    AR Pistol BuildThread

    First of all, i am prepared with my suit so feel free to post personal opinions


    I guess i would call the build officially started. I have been wanting to build a pistol even before building my first AR. The first rifle weighs in at 10.4 lbs, the second is an even 6 lbs, and the pistol i will be hoping to get between 3-4 lbs. This will mainly be for .22lr indoor range shooting and/or short range target shooting at the local tin can range. This will also be the end result of my first attempt at home anodizing. Therefore, this will be more of a show piece than a tactical go-to gun. If i drop it in the woods, it might actually be found.

    Parts List:
    80% Lower - 99
    PWS Buffer Tube Assembly - 100
    Stripped upper - $65
    HP Armory 7' free-float hand guard - 120
    Magpul AFG2 - 30
    Phase 5 Tactical Extended Bolt Release for side-charged upper - 50
    Phase 5 Tactical Muzzle Brake - 60
    Phase 5 Tactical Ambi Battle latch - 80

    GSE 6.5" barrel w/ low profile gas block and pistol gas tube - 200 - Backordered 6 weeks
    JD Machine Non-anodized Stripped Upper - TBD - Big things to CIV Tactical!
    LPK w/ RRA 2-stage trigger - 120
    Anti-walk pins - 30


    Other Costs:
    Anodizing Dyes - 80
    80% Jig - 100
    Buckets
    Dying Pot
    Power Supply
    Aluminum Anode
    Acid Bath

            Good luck with the home anodize, I look forward to seeing how your color choice turns out.
