Decided to pop my cherry and build my first AR.
Here's what I've got so far. JD lower (made in San Diego) PSA Gen 2 Lower build kit California Required Bullet Button For better or worse I Frog Lubed all parts before assembly. I started the trigger polish, but really need to work on that. It feels relatively short, but gravely. What's on it's way Vltor E mod Stock Troy rear folding sight What's planned PSA Dissapator upper http://i794.photobucket.com/albums/yy230/325racer/IMG_20120501_203025.jpg |

Just performed the DIY trigger job. WOW, huge difference. I didn't have a knife stone, but used some old Hobby sand paper. Started with 3600 grit, coulda used a 2000 for some quicker cutting. Moved to 3600 then followed up with 6000. When I was done I found that the center of the machined areas was a little lower and couldn't quite cut the center areas. However, when I was done the contact points were a very nice mirror finish.
I didn't do the Set Screw limiter although the total pull on the trigger is only .05 or 1/20 of an inch. Trigger pull is much smoother and graveliness is gone. Glad I put it together to feel it first, I wouldn't have appreciated the difference if I had just polished it first. Still has a nice crisp solid break, so I'm pretty happy, now to make my P220 feel this good! Kinda hard to see, but nice and shiny compared to the machined http://i794.photobucket.com/albums/yy230/325racer/Mobile%20Uploads/2012-05-02_15-46-19_762.jpg |
