AR Build: PSA/BCM

[Infidel4life11]

Well kind of I ordered the part and put it together.

Customer wanted a good rifle with a low price.

Full PSA Lower, PSA Bolt, magpul grip and stock




BCM upper 16" mid-length, Redfield Counterstrike

That will be a solid rifle. Which forend will it have?

 

[Infidel4life11]

It's going to wear a FDE MOE for the time being.

very nice -- good choice on the components. I don't know anything about that optic though.

My thoughts as well. That's a very solid rifle, but it needs an Aimpoint.

That's a nice list of parts. He should be real happy with that combination. I'm not sure of the optic, but at least he has a nice rifle and can upgrade the optic later if he likes it.

nice stick. add some quality mags, a ton of ammo, and a sling.

Get some lube on that BCG! hehe

Looks like you chose well -- a very nice group of parts. Are you going to post a range report?

Agreed!

RE: Stick to quality mags. I'd like to suggest (in case anybody who reads this doesn't already know what mags they like)

Magpul PMAG (anything but straight wall 20's)
Lancer L5 AWM
Legit USGI, especially NHMTG, and especially with magpul followers for the 30's (and especially NHMTG 20's)

And also agreed on lubing the bolt/carrier. It's so dry I almost can't stand to look at it, even if it's not being fired yet,k it just sees 'wrong'

 

[Outlaw Man]

Nice work. I agree an Aimpoint would be nice, but you hinted the buyer had a relatively tight budget. That Redfield should serve well for the time being.

It's not like that's the only thing that will be swapped out on that rifle over the course of its life!

If you don't mind me asking what did the customer pay for that without the optic.

 

[Infidel4life11]

The Redfield has been great. 5" groups at 300yds with a new to AR shooter. G.barnes I had less than $900 into this gun and thats what the guy paid for it.
