Calling this my "quarantine build" because it really just started out of boredom. Also because I wanted to try a few new things, namely the Leupold LCO. Always been an Aimpoint & Eotech guy but have been curious about this optic for quite a while now. I like its features. Also very interested to see how the Criterion barrel performs.
Some parts were selected like I said to try different components or brands that I haven't had much experience with yet...trigger, handguard, sights, etc. Hoping to throw all this together within the next few days.
UPPER:
Vltor MUR receiver
Criterion CORE 14.5" .223 Wylde 1-8 twist barrel
Geissele MK8 13" handguard
BCM bcg & charging handle
BCM low-pro gas block
Lantac black nitrided gas tube
Lantac/SilencerCo Dragon muzzle brake (with a SilencerCo ASR blast shield on its way)
Midwest Industries Combat iron sights
Leupold LCO
Not pictured: my lighting system. Still undecided...might go with my usual Surefire Scout & SR07 switch or try the Modlite OKW with the Hot Button.
