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.




LOWER:

Vltor VRA-R receiver

Magpul SL-S stock

Hiperfire EDT Heavy Gunner trigger

Phase 5 safety selector

Not pictured: BCM Mod 0 grip and Knight's Armament trigger guard (both still on their way)

Sling will be either a Ferro Concepts Slingster or Vickers
