This is new to me. I’ve been interested in a couple factory rifles (Savage MSR generally, M&P10’s ambi controls) but not enough to purchase one. So looking to start accumulating parts for a modern “battle rifle” build that is capable of reaching out to touch something at long range if put to it. I do particularly want this to be FDE, the only rifle non-black that I will own currently. The only parts I have currently are the handguard, BCG, and trigger.
What am I missing, any concerns with the below?
Aero Precision M5 receivers - Purchased BF, went with black just for the price
Aero Precision M5 LPK - Purchased BF
No-Name chrome BCG from peacegeek (worth the risk to try it for $128) - Not wisest choice, but going to try it since I purchased prior to asking
Brownell’s BRN-10 20” lightweight barrel with FSB (will cut down FSB) - Purchased BF
Troy 15” carbon fiber handguard, FDE - purchased at same time as BCG
LaRue MBT-2S - Have on hand
LMT MWS Buffer Kit - Purchased BF
Questions I have would involve receiver extensions/buffers, LPK, etc. I have a Blaster Pack from SOLGW...will this work with 308 receivers? I believe I read that the width of the receiver can cause a problem at times... What parts does this affect? And the receiver extension... Magpul has one specifically for the SR-25, right? What buffer would be appropriate to use with this?
I’m in no rush, and would plan to make purchases around Black Friday.
Open to any and all input, this is all new to me. Mostly a project to add a 308 to the stash.
