    Using Rit Dye on the VFG to get it how I wanted was a little bit of a pain but it turned out pretty cool I think

    My very first. I mean really, really very first. I've never held an AR until today, much less built one. Took this from stripped receivers and parts to a whole gun in about 2 hours, with a two year old "helping". All detents and springs were installed successfully on the first attempt, the only part that is MIA is my C clip for the dust cover. Yes I am bragging :):
    Aero Precision stripped upper
    Aero Precision stripped lower
    Aero Precision 16" 1 in 7 mid length barrel
    CMMG lower parts kit with ambi-safety
    BCM bolt carrier group
    BCM Gunfighter charging handle
    BCM mod 3 pistol grip
    BCM gas block/tube
    Magpul ACS-L stock
    PSA milspec buffer tube with carbine buffer
    Fortis Rev 12" hand gaurd.
    Still need to pic up some folding sights and an optic

    I'm a little partial to FDE myelf......




    Very nice! I just wish my fde matched a little better, aero, magpul, and BCM all seem to be a shade off each other, and the handgaurd matches the receivers but its glossier than the other parts. Oh well, it will help break up the outline if the shtf and I'm in an desert!
