I had to quit kidding myself. I'm a liar if I say I didnt buy the sig brace with intentions to shoulder it. Why have a non adjustable stock. I paid 190 for the brace and phase5 kit...I'll pay $200 for a stamp to SBR it

Think I've finally got this all worked out in my head. Trust gets notarized next week, form 1 gets filed that day most likely. I'll sell my sig brace and hex2 and have the money for a stock and the barrel.
When I finally get a 9" rail I'm thinking this upper is gonna be outfitted with a 10.5" Faxon nitrided barrel, and a VG6 epsilon. I'm still on the fence about the 10.5" vs 11.5" barrel though.

10.5" barrel is my vote.

I have handled quite a few MAS Defense barrels and they all looked great. I owned their 10.5" 1:8 .223 Wylde barrel and loved it. My next will be the same barrel in stainless.

I didn't expect much at the price I got it. It was overstock or blem, I forget, but I know it was under $100, and when I got it, it was perfect. And it was the most accurate barrel I've owned in 5.56.

They are $109 now. Not too shabby, and I've heard great reviews. And the whole idea behind this build was budget friendly, than I had to go and add another $200 to the equation.
I'm thinking all black, Ti forward assist, NIB BCG, alg trigger, stainless barrel and stainless epsilon.

Form 1 eFiled today, 12/26. The wait begins.
Sold my sig brace and phase 5 tube. Now need to pick up the stock, trigger, barrel and muzzle device.

More updates. As a nice gesture, a member here and his wife offered to pick up my MFT stock for me if I promised to forego the ALG trigger in favor of a CMC... So looks like I'll be getting a cmc.
Upon the advise of UW to start with a H buffer. I'm gonna pick up a H2. If my gun prefers the h2, then I will leave it, if it's too much, I'll take the h2 and my spare carbine buffer apart and make 2 H buffers.
Then I'll need a barrel and muzzle device, and the gun will be ready to fire. Will likely get a red dot for my birthday.

I can say this... Don't get the ALG SCB... Unless you LOVE fireballs. The brake works great, but the flash is a little crazy on my 11.5. I will probably install it onto one of my other rifles.
