New build complete

Here is my latest build. Didnt go super high dollar, or ultra cheap. Just a mid priced build. Will mostly be a paper and steel target gun, but may get a light mount, and be a home protection gun as well... what do ya think??

The hand guard was almost 200$ well worth it though...very high quality, and rock solid

Nice job--looks very up to the task--now let's see some target pics!

Do you really like those magpul angled forward grips? I bought several of them years ago tried as hard as I could to like them--but eventually found them to be more "ninja fluff" than a real benefit and ditched them--but maybe I just never learned proper use of their strong points.

Dont know about the angled foregrip yet. I will admit i put it on cuz i thought it looked cool. However if it does nothing for my shooting i will ditch it in a heartbeat

Put 200 rounds through it, and it was flawless. Red dot was spot on right out of the box. I was limited to 80 feet, indoor range, but it was surgical accurate even with the milspec trigger. Just an fyi. I really do like the angled foregrip. Think ill keep it. This rifle gonna pull some home defence detail, and when i keep the length of pull short, the foregrip is really handy. Thanks for the compliments

I was at the range with my son and he said, "dad, can I shoot the Punisher"? Had to stop and think about it for a second and then started laughing.

I said yes, you can shoot the Punisher. That's now it's official name whenever we're talking about it.

Looks good, have fun shooting yours.
