Cigar Asylum Cigar Forum - First Firearm Thread.

This is probably going to be my next build...

RRA forged lower
RRA NM 2 stage trigger
RRA forged flat top upper with Wilson 24" 1:8 twist match grade stainless bull barrel
Harris Bi-Pod on a Larue LT-130 mount
PSG1 grip
Yankee Hill Four Rail Free Float Forearm
Magpul PRS Stock
8-32x56 scope in a Larue LT-104 Mount
A.R.M.S. 40L BUIS
Yankee Hill Gas Block Front Sight

That scope is going to be huge for the rifle

Palmetto State (available online, would be about even to the Stag after FFL fee)
Spikes (4-6 week wait time, bout the same price after fees)

I've read good things about all of them, I'm leaning towards the Stag since it's local-ish, any input?

I'm certainly not an AR guru, but I am very happy with the quality of my PSA stripped lower as well as the upper I bought from them. Don't think you could really go wrong with any of them though.

Right now I have a 6x32 which I find to be good up to the 250-300 yard range with 5.56, with this build I am thinking either 300AAC or 308 so the extra scope should be viable.

Meh, a lot of money for a dot with a circle around it. You already have a front sight post, use that.

:D

You can look through my EOTech next Saturday and see if you think it's worth it.

They are nice for quick target acquisition, not sure what line of work you are in or just for target practice?
