Hey guys, first off, I'm new to posting here, but not new to AR15.com, I've been following this forum for a few years now and love all the helpful info you guys have.  Secondly, (and I hope I'm putting this in the right section), I thought I'd share the 2 builds I put together on here for some feedback and what not.  
For a little background, I got into AR's a couple years back starting with a Del-Ton stripped lower and parts kit with a complete Del-Ton upper.  More recently, I got started on a .300 AAC BLK build because I loved the concept of the round.  Despite the terrible timing with the current gun restriction craze, I was able to finish a .300 AAC BLK upper, which just needs some Magpul BUIS (in the mail) and glass (any suggestions would be great).  So far I've got about 2k rounds of 5.56/.223 through the upper and lower and 0 through my .300 AAC BLK upper  (although I have 150 rds - dumb ammo craze).  Anyway I'll post the parts list of my frankengun builds and pics below - comments/feedback much appreciated!

Lower:
- Del-Ton Stripped Lower w/ Custom Laser Etching and filled in laser markings
- Del-Ton Lower Parts Kit
- Magpul MIAD Grip
- Magpul ACS-L stock

5.56/.223 Upper:
- Del-Ton Complete 16" M4 Upper
    - Del-Ton BCG
    - YHM Phantom Brake
    - 2 Rail Clamp on Gas Block

    - BCM Gunfighter Charging Handle
    - Vertical Grip
    - YHM Flip Up Front Sight
    - ARMS #40 BUIS Rear Sight

check out primaryarms for glass.  some of their scopes, including their new one get good reviews and are under $200.  I personally have not used their glass, but love the company and its commitment to customers.

Thanks for the suggestions so far.  The MTAC looks real nice, but I think Primary Arms is more ideal here, and I've heard good things about them too all over this forum.  And yea, the fox logo is totally out of place but I love the logo and their stuff lmao.  And I take down some fox here and there with the .223
