I think that is everything. I love the build and the completion. Nothing better than building it yourself. This is for the newer people wondering how much it would cost to build your own. Obviously parts price will vary based upon an individuals wants. This is also my very first COMPLETE AR build.

NEWEST PICS pics show rifle with not LPK video is of complete testing

Very nice! I am probably gonna try to peice together atleast a lower by the end of this year, but I would love an AR-10 in .308!

Thanks for the info.

That compensator is the same one i've been looking at, be sure to report back about how it works out.

How long ago did you order your LPK? I am waiting on some stuff from them, I'm thinking about ordering it again from elsewhere because its taking so freakin long.

Palmetto lags.

Expect two weeks for them to walk from the computer screen to their warehouse and actually package, put a stamp and address, and walk to the mailbox (metaphorically speaking, of course).

But yeah, I kind of accept it now.
2 weeks to get shipping notice for a LPK that they "say" is in stock ...

I guess it is pretty slow in South Carolina and all ... The heat and watnot ...

Sit a spell and have some sweet tea while I get your little ol' package ...

And people call them stereotypes ...

LOL

[xmulisha101]

My post clearly states pics in a week. Lol aaannyyywayz, I just bought the parts kits yesterday. I may have to find an alternative. How long have you been waiting on palmetto for?

That's what kills me about PSA. The actual shipping time for me to get a package once it's shipped is about 8 days in Norcal. It never fails. Goes through Indiana, by the time it's gets there, it's the weekend, so it sits for a couple days. Then 3 days or so to get to my door. So even when it says they ship out in 5 business days, I know I won't see it for at least 3-4 weeks guaranteed.
That being said I ordered the alg act lower parts kit last week that I expect to get sometime in June. In a big ol box lol.

Nice build! You'll love the Mueller 1-4x scope. Combines the best of both a red dot and magnification.

Funny I just got a tracking notification from PSA for an order shipped last April this morning. Kinda scared me at first glance .,I thought my card was compromised or something. Lol

[duc748bip]

I found out when I build guns.. it always come out been more expensive..

[Evanski9]

lol.. great I'm looking at some dough for mine. Well I heard its the way to go...

[Cedone12]

I'm on my first build now and it's around the came cost as OP, except I'm still debating on red dot vs. scope at this time. It seems like double the price over already built standard AR's.

and to think I could be just as effective with a sub 400 dollar C&R bolt gun
