raprtor Ambi Charging Handle
BCM Gunfighter Mod 3 Pistol Grip
Fortis Low Profile Gas Block
Lancer Systems: LCR5 Round Carbon Fiber Extra Long Premium Handguard, and Carbon Fiber Fixed A2 rear Stock
JP Enterprise Silent Captured Buffer Spring
VooDoo Innovations DI Lifecoat Integral Gas Key Carrier with 5.45 Bolt Head Assembly
R Guns 20" Fluted 1/8 twist Chrome Molly Match Grade Barrel
B.E. Meyers 249F Flash Hider
Aero Precision Ultralight Scope Mount
Vortex Diamondback HP 4-16x42 optic with BDC Reticle
Harris BR Bipod
I think that covers everything.
I haven't had her out to the range yet (it's been raining almost non-stop here in the Pacific Northwest), but I'm naturally hoping that she will be a really nice shooting AR target rifle.
There were two mods that I had to make: The BCM Mod 3 pistol grip's duck bill needed to be removed due to the slanted angle of my lower's integral trigger guard, and I had to fabricate a sling point bracket to affix the Harris bipod to on the bottom of the carbon fiber handguard. Everything else with putting this rifle together was gravy.
