I want the 300 BLK for HD and the fact that I can go with a 8 inch barrel but 300 BLK is too expensive to just shoot for me and exotically right now. So I also want a 556 upper for SD if I dont have any 300 BLK on hand and for range blasting. Its going to likely be fed a steady diet of steel case wolf or whatever I can find for cheap. Ive been trying to keep the price reasonable in the budget category but as long as its under a G its fine. So as this could be used for HD and as a general GTFO gun maybe its gotta be reliable.
The lower is basically done and the parts are on the way. Aero, SOLGW LPK, SBA3, H2 buffer and a springco blue. The plan for the trigger is a larue MBT1S..all told Im a hair over 350 into the lower and it should be GTG right?
The upper is another story I can piece one together for around 500 or so. I got a toolcraft BCG and a couple BCM blem uppers on the way. I was going to round out the upper likely with a BA 10.3 barrel and an aero or larue handguard. Now this would be fine but is it really duty grade? Can someone actuality build a duty grade upper?
If I wanted something truly duty grade where would I look? BCM, Sionics, SOLGW right? Anywhere else? What if I wanted to keep the price under 700 bucks with a BCG? Possible?
I am a nobody here and my option is worth < 0 but ...
I bought a Centurion Arms upper for my 6920 and it is spectacular. H/T to Stickman.
Cost blood? Yeah.
But I can’t afford a collection, unfortunately, so as I scrape scarce FRNs together I want to spend them on top-shelf quality parts and firearms. Acquisition is slow due to my limited finances, but there will likely never be a need to replace anything, ever.
