How y'all doing...been issued a Bushmaster for several years while on patrol. Qualified with it yearly and that was that. Never really took an interest in it as I was much more comfortable with pistols. Even buying my own DPMS and putting a SPARC red dot on it, I still wasn't all that interested in the AR platform.

Made the SWAT team and after the school and a 3 day carbine class, I realized, these things are indeed fun and versatile. Coworker whose much more knowledgeable than I am with AR's convinced me to sell the DPMS for a 6920 in FDE and the bug has bit. Just acquired a Centurion C4 rail for it and plan to add the ALG ACT trigger, Aimpoint PRO, TLR light, Rainier Pro charging handle and it should be fit for duty so I can have the Bushmaster as a back-up rifle.

I don't anticipate posting very much, seems like all my questions have been answered either in the stickies or by searching.

Hey Everyone.. My name is Trevor... Been in the Air Force almost 19 years.. Stationed in NC. I used to own an AR10 and soon realized that it wasnt cost effective to shoot a semi auto .308...i switched over to the 5.56 and couldnt be happier. i reload all my own ammo and it has become more of an obsession than a hobby. i laugh at the nutty prices of ammo and how folks still go crazy for it.. reloading match grade 5.56/.223 ammo for ~.25 cents a round is hard to beat..

thanks for activating my account.

Trevor

Hello everyone.... I've been reading the forums for a while now and decided to join. I hail from western NC but am currently living in Charlotte, NC. Here to listen and learn. Hopefully I'll be able to add my two cents every now and again.

Hello all, My name is Keith I am from Mckinney, Texas. I have been around guns my whole life. Mostly bolt, lever, pumps, break over, and various pistols. ARs are whole new ball game for me. I am currently working on my first AR. I have went from just planning on slapping one together for about 500.00 to slowly piecing together my attempt at a "quality" first build.

Currently I have being sent to me a damage industries enchanced buffer spring. and their mil spec tube (thinking I should have bought a vltor now) I have a palmetto state armory blem lower with a bottom of the barrel LPK (anderson arms)

I am planning on getting a spikes buffer replacing my trigger group (still learning about stages and best triggers under 100.00)
build plan is a 300 blk shooting for under 7 pounds 16" or dream with maybe 11.5 barrel silenced with 14" keymod rail BAD selector etc FDE accents mainly cerokoted finish
been lurking for awhile figured I would finally post. opening to all suggestions.

Thanks in advance
