My First Build -- Updated
Hi folks. I'm a long-time lurker and infrequent poster. I am starting to compile the parts for my first build. I already have one AR (Bushmaster HBAR), so I am looking to build my second based on what I like and don't like about the Bushy.
I would appreciate your thoughts/feedback on my plans. The one thing I am really undecided on is whether to go with a lightweight or gov't profile barrel. Would like to hear your thoughts on the two. Thanks in advance!
8/9/2012 Update
I have finally ordered all the parts and updated the component list. Some parts were ordered more based on availability, otherwise I probably would have more BCM components in the build. Pics will follow once I receive them and put it all together.
