View Full Version : long time lurker, finally pulled the trigger
Hello gang. I have been lurking here for at least a year before i signed up mainly because a buddy of mine bought his AR to a shoot 2 winters ago and i fell in love with it. luckily he was a wealth of knowledge and lead me to a few places to find information and products.
i finally decided to take the plunge a few months ago and put one together. its a mega lower with a dd lpk with a bcm lw 16 upper. cant stake the asap for the life of me but ill keep trying.

Solid choice of components.
For staking the ASAP get a spring loaded auto punch, once you get a mark started just keep punching and once you get a decent indentation you can angle the punch toward the castle nut and guide the metal toward it. It will require multiple strikes.

Welcome to the forum. Nice AR!
You got all the best parts!!!
thanks guys. i dont know about the best parts, but i was able to stick to a modest budget and get a quality rifle i think.
I have no experience with Mega but it looks like a good build. Part of what you are doing is adding to and removing what you feel improves the system for you. I have a carbine like yours that never seems to be done.
It gets really bad when you start buying barrels to swap out.
I would suggest that you save up for a good RDS next.
The all that is left is bullets and practice.
An RDS in definitely the next major purchase. Didn't realize how necessary it was until I shot the rifle.
