The aero precision lower I'm using. Had this in my safe for a few years now.

First AR15 pistol build.

Postby PHATSPEED7x on Thu Sep 08, 2016 10:49 am

Ordered a PSA lower parts kit with a MOE grip minus trigger assembly for $40, and a ALG defense QMS trigger for $45.

Just need the pistol buffer tube and a charging handle and I'll have all the parts I need for a functional gun.

Mirror to mine - you'll be happy with that setup with the right load.
Nothing to see here. Continue swimming.

Primary arms has Anderson manufacturing complete lower ar15 parts kits for only $39.99. I ordered one of them up too. Will use that to build another ar15 in the near future here.

I've had great success with the bcm handle. Plus it's a little better price point.

Yeah it is not cheap. Being left eye dominant and having a left handed wife I've been forced to shell out for ambi charging handles which all cost about the same.

I'm left handed as well. I just train with all right handed firearms. Because if I were to just grab a random weapon system during a shtf situation I'd be a to run it.

What are you waiting for. Build it while you can. I enjoy the hell out of my 12.5 inch barreled 308.
