    Why are your sights on risers?

    I'm a right handed shooter and I'm left eye dominant. The AR is so flat that I couldn't get my left eye to line up, so using the risers lifted them up enough to use my left eye. My left eye instantly takes over when I shoot and I've found my right eye tracks pretty far off my left.

    Yes

    Noveske N4 Lower-Good call
    Vltor MUR-1A Upper-Robust may/ or may not need
    Timney 4lb Trigger-Any prior exp w/ standard triggers?
    Black Hole Weaponry 12.5in 6.8 SPC Spec II-Don't know anything about them
    BattleComp BABC-Good Comp
    Daniel Defense Omega X 12.0 Rail-Good Rail
    Sprinco "Blue" Buffer Spring-Ok
    Spikes ST-T2 Buffer-Gimmick
    KNS Anti-Rotation Pins-unneeded
    DPMS LPK-WTF, shitty LPK in decent setup
    Young MFG Bolt Carrier, Firing Pin and Cam Pin-OK
    ARP 6.8 Superbolt-???
    Troy DOA folding rear sight-Good sights but the risers WTF
    Troy M4 folding front sight-Good sights but the risers WTF
    BCM Mod 4 Charging Handle-Excellent
    Demon Tactical Quick Rear Takedown Pin-WTF
    Magpul UBR Stock-Nice stock, heavy but should balance the front well

    Just read your reason behind the risers. Hmm seems odd but if it works!

    The ARP bolt is from AR15perfomance.com. He is well known among the 6.8 guys and his bolt is well liked. I went with the Timney bc I don't like two stage triggers...never have. The risers, see post above. As far as the BCG, it locks up tight and is a nice piece. The cheap lpk, honestly I guess I went with it bc most ppl talk about the trigger being the issue in a cheap LPK and I wasn't using a stock trigger so it made no difference to me.

    Forget the hate... that's a sweet looking rig...

    Let us know how she shoots! I like the look, reminds me of a dissy build, even though it's not running a true front sight post.

    Nice overall build. Congrats...

    BTW: How much invested, if you don't mind sharing? In case someone else wanted to build something similar?

    Although the EAGLE may soar proudly through the skies, it is very rare for the Weasel to be sucked into a jet engine.

    Cool

    Thanks for the reply on your build.

    Bobert...no hate just my opinion, dial it down not everything is with malicious intent!

    Thanks for the kind words. She shoots like a dream. I tried some cheaper mags bc they were on sale and my gun hated them. Once I only loaded a handful of rounds into the mag, everything cycled fine. The battlecomp turned a couple of heads in the indoor range, but it wasn't terrible. As far as overall cost....I spent around 2100-2200 on parts and assembled it myself. I have someone who is very good to me on pricing and I am loyal to him for buying most of my parts. If I had paid full cost for everything, I would have spent 2500-2600 just on parts.

    No problem. We all have our opinion and I did a couple of things out of preference (quick pin and trigger), others based on a blend of functionality and cosmetics. I spent a lot of time reading threads on multiple forums and asked a lot of questions before I started this build.

    If you are happy with it and it suits your needs then drive on. My only concern was about unneeded additions that on the whole serve no purpose. Cheers
