Well done, I like the black and earth combo. I can't wait to get my first AR.

Then we don't know if you mucked up that build or not yet


Course you had a pre-assembled upper, which takes half the fun out of it

It is possible that I screwed up the build, but I think I am fine because I did function checks on it.

Nice looking AR you have built.

A friend of mine did an AR build and we shot it at my local range a few weeks back.... after months and months of waiting on this and that to arrive..... in the end, it sucked for accuracy. I blame it on his poor choice in optics.

I used to own a TA01NSN, but I sent it to my friend in Iraq while he was on tour. When he got back he bought me this TA31F.

I have to say I like the TA31F much better. The fiberoptics are a nice touch.

I've never used the compact ACOG's though. They look appealing, but the price tag for a 2x optic just makes me look towards an Aimpoint instead. What's your take on that? ie. Which would you prefer if price was a consideration?
