So i have been thinking about owning a firearm since I cant remember when and I finally was able to justify it in my head to go forward with building my very first Ar. I recently decided I wanted to do some pro 2a art pieces as well as incorporating firearms into some other work I am doing. This is what helped me justify the financial aspect of ownership. So right off the bat my instinct tells me i need to have the strongest most durable product when i am dealing with a tool that could potentially be a threat to myself if something was to fail. Having been a pyrotechnic hobbyist you learn quickly to stay away from the lower quality stuff( its just not worth the consequences and it further gives the uneducated masses reasons to stop other hobbyists from enjoying their passions.) Then my creative side kicks in and i want it to look like the meanest sexiest functioning tool you could fathom ...Obviously this just wont work for a poor fella with limited knowledge. So im trying to to do my best and still keep it original, clean, and very functional but i am sort of hung up on the rails/barrel/suppressor aspect. I was hoping to get some advice or maybe get steered in a certain direction or be warned not to go in another direction in regards to the upper front end assembly basically. ill go ahead and list my whole build and then some ideas i was throwing around and hopefully i can get some feedback.
Upper Receiver: mega arms billet
BCG: spikes nib
charging handle: mega
Barrel: lilja 16" m4 patrolman 8 twist 223 wylde
flash suppressor: spikes st dynacomp extreme 556
lower receiver:black rain ordnance billet ..ordering seekins when back in stock... think i want a noveske chainsaw to...[crazy]
lpk: JP
trigger: spikes battle trigger nib
grip: magpul moe+
stock: magpul acs l also plan on gettin the ergo f93
So thats what I have so far and its coming along slowly. Originally i had wanted to have the noveske pig on the end of the barrel with a seekins mcsr and i read that that was absolutely not a good choice and so my vision was crushed. I am not for the idea of paying someone 200 bucks to make me wait 6 months for them to say ok you can have it now.. so a silencer is out of the question until the addiction gets worse. The idea from what i gather would not have worked on the 16" barrel anyhow now looking back so now I am throwing around the idea of a troy claymore pinned to a 14.5 inch barrel with the mcsr 15" rail system, this way the rail overlaps the suppressor giving a tiered effect, just not as nice as a silencer. Essentially I am going for the same look however the troy is quite a bit skinnier than the pig.. Looks wise i think it sounds great but function wise im not so sure it is an optimal setup as i have no clue really. I was hoping to get some feedback on that shorter barrel pinned suppressor idea and if it is really worth the trouble and look or if there is other options to go ahead with. I also wouldnt mind finding a spikes warthog suppressor but again it most likely would not be a optimal setup i am going to assume, as its not much different than the pig. Im hoping to get some help with the barrel rail setup and which route i should maybe go. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
