How's it going guys. Just got my 1st AR a few weeks ago and looking to add a few things. Just like to see some opinions of what works.
Gun is an Armalite m15 flattop with no sights with a m4 style 6 postion stock thats pinned. Main use will be target plinking.
Parts I'm looking to add:
Front and rear folding sights
Ace skeleton stock
Angled foregrip
Vortex strike fire red dot
Railed forend
Sights and forfend I'm not sure what to get so any suggestions would be helpful. Anyone have pics of similar setups I'd love to see them.

Is there a reason you're wanting to add these accessories on a plinker? Genuinely curious. I wouldn't see a reason to add all that gear for a range toy. Have you been able to try out this gear previously to determine that you already like the add-ons?

If you're going to add accessories, I suggest you visit the LaRue Tactical web site.

They're an A+ company with exceptional customer service.

Almost everything you need they will have.

The only part that I've used was the Ace stock on a friends gun. What would a good setup be?

I like Troy Battlesights, but they might be overkill for a plinker. Look into the Magpul MBUS for flip up sights. They are economical & work well for most folks. Midwest Industries or Troy offer a good amount of economical & practical rails. If all you're wanting to add is an AFG then you can try the Magpul MOE fore end & install a bottom rail to accommodate it. Shooters seem to love or hate the AFG. They are cheap enough that if you don't like it you can flip one for minimal loss & try something else. Have you looked into a decent sling yet?

If you go with the freefloat style tube and don't want to spend a ton of $$, Yankee Hill Machine has lots of options.  Primary Arms is a good place to start, really good prices, fast shipping.

I was looking at the MBUS sights but read that the front could melt? I have not looked at slings yet, what's good?
Thanks for the different places to find parts fellas.
