I don't particularly like nor dislike AR-15's. I haven't owned one in years, but I found a Spikes Tactical "Snowflake" AR lower. The lower made me laugh.
I accumulated parts, dusted off the build tools:
- DPMS lower parts kit
- ALG QCT AR-15 Trigger
- BCM MOD 0 Grip
- Damage Industries Enhanced Mil-Spec Receiver Extension Kit with Chrome Silicone buffer spring & QD End-plate.
- H-Buffer
- Aero Precision Upper Receiver
- 16" Colt Competition 1:8, 4140, Nitrided, SOCOM profile carbine gas length barrel
- YHM low-pro gas block
- Carbine length gas tube from my parts bin
- BCM Compensator MOD 1
- BCM KMR13 Free Float Hand-guard
- MAGPUL MBUS front/rear backup sights
- Fail Zero Ni-BX lightweight BCG
- Sig Romeo 4 dot
Not bad for a range-fun rifle if I do say so myself.
