Ok... After doing enough research to really piss off my girlfriend, I have come up with an idea for my first AR build. I want a Rifle for accuracy but durability/reliability is very important also. I’m a newb to accuracy shooting and just plan to do it for fun. No competitions. I want the rifle to be ready for SHTF/Zombie Aliens/Apocalypse (sarcasm) as well since this will be my only rifle for a while. So a good combo of the two uses is optimal.
Here is a list of parts I’m thinking about. Any suggestions, advice, or recommended manufacturers will be much appreciated. I have put many of my questions in this thread to avoid multiple posts.
Barrel: BCM vs. Sabre Defense vs. Daniel Defense--- 20 inch, 1/7 twist, chrome lined. I have not done enough research on the different profiles and will probably do a new thread on the subject. Govt profile???
-Upper Receiver: Vltor MUR w/ Bolt assist--- I have read great things about this upper. Worth the money?
-BCG: Spikes Nickel Boron vs. BCM--- nickel boron worth the extra $?
-Butt stock/receiver extension kit: Vltor iMOD clubfoot Mil Spec (already purchased)
-Lower Receiver: Spikes Tactical--- From what I understand is built from LAR. And there is not much difference in lowers.
-LPK/Trigger: Spikes Battle Trigger vs. Geissele 2stage--- I still cannot decide on the trigger. 2stagers are always going to be less durable than a single. But I have heard good things about Geissele’s durability. I am looking for good longevity in these parts.
I am unsure at this time about BUIS (flip up), Hand guards, low profile gas block, and charging handles. Any direction would be great on these items. Especially BUIS and Hand guards.
Thanks for your time.
