I haven't had an AR in my collection for quite a while, but had been considering building another one, this time in 7.26x39. I really like that round, and it seems like it would be a good match with an iron sight AR. With the most recent sales at BCA, I just couldn't resist and I pulled the trigger on an 16" upper.
I really wanted one with a pinned A2 sight base because I plan to use it with a carry handle rear sight, but those have been out of stock forever. I will just use a basic rail mount front sight, and if it bugs me I can just sell the M-lok forend and put an A2 sight on it at some point down the road.
I will pick up a lower at the LGS sometime over the next few days, and should have most of the other bits and pieces in the spare parts bin to put the lower together other than the buffer and buttstock. I'll call around to see if one of the local shops has something kicking around they will part with for cheap.
I need to pick up a couple of 10 round and 20 round magazines. I am guessing that the magazine can make or break proper feeding for the alternate cartridge in an AR. Any recommendations of magazines that work well, or ones to avoid?
