Hi[:D]. Still in the process of completing my parts. So far, this is what I have in my list and lower kit on its way.

ST Biohazard billet complete lower kit

VLTOR MUR with forward assist

ST Bolt carrier group nickel boron

ST BAR rail 10 or 12 inch

And still trying to decide regarding the barrel but Im definitely going either 16 inch midlength with low profile gas block or 16 inch car with the VLTOR front sight gas block assembly. What do you think?

Also been searching on AR15 dimpled barrels but had no luck. Only found one from ADCO but Im kinda looking for a particular one that the dimpling are cross sectional instead of going on a straight line.

Would love you feedbacks and referrals guys. Thanks

I believe that BCM sells dimpled barrels, for instance see here (http://www.bravocompanyusa.com/BCM-16-M4-Barrel-Stripped-p/bcm-brl-s-m4%2016%20std.htm). Another option for the DIY type is to get the Rainier Arms dimple jig (http://www.rainierarms.com/?page=shop/detail&product_id=1089), and do it yourself to another barrel of your choice. I personally prefer Noveske SS barrels if you have the money, or a CHF'd Daniel Defense barrel as a slightly cheaper option.

As for LPGB vs. FSB, I would venture to say it's a personal preference, but cost-wise the LPGB and a front sight can probably be cheaper than the $200+ you're going to spend on the Vltor FSB. I use a LPGB on my rifles at work but I tend to utilize an RCO or Mk 4 CQ/T and like to fold the front sight down when not utilizing the BUIS. Are you planning on mounting an optic? What is the intended use for the rifle?

Found a shop that does AR15 barrel dimpling and it looks just like the one that I was looking for. Link below:

Thanks mamba6. You probably right. LPGB is the way to go. Any particular one that you can recommend? This baby will be more on training and one of the collection.
