Nice setup! I have been wanting to put a scope on my AR for a while now. I like the Glock mag too!

Very nice! Take it to the range yet?

Also, I'm about 90% done with my own AR build, did you do anything resembling a final check of sorts before you took it to the range (if you have already)?

Looks good, my BM is the same 05 vintage. It was been a fantastic rifle, it has some YHM and Vltor items added. It eats any ammo I feed it, mostly LC surplus M193, it likes the 62gr LC M855 penetrator real well.

I'm confused??? How did you finish your second AR?

It's a nice rifle with some nice accesories.

Hahaha! An AR-15 finished?! I don't think that's even possible. Sure you're happy with it today, but what about a year from now?

It's a good looking rifle though!

Ah, the Trijicon TA11 my favorite optic for AR-15's
They make shooting at 400 yards feel like cheating don't they.

Nice set up, what kind of light is that?

Thanks guys, sorry for the late reply.

I honestly cant remember what brand the light it, but it is a light/laser combo I bought when I was in Afghanistan. I didnt like the PEQ and ended up swapping it out with that. I also had the same foregrip on it too.

I havent taken it to the range yet becuase the only range around here is closed during certain hunts.

This rifle is about as far as it will go as far as accessories. This was my rig during two combat deployments and the only thing I could imagine adding are BUIS, which I dont think will fit becuase of the scope.

Its nice, and I prefer the semi circle/dot sight over the chevron. Excellent scope.
