image.jpeg Here's my first build:
  • Aero Precision assembled upper
  • Aero Precision stripped lower
  • Ballistic Advantage 17.7" Hanson mid-length performance series barrel
  • Odin Works 223 nitride BCG
  • Seekins Precision NOXs M-LOK 15" Rail
  • Midwest Industries 3-CHAMBER AR Muzzle Brake
  • Magpul MOE® Carbine Stock - FDE
  • Strike Industries ARCH - AR-15 Charging Handle - Extended Latch
  • JBO Lower Receiver Parts Kit WITHOUT Trigger
  • JBO Stainless Steel Gas Tube - Mid Length

Finally finished the build. Don't think I will be doing a 2pt sling on this. Maybe 1 pt. Sarco Inc AR Flat top kit with 16" .223 Wylde US made M4 profile barrel and birdcage flash hider, M4 stock, on Andersen MFG lower. Rear sight is a no-name A2 style unit. Most if not all the parts look brand new/barely used.

300 blackout pistol build for discreet carry in public. The brake is getting ditched for a thread protector on order, the elfman trigger was sitting around and wont work with 45 degree safeties safely so used a bad 90 degree for now. Going with a geisselle ssa-e.

Shilin custom 7.8" 300 blk barrel/block
Elfman ar-15 trigger (for now)

Added a couple large pull tabs to the zippers on the briefcase for easier use. Basically done now.

Very nice first build man!!
 
My Spike's tactical ST-15 build is finally done- I went with an assembled upper receiver group with a mid length gas block and MOE foregrip, a Spike's lower receiver, their lower parts kit, and a Magpul ACS-L stock. Aimsurplus single point sling and ambi end plate coming. Rear sight is a Troy folding unit. I've owned a Colt AR-15 before, but this is my first build- after getting it checked out I'm really looking forward to firing it.

+1 for those Sarco AR kits. I've got a build with one of those too, and it works great! Not the prettiest thing in the world, but it goes bang when it should, and is accurate.
 
Jerderv, I'm jealous! How'd you get it so light?

Did a little tweak to my Ruger SR556 Takedown recently. The Vortex Viper PST 1-4x24 was removed in favor of a Vortex Crossfire II 3-9x50. I needed a bit more magnification for the SR and I'll re-purpose the PST for another build.

Before:

I'll give it a test fire and sight it in tomorrow.
