Why do the loudest do the least?
Thanks all - yeah the stock and hand guard are temporary...
I am going to look out for a good fixed rear sight - possibly a carry handle.
I have a Spikes buffer in (it's on a factory complete Spikes lower) and it has been pretty smooth so far.
Still going back and forth on if I want to do A5 or A2.
If I can snag a complete BCM a2 lower from grant or Ranier I may just go that route.
In my opinion, AR's are similar to old cars.
We "tinker" with them adding this or that, going for 100% stock, all out horsepower, or a combination of the two for our particular tastes or wants/needs.
Cool job getting it like you want it man. Keep it up, it's looking great!
While I certainly don't need one of these, I carried an M16A4 for a few months at the beginning of my first Iraq deployment. I'd like to have one, but I'm not sure that I'll add the KAC handguard. There's a lot of heavy rail on that handguard with limited use - I had a VFG and nothing else on mine in Iraq, and it basically just made it heavier and less balanced. I might keep it simple with the original handguards as a momento of my time as a cadet...
It really is a classic, good-looking rifle. Congrats,
Dave
The only things that matter are that it looks good to you and that it shoots well. I'm going to do an 80% next year and plan to make it a standard 20" rifle.

Common sense is only right wing if you are too far to the left.
A pistol without a round chambered is an intricate paperweight.
Stop trying so hard to be offended.
Update.
Loving the 20" BCM so far and have it almost where I want it...
-Added moe handguards, cantilever rail panel and vg - set up like all my other ARs. Simple perfection.
-BCM blem lower from Grant to make it whole
-Picked up another PRO, but may switch to an A2 handle though to keep this an open site fun gun and I really like the feel better without the extra weight...
-Have a BCM comp I need to put on
-Still debating on the A5... Already soft shooting and will be even more so with the comp. Maybe I'll wait for a sale.
Edit - pic added.

Very nice setup! I'm a free float fan myself, but those MOE hand guards are very compelling.
Surprised you aren't going with a magnified scope of some kind, didn't you buy this for some longer-range stuff? But irons are a must have on any gun IMO, and if keeping it open-sighted makes you happy then stick with it!
