Its not out of place for some reason

Just getting started on this one! My first AR. Planning on putting an eotech, Harris bipod, FDE quadrail and a new trigger on it. Have yet to decide what trigger to get yet…

Nice rifle!

Jastrzemski223 · March 4, 2019, 7:41pm

@LonewolfMcQuade thanks!

You might consider the ALG Defense ACT trigger. I think the new Magpul bipod is also nice and very lightweight.

Jastrzemski223 · March 4, 2019, 10:01pm

Thanks I’ll have to check it out.

I run Velocity single stage triggers in my AR’s. Great quality for a great price!

Comanchero45 · March 5, 2019, 1:19am

Good choice, the S&W rifles are excellent!
Rock River Arms makes a very reasonably priced 2 stage match trigger that I really like…so there’s another choice for you lol

Yeah my dad has the M&P 10 .308 so I figured if his is good quality I couldn’t go wrong with the .223/5.56 version. Been great so far!

Comanchero45 · March 5, 2019, 3:39am

Absolutely love my M&P15 Tactical.
It’s the best AR I own!

RogueGunnWorks · March 5, 2019, 5:13am

Cannot go wrong with the M&P

Nice rifle, dig the purple blanket too. Whats parts you got in the rifle, @Jastrzemski223?

JF89 · March 8, 2019, 5:13pm

Last time I bought an ALG ACT they were $80. I personally wouldnt spend that much on a coated mil spec trigger when the LaRue MBT can be had for $90-100 regularly. Hell, I prefer the MBT to even the Geiselle. It uses tool steel instead of mim (which is ok) and the trigger feels better, for me. To each their own though.

So far it’s just got the magpul furniture and cheap red dot. Will upgrade more and more as I go with it. As far as optics I’ll probably get either an eotech or some kind of red dot. Haven’t decided on a trigger yet. Planning on getting a FDE quad rail and a bipod for it. Other than that not sure yet. Debating on getting a BCG from cryptic coatings, those look awesome.

For red dots that can take a beating Primary Arms, and holosun are great. Holosun makes eotech clones with 50k battery life and they make standard red dots with an Eotech reticle.

Holosun Eotech clone (can be had for $250 used sometimes)

Holosun red dot with eotech reticle ($180)

Primary Arms aimpoint clone ($150) very durable optic.

I really like Primary Arms , theres some pretty brutal torture test videos out there of people beating on them. Ive ran a micro dot in carbine classes for awhile even.

For BCGs im pretty thoroughly convinced LWRC probably makes the best stuff. Theres no gas key or staking to worry about. Theres a member on here who builds custom guns and works at a full auto rental range that speaks pretty highly of them.although I dont have any experience with cryptic coatings stuff.
