SDDuc996 - Hah! I'd move to a free state if I could but I'm tied down with work for now. One day I'll move back to a state that trusts me to have a real evil black rifle

- 12" rail seems like the way to go based upon the advice I keep getting on this build.

- I will be doing the build myself. I'm an engineer by trade so I should be able to figure it out but expect about 1000000000 questions throughout the build. I will definitely post lots of pictures though so that should make up for the questions.

- Thanks for the info and, considering your current location, for protecting my few remaining rights. Keep your head on a swivel!


Gator - For the stock I can go as short as I want as far as I know. I think the law is similar to the rest of the country (min 16" barrel and 26" OAL) but I have to double check.

These are my current barrel choices:

BCM Std Barrel

BCM Cold Hammer Forged

BCM 1:8 SS410 Barrel (same price as CHF barrel.. heavier?)

Only concern with the DD barrel is the PK site says midlength but the DD site says m4 profile (carbine gas system?)...
