This is my 2nd AR15. My first was a Rock River Arms. I learned a lot from it, and had a lot of money and accessories wrapped up into it but ended up selling it. I used the cash to buy an expensive TREK bicycle. I made the decision I needed to get into better shape.
I dropped a bunch of weight, went from a 38 to a 34. All from bicycling and weight lifting, and eating 5 times a day.
After doing all that and being able to pay off some bills, I decided to reward myself by building my next AR.
So awhile back I purchased a Spikes Tactical stripped lower from INGO advertiser AGS Armament & Consulting. And I had INGO advertiser Bradis to do the transfer for me.
I was then able to snag a Spikes Enhanced LPK from JOEBOBOUTFITTERS.com, along with some other items.
And after working over time, selling items, mowing a crap load of yards, I finally was able to order an upper. And after seeking some advice from a couple INGO members that I respect, order the upper. A 16" midlength BCM with a 12" Larue handguard.
I had some problems with putting the lower together, DAMN detent!, and figuring out how to install the BCM BCG, but I was able to do it!
It's not finished yet, but I finally have it ready to shoot this week.
BCM midlength upper.
Spikes spidey lower.
12" Larue handguard.
Troy/Larue front & rear folding BUIS.
Magpul MOE+ grip
Magpul CTR stock
Larue Index Clips.
I really like the low profile of the Larue Index Clips. They kinda have a slick feeling to them, but they are slim enough to get a good grip, like ladder rails. They're very firm and tuff.
They come in these tin cans..
My plan for the AR is to shoot it as is. I suck with iron sights, so I plan on getting a lot better before I buy an Aimpoint RDS.
I plan on getting a VTAC Wide sling and a Surefire flashlight for it as well.
