On the BCM charging handle, you can save a few bucks by orders from the nice people at Primary Arms...

edited to ad: Ooooh or maybe not, wasn't thinking of shipping. Sorry.

I ordered my Upper and LPK on Monday, just waiting for them to build it and ship it! Can't wait.

Nice! I ordered the same upper minus the troy on Thursday. Waiting for the upper is like waiting on your dros. Still haven't received the second e-mail yet! We gotta be patient. Good buy my brotha!

Don't forget to post pics. Glad to be a help.

I suggest you also purchase a Magpul B.A.D. lever and trigger guard. If you have the money to spare, buy a troy ambi-magazine release button

I will look into those, thanks!

Another question, do I need any specialty tools? I know a hammer and punch are needed along with screwdrivers and such.

I didn't notice anyone mention this but you're probably gonna need a castle nut wrench to be able to tighten down the castle nut when you install your buffer tube onto your lower.

Thanks, added to my list.

You could also get one of those AR-15 wrenches. I got one for my build and it was immensely useful.

Why would he need a castle nut wrench? the stock he listed is the ACE lite. Doesn't this stock use the buffer tube similar to the RRA entry stock?

[toyotaguy]

Everything has now been ordered and is on the way, will update with pics as stuff arrives.

[toyotaguy]

And the MOST important item, that makes this build all possible

Looks good! You can get a magpul MOE handguard on the super cheap, or if you are into the quad rail look and you want something REALLy cheap go UTG.

You lost me at "featureless". Just kidding, to each their own. Looks good so far.
