    New to Forum, 1st AR build

    Hey guys,

    I'm Mike and I'm currently deployed to Afghanistan as a Infantry Officer in the Army. I built up my M1A prior to going home on Mid-Tour leave, and decided to have my M4 all built up prior to coming home for good. Here is what I'm starting with.

    Currently:

    Stag-15 with the following mods done:
    Upper
    MI T-12 Free Float Rail
    MAGPUL Front and Rear MBUS
    MI Low Pro gas block

    Lower
    CAA G-27 Grip (use one over here and love it)
    LMT SOPMOD stock (same as above)
    KAC VFG
    MAGPUL Enhanced Trigger Guard


    I just bought a new Daniel Defense M4 - V5 NS complete upper from Rainier Arms with a pinned and welded PRI QC brake to put on my Stag Lower.

    I have all this other stuff waiting back home to throw on it as well:

    Troy Front BUIS
    Troy Rear BUIS
    BCM Gunfighter Charging Handle
    EOTECH 516 Optic
    MAGPUL BAD
    Tango Down VFG
    Surefire Scout 600 light (w/pressure switch)
    MAGPUL XTM Rail Covers
    Ambi Safety Selector Levers
    Harris Bi-Pod with LaRue QD mount (for when I want to shoot from the prone)


    I WANT to add a Spikes T-2 Buffer, VTAC Sling (I have a Vickers one on my rifle here in country, but I want a VTAC), and a Fail Zero Bolt Kit

    I really can't wait to get home in a few months and put it all together!

    Any input would be great!

    Sounds good so far. The PRI is a great brake. A little loud, but works great.

    Well, Mike, I advise you to buy at least two magazines and some ammo and shoot your gun. You have a lot of hardware, just get out and start playing with it! Don't buy more stuff just for the sake of it.

    Thanks, I look forward to going back home and shooting it. I got plenty of PMAGs from this deployment ( I think last count was 17) and a bunch of regular pre ban USGI ones so I should be good!

    I would be more interested in shooting that fancy M1A of yours! That is a very nice looking rifle....
