I'm probably going to get the $385 BCM upper from my father and then do the BCG and charging handle myself. That will bring my total in spending to somewhere around the $300 mark (BCG and charging handle, Magpul handguard, MVG, VTac flashlight mount, rear MBUS, I don't think I'm missing anything).
I guess I was caught off-guard because I didn't know there was such a thing as a poser in the AR15 world, unless it was used to describe someone who puts together fake builds online to pretend to own an AR maybe? Sort of like someone going to a Corvette forum talking about how awesome their Corvette is, when he/she is 15 years old and doesn't have a car at all. It seems to me that if you want to build a rifle to mount on your wall, that shouldn't make you a poser- just a frivolous spender, for example
