    First Build Done

    Hey everyone,

    I completed my first build w/ a bunch of help and input from guys here on the forum, friends, and flannel, thot slaying guys like Garand Thumb. I built it, shot it a couple times to function check it and then a buddy of mine was like, "I want it -how much?" So, I sold it to him for what I had into it.

    Please feel free to comment, critique, or suggest improvements for future builds.

    Aero Forged Lower - no complaints and I would trust the company enough to use it again.
    LPK: CMMG - I had no issues, but I don't like their CS so I will move on to bigger and better.
    Grip: LaRue APEG - I love it, but again no to Larue in the future.
    Trigger: Geissele SD-3G
    Trigger Guard: Phase 5 Winter Trigger Guard
    Safety Selector: Battle Arms Ambi
    Takedown Pins: Battle Arms Enhanced
    Receiver Extension Kit: LaRue - Will not use again and there are posts floating around w/ the reasons.
    Buffer: Carbine Weight
    Buffer Spring: Sprinco White
    Stock: LaRue RAT - I love it, but won't buy again because it's LaRue.

    Aero Forged Upper (Assembled) - no complaints.
    Barrel: BA Hanson 16"
    Gas Block: Pinned BA Nitride - Gas block is slightly canted despite pin and aligning set screws with factory marks, but it shot and ran well.
    Gas Tube: LaRue Mid-Length
    Handguard: LaRue 13.2 Quad
    Charging Handle: Geissele SCH
    BCG: Nitride Toolcraft
    Muzzle Device: PA AFAB - I bought it to throw on, but my buddy doesn't want it so I'm keeping it.
    Sights: Troy Folding Battle Sights - I just haven't mounted them.

    Finish: Cerakote Smoke - I'm not sold on cerakote over anodizing b/c of my shit experience, but not a knock against the product itself. It looks sexy to me.

    Can't think of anything else to say.
