    This is the start of my 1st build!

    Started off with: CMMG stripped lower, Spikes lower parts kit less trigger group, Spikes enhanced trigger guard, CMC Trigger, Command Arms interchangeable grip. Was given a Colt magazine.

    After... Trying to locate an A2 buffer tube so I can finish it off with a PRS stock. With a little help from AR15.com and youtube, okay a ton of guidance by way of a walk-through, It was a smooth process with NO LOST PARTS or scratches!

    :yesway: Congrats!!!

    Thanks!

    Instead of using a "wood block" for the trigger guard roll pin, I found it fitting to use this. My grandfather made it for me when I was a kid, he was a vet, and master tinkerer. I thought it to be appropriate to use the bottom of the tool box he made me for my first rifle build!

    Congrats. What do you think of the CAA grip? I like mine.

    Granted I haven't shot it, but really like the versatility in grip options. As it sits I've got it really comfortable (for me) after trying/swapping inserts. Will reevaluate once build is complete and shooting...


    Be careful! You'll want to build another as soon as this one's done!

    lol, I already have my next two in mind. A carbine, followed by a .308. Unless my wife wants her own in the mean time! :ar15:

    And it's done!

    In addition to stated above, Spikes upper and BCG, DPMS 1x9 cromoly barrel, low profile gas block, MI Handguard, Magpul ACS-L stock, angled foregrip, GEN 2 MBUS, and an EOTech 512 to top it off. Pic not the greatest, but it's nasty out and couldn't wait to take a proper picture...lol :D

    Oh no, you've been infected by the "If I build it I must shoot it bug".

    It is not fatal, but much like other infections it can be expensive.

    Have fun and be safe.
