Hey all..... let me first start by saying that before joining m4carbine.net I knew almost nothing about the ar-15 platform and how it functioned..... I've been checking out alot of threads the past couple of days and now I want to build my own rifle by the end of 2011 (money is tight) it will actually be my first "tactical" style rifle...... but I'd like something higher grade.
The base knowledge threads were a great help in learning what to look for in a quality weapon, and I thank all who were involved in the assembly of those threads.
I was looking at Noveske rifles, Daniel Defense, and Lewis Machine & Tool, all of which seem to hold very solid reputations here on the forums. Noveske is too expensive, and I'm not sure if I'd like to go with a piston system, and I think I'd like to have something just a tad heavier than an M4 profile barrel...... I'd like to try to stay below the $2500 for just the rifle and some BUIS.... optics aren't in the picture yet.
I was thinking of putting a 16" Noveske SS upper on an LMT Defender lower, then adding Troy BUIS to the setup. I'd put a Daniel Defense rail on it if I chose not to go with the Vltor monolithic upper offered by Noveske........ which seems like a very durable upper.
Any thoughts on this idea or recommendations on how to make it better?
