Finished product

I finally finished my build off completely. The last pieces were the irons and flash hider. Im going to shoot it with just irons for a while until I decide on optic. I think ill eventually put a magnified scope with a QD mount so I can easily go back and forth between optic and irons. Still debating on some sort of foregrip or hand stop. As well as sling.
Anyhow it shoots amazing... feels very solid, but is nice and light. Suggestions or comments welcomed

Nice, Very Nice!...

A laundry list of parts & spec's would be nice. That's what AR aficionados are into, including me!

Thanks for posting...

Looks great, especially the (free floated ?) handguard.

Looks like you did a great job with quality parts.

Nice set up!

I've got that same hand guard on my BCM. It is really nice. I just put mine on a SW lower for now. Gonna buy myself some MBUS sights and break it in soon. You chose quality parts on that build and have a sweet rifle. Good work. Let us know how she shoots. I don't have any experience with a mid length gas system but supposedly they shoot really well.

Man... thanks for all the compliments, I really appreciate it. It was a lot of fun to build. It shoots amazing.Seems very solid .Ive only had a chance to shoot it indoors at 25 yards. The weather has been awful for outdoor shooting. But Ive gotten pretty good results with my irons at 25 yards. Cant wait to reach out a bit and see what she can do.
