Handguard: DD Lite 9.0 (not the Omega – I want my free floating hand guard in one pc, not two.)
Reason: Lite and durable
Sights: Any well machined flip up…
Reason: I’m with Stickman on this one – optics may change per shooter and task.
Optic: Trijicon ACOG
Reason: A. I love the one I have B. What bigcoastie said hits nuts on.
Grip: Magpul MIAD
Reason: Comfort, adjustability and durability
Stock: Magpul UBR
Reason: That stock if SOLID.
Barrel including length: Sabre Defense/ Shilen / Lothar Walter 18” SPR
Reason: Extended range/capabilities and still quick enough to use in tight quarters.
LPK/Trigger: JP Fire Control System 4-4.5 #’s
Reason: JP’s are well made and if we’re gonna beat the hell outta this thing I wouldn’t want a modular or a “drop in” trigger group. If something breaks in the field I can fix it if I’ve brought backup.
Buffer: As per the buffer…Open, but probably on the heavier side/ As per the spring…def CS spring.
Reason: CS springs are duty rated for 500,000 compression cycles at maximum performance.
BCG: Fail Zero w/ exo coat
Reason: 50,000 lube-free rounds on AR-15’s.
Upper Rec: Vltor Mur
Reason: I’m a fan of milled parts and Vltor has slightly thicker walls.
Lower Rec: Either Tactical Innovations T15 BDX or POF 415 G3
Reason: Milled and Ext. finger flares
Magazine: Magpul
Reason: If I can drive over it and it still functions…nuff said.
Lights/lasers/etc: Debatable
Reason: I don’t like too much stuff hangin off my weapon…just more weight and more stuff to break.
Charging Handle: Open w/ bias: milled w/ Tac Latch G2
Reason: Note: I would be prone to go with a PRI Gas Buster IF we’re suppressed or short barreled if not…I don’t believe it makes a difference.
Flash Hider/Comp: Tromix Shark Break
Reason: When I stick it in your leg and twist…you’ll squeal and then tell me what I want to hear.
Misc Stuff rail covers etc: DD Ladders
Reason: Comfort
Gas Piston System: Yes or No: Yes – Adams Arms
Reason: A. I wanna see how durable they really are. This is a test right? B. I believe…I am not sure, that they are easier to work on in the field. C. LWRC is over priced. D. TNW is still relatively new.

quick question stick...
will the aac spr mount install w/out any problems on a lightweight barrel? i know that the mount covers up a small portion of the barrel and i didnt know if it would cause a problem because of the smaller barrel profile.
thanks

Stick, after going back and browsing all the pages in the thread, I have failed to put together a defined list of what ended up in the built rifle. I know you said you would not publish a "list", but maybe it would be a good idea to post at least something in the first post of the thread as a quick reference? Otherwise, I would appreciate a list PMed to me just to satisfy my own curiosities. :) Thanks! Looks good!

I think thats a good idea. I need to gather up a final item listing, and come up with the whats and whys. Not everything will be perfect for everyone, and I'm more than willing to admit that not everything is perfect in my own eyes. What I do think we ended up with is a highly effective, and well laid out carbine. The next part will be seeing how well it stands up to a beating.

I am sorry stick, some times I post a reply on something I read on page 1 when a thread is 9 deep my bad, I was quoting page 4 post 49 I believe. about the charging handle. You said you were not familiar with the company who supposedly made that charging handle. I was just saying that Larue Markets an Identical charging handle to the one pictured. That was all, again I apoligize.
