Hey guys, pretty new to AR's.  Finished my first build (all PSA 16" Carbine) a couple months ago and am starting my second build now.  So how does the following sound for a second build.  Still waiting on parts so no pics yet.

Lower:
Aero Precision stripped lower
PSA MOE lower parts kit without trigger
ALG QMS trigger
PSA mil spec buffer tube kit with standard M4 stock

Upper:
PSA 16" CMV Mid Length upper with Midwest Industries SS G2 12" free float hand guard
BCM BCG
Standard charging handle
Magpul MBUS sights

I will eventually swap the M4 stock for B5 Sopmod Bravo stock and probably pick up a Micro Dot from Primary arms.  Have to build the funds back up first.

Sounds good to me.

Sounds good but I'd change to a Gunfighter charging handle, and maybe look into the Magpul ACS stock. Just my two cents

+1 on the CH, in this day and age there's no reason not to be using some kind of aftermarket latch, at least - but the Gunfighter is just AWESOME.

 






I agree with the stock comment as well, not necessarily the ACS as preferences differ more there but yeah, the standard stocks are pretty flimsy with shitty cheekweld in my experience.




ETA but yeah, looks great OP.

I definitely want to upgrade the charging handle.  I also have to upgrade the charging handle on my first build.  I'm a lefty so I'm either going to go with the Rainer Arms Rapter or the BCM ambi gunfighter.  The stock is just temporary.  I got the buffer tube kit from PSA on the daily deal for $39 and it comes with the M4 stock.  I have the B5 Sopmod Bravo on my other rifle and will probably get another one for this build.  Just have to save up some more cash.
