First AR done, pics to follow

**Bill Bryant** · 09-26-09, 19:55

I just made my last decision and ordered my last part (except for a light mount). Here's what my first AR will be when I snap it all together next week:

Stag lower receiver
Stag/CMT lower parts
Bravo Company mil-spec extension
Bravo Company charging handle
Magpul MOE stock (FDE)
Magpul MOE grip (FDE)
Magpul MOE handguard (FDE)
Magpul rear MBUS (FDE)
Bravo Company standard 16" upper receiver group
Bravo Company bolt carrier group
Surefire G2
?? mount for G2 ??

I'm still looking at optics options and thinking about a 6.8 upper at some point for certain kinds of hunting. I'm also keeping a standard grip, stock, and handguard around for my son to mess with so he can decide what he likes after he deploys. Maybe a Tango grip too, just to feel several possibilities.

How'd I do?

Any feedback?

Parts seem good to go.
Since you're using a G2, you could consider the VTAC offset mount? They're lightweight, and they won't break the bank account. I'm running a VTAC mount with my G2 on it, and it's still running strong.

I'll check out the VTAC. Thanks.

For optic options check out Laruetactical.com they have pretty good deals on optics with their mounts on them...I look forward to seeing some pics. What are your sling options going to be?

I have no idea. I don't know enough about either the platform in general or what I'll be doing with it to be able to think about a sling. Coyote hunting truck tool. Practice carbine for my delayed entry USMC son. Testosterone plinker. House clearing zombie getter. Protest against creeping statism. I guess I'll think about slings when I settle on what this rig is . . . for. Is there a universal sling for all of the above?

EMDOM Gunslinger Sling
Can be used as a one point or two point, similar to the Magpul MS2 but with a wider strap.
