Zed's_Dead 16 Posted March 9, 2011 Ok...all I have for my first rifle is a factory S&W M&P 15 with a truglo red dot sight. It looks so plain next to some of the guns here! I would upoad a picture, but the site I used to use to host pics is no longer working. In any event, went to the range with it for the first time today and zeroed it. What a blast to shoot!

papercutninja 24 Posted March 12, 2011 This is my first AR, and the first gun i've purchased. It took me just over an hour to take it from a parts kit with completed upper to a complete function-checked AR-15, timed it so i could see how long it took. The only mishap was that the infamous pivot pin detent launched itself into the great unknown in my living room; a couple of spares are on order from Midway. I don't plan on shooting the rifle until i get that in place. I had bought a used Crane stock from another forum i frequent; the guy is an active-duty USMC and had brought the stock back from the Sandbox. Overall, i'm HUGELY satisfied with building my own AR-15. Parts list is below the pictures for anyone who is interested. 14.5" High-Standard chrome lined 1/7 gov't profile barrel, carbine length Battlecomp 1.5 black oxide, permanently pinned/welded A2 front sight block, bayonet lug removed A3 (Anchor Harvey, according to the forge marks) upper, M4 feedramps RRA Chrome lined bolt carrier group KAC RAS (Carbine length) McKay Enterprises RM16A2 forged lower, 5.56 cal marked M&A Parts Mil-spec LPK Magpul AFG2 Magpul Enhanced Trigger Guard Magpul MOE grip Magpul ASAP sling plate Mil-spec buffer tube, carbine buffer Crane stock (G1, non-LMT), pinned at position 1 Primary Arms M3 clone Red Dot sight, non-cantilevered mount A.R.M.S #71LR polymer rear backup iron sight Surefire M961 WeaponLight MidwestPX/Magpul PMAG 15/30 NJ legal (ordered, as part of the group buy) NJ-Legalisation (permanent attachment of muzzle device, bayonet lug removal, stock pinning) done by Arms-N-Ammo, Waterford Works, NJ.

Maksim 1,504 Posted March 12, 2011 Another upper. quite light too, 6.5 lbs with empty mag. The stainless upper puts it at 10 lbs. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stag223 1 Posted March 14, 2011 I love this thread. Seeing mags I made in so many places just makes me all warm 'n fuzzy You are probably going to see a few more. I really had no idea where I would go about finding these untill I joined and looked through this thread. I just have to find out how many a few friends want and whether they want the 15 rounders fixed in the 20 or 30 rd body. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Soju 153 Posted March 20, 2011 Nice, and I like that you pinned the stock at a more useful length! Thanks! I thought so. Unless you do nothing but shoot from a bench, or are tiny, I don't understand the 2 extremes. This allows me to shoot comfortably standing, and when I was shooting off of bags to sight her in, had no problems either. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
