AR pistol build

Postby forcefed on Tue Mar 12, 2013 8:49 pm

This is my first AR pistol build. Can't wait to shoot this little thing!

Anderson Manufacturing upper and lower
PSA LPK
11.5" light contour barrel
PWS pistol buffer kit (this thing is awesome)
BCM charging handle
Centurion C4 10" rail
DD fixed sights

It also has herpes, I mean an STD... I mean... (courtesy of FJ540 :twisted: )

Anyway, like I said can't wait to shoot this thing! Sorry for the poopy cell phone pics.

Looks great! Could you maybe explain why the PWS is so much better than others? I have been planning on a pistol build that would eventually be an SBR and have been looking at those tubes but have a hard time justifying the price. Phase 5 tactical has pistol tubes for $50 or so.
If you want a guarantee, buy a toaster.

I got a good deal on it, which is part of the reason I got it. I haven't fondled a lot of pistol buffer tubes, but this one seems to put together pretty well. The built in QD sling mounts on the back are nice. Granted it is just a buffer tube and any of the pistol ones would work fine I am sure.

Get the lead out already. Sheesh. I just loaded 70 more rounds last night.

Would've been more, but I had to locate and retrieve my .223 decapping pin (again). :x Weighing 300 individual rounds is kinda tedious.
