Finished a build over the weekend. Was too lazy to take it out for a proper shoot with the SLR so it was shot on my office floor with the iPhone.
Took me about 2 months to gather up all the parts. All parts are brand new except the KNS pins that I had laying around. The parts list includes shipping and tax.
It's been a busy schedule with work and family so not sure when I'll have time to take it out for zero'ing. Maybe in the next couple weeks. Overall, it was a fun build. Didn't run into any major issues, just little minor ones. Let me know what you think. Enjoy.

I had a very hard time installing the forward assist this time around. The roll pin that came with the BCM forward assist could not squeeze into the hole for the life of me. I butchered the roll pin and awaiting a new one.
While I was building the AR I went ahead and started converting the Saiga Sporter. Trigger group assembly and bullet guide are done. Next are the handguards retainers and gas tube if I can find one online. Still not sure if I want to go with wood or polymer furniture. At this point I can't really afford anything for a while.
