What is your next AR build?

[petyweestraw]

I have a .45 ACP upper. Really fun. Not easy to do though, that's for sure.

Touch more on this. Would one in 9mm and glocks mags be possible? That'd be sweet

they make lowers that use glock mags, but you have to have a custom lower since glock mags are too wide to fit a factory mag well.

Lol scratch that I read your answer

All Done

Just need to shoot them.

Holy shit was the damn gas block tight as fuck. I ended up having to use a Daniel Defense gas block to fit inside their rail. Then to add insult to injury, I had to put the rail on first then the gas block. Not normally an issue if your gas block is close to the end but on a mid-length system and 14" rail, that bugger is down there. To make matters even WORSE, the BCM barrel and DD gas block (think fault all lies on the barrel though) did not ant to work together. I ended up having to hone out the inside of the gas block with a 3/4" barrel grinding stone on a drill. Speaking of injury, only an idiot holds his piece with his hands when running a drill through it.

Parts are identical but barrel length, colors and optics.

They are sure pretty!

I unboxed a new Colt today with the FDE Magpul setup. Does that count as a build? It's not much harder or easier.

I just want to go shoot them now.

I am anxious to run the trigger and test out that muzzle break.

Self contained drop in unit. 3.5lb pull. Smooth break with no creep or grit. Made right here in Ft Worth. He had a few assembled lowers designed to test triggers in (no mag well or buffer tube opening etc). The CMC was noticeably better than a POP drop in trigger at a booth down from his.

He had a sweet 2 stage to tryout but didn't have any to sell yet....taking pre orders. The 2 stage was the business. I have his card and may order 1 or 2 also.

I may have to find this guy and check them out... might have to make it my next upgrade (after I break down and buy/upgrade the stock.

[petyweestraw]

I've seen the CMC triggers in person too. They are sweet but pricey.

Buddy just installed the flat CMC trigger.
He loves it.

[KBScobravert]

Love these two. Zero recoil.

[Trick Pony]

I made the mistake of handling a friend's 9" .300 Blackout pistol with a can on it the other day at the range so now I think I need to build one.
It was quiet as hell and very little recoil with 180 gr subsonic loads. He had the Sig pistol brace on it and it shouldered well too.
He also had a See All sight on it, which I had never seen before and it worked pretty well.

No $878 from GrabaGun with Magpul FDE furniture. I've decided a new a few things for the sling setup I want and the optic I want on it then it's good to go. I have plenty of mags, and now I have a Magpul FDE mag for trade or sale. I don't do plastic mags.

[YALE]

I think I want to do a lightweight SBR, and a hunting rifle in 6x45.
