Hello all, I am new to the forums here. I purchased my first AR a few months back and have decided to do a little customization to it. As it sits now it is a completely stock M&P 15 Sport II.
I am not a fan of the carbine length handguards and i'm looking to change it to a mid-length. I know this requires more than just replacing the handguard so that is where my dilemma comes in.
What brands should I look and and which should I avoid? I am not looking for top of the line parts, this is just a shoot couple times a month gun that ill probably put 3,000 rounds or less through a year.
The parts I know that I will need, let me know if I am missing any parts, that I am looking for brand suggestions are:
Barrel
Handguard
Gas Block
Gas Tube
I plan to keep the rest of the upper stock unless I have to replace more parts due to changing the length of the gas system.
Thanks for the help.
