    My first build

    I finally got around to finishing my first build over the past few months after completing my lower some time ago. It was a great experience and I will definitely be doing it again. Thanks to ar15barrels for assembling the upper. The lower was very easy to do and surprisingly no detents or springs were lost.
    First range outing was a success. No issues after 160 rounds. The rifle length gas system is so much softer to shoot than the carbine length on my sig. Now I need to take it outdoor to stretch it out and sight the scope and irons properly at 100 yards.
    Parts:
    Elemental Arms billet 7075 80% lower
    MI billet upper
    Nikon M223
    MI 15in SS handguard (very light)
    Tungsten cerakote
    Ice Arms 18in heavy ss barrel 1-8 twist with JP comp
    WMD nib bcg
    BCM charging handle
    Spikes mil buffer
    Thordsen featureless stock
    PSA LPK with ACT trigger

    I like it. It looks " unique" I don't think I've seen a stock like that before. If it were MY rifle, I put a Magpul PRS on it.

      Yeah I'd rather have a bullet button for a precision rifle but it looks cool regardless.

        How do you like shooting with those irons?

                  They were good at 25 yards. Adjusted very well didn't feel odd having the rifle sort of sideways. As for the stock, the look has really grown on me and most importantly, it feels amazingly natural and balanced.
