204 ruger AR anyone?

I am almost set on building one. I just got a stripped receiver the other day and was hopeing to get some encouraging words about the round.

The plan so far is to get:
Barrel: http://www.midwayusa.com/eproductpag...884&t=11082005

Buttstock: http://www.midwayusa.com/eproductpag...901&t=11082005
or: http://www.midwayusa.com/eproductpag...555&t=11082005

fore end: http://www.midwayusa.com/eproductpag...756&t=11082005


The smaller parts are not as im portant to me with the exception of a good trigger. I like my RRA NM. May just get one of those.

Barring that I have plans for an A2 standard and a 458 socom...

This is my new reciever:




An essential arms (paid way too much, but I won't go into that). I dura coated it in Steyr green. The SAFE was white nail polished. When I get red I will do the FIRE. Overall it seems like a decent receiver. It doesn't have any machine marks on it, but the holes still had burrs. A few dents here and there, all in nonvital spots. Not bad for a $76 receiver.

there are currently some complete guns being sold in 204 Ruger ( local gun hop has one complete )... the guy that runs our local "toy store" claims its the most fun gun / caliber he's shot for a long time...
