Hey guys, I've been thinking about doing another AR build for something different. I probably don't need another AR, but with prices this cheap I figure I may as well at least look into it. Problem is, I want something somewhat less popular. I don't care about brand names and would like to do this on the cheap side if possible.
What I currently have is a 16" 5.56 "recce type" build with a full length handguard, a 1-4x optic, and a burnt bronze cerakote job I had done. Next I have a 10.5" SBR 5.56 with a full length handguard, a 1-4x optic and a red dot both on QD mounts that I can swap between. Then I also have a 7.5" 300 Blackout pistol that I've got a Sig Romeo on, Inforce WML, Magpul handstop, and SB3 brace.
So what's what I'm working with so far. As far as adding another caliber to the list, I'd really only be interested in adding a 7.62x39. Right now I'm considering one of the PSA Gen 2 AR-47 models, probably in a pistol variant. So that's one option just because I'm not an AK guy, but I do like shooting the caliber. A second option that I'm considering is a mock-dissipator build with a carry handle. I've just always thought they looked cool. So probably a mid-length faux dissipator. But really those are the only two ideas that I have right now. Anyone else have any other suggestions?
