Work In Progress: My 6.5G so far - TacHunter - 10-03-2016 So this is pretty simple still, but I've got pretty much all the basic stuff taken care of. I just need to get the rest of the upgrades ordered in. So far this is what I've got Upper: AA 6.5 Grendel upper Sharps Bolt w/Maximum Firearms Bolt Assembly Lilja 19" AR319 barrel with 1:8 twist Custom 17.75" machine forged handguard A2 Flash Hider (I have a comp that I may put on, but IDK yet) Odin adjustable gas block. As for optics, I'm putting my Viper HST 6-24x 50 on it. I have a VLTOR BCM ambi-latch charging handle coming in. Lower: Spikes normal Lower I'm going to be replacing quite a bit on the lower. I'll show that off once I get everything put on it. Work In Progress: My 6.5G so far - danm - 10-03-2016 Looks NICE, when's range day? Work In Progress: My 6.5G so far - BluntForceTrauma - 10-04-2016 Lookin' good. So who makes the handguard? Work In Progress: My 6.5G so far - LRRPF52 - 10-04-2016 Looks great. For stocks, the Magpul ACS might be good for you. Also, the Daniel Defense stock would be a great match for that. Work In Progress: My 6.5G so far - RicosRevenge - 10-04-2016 Looking good!!! Any trigger plans? Work In Progress: My 6.5G so far - TacHunter - 10-04-2016 I haven't listed everything that's going into the lower as I haven't gotten them ordered in yet, but I'm going to put these on it. Luth-AR Carbine stock, Debating on a CMC, Rise Armament, Timney, or Black Rain trigger. I like the Rise Armament it's $100.00, but is a crisp 3.5 lbs, but I may want to go with an adjustable so the Black Rain might be better. @BluntForceTrauma: I met a guy at Shot Show last year who was trying to promote his handguards to some of the smaller companies at the show. I've talked with him over the last few months about his stuff and I had him make me a handguard that would fit 19" barrels. His name is Aaron Khechum and he doesn't have a site yet, but hopefully he will. He makes some good handguards and they are all made in the USA, so I decided to give them a try for this build. I'll get the exact stats of it and post it up. I'm sure he wouldn't mind having people looking at his stuff. Work In Progress: My 6.5G so far - Texas - 10-05-2016 good looking rifle, particularly like the handguard. Work In Progress: My 6.5G so far - TacHunter - 10-17-2016 Well I've got it all the components completed. Now I just need to get it up state to get painted. I'm going to go with either the Kryptek Highlander pattern, or the Badlands Approach pattern. Either one will be great for the Sage/Desert. So here is the complete List of what was used. Upper Receiver- Scope- Vortex Viper HST 6-24x50 Scope Rings - Vortex CM-202 2" offset Alexander Arms 6.5 Grendel Upper Lilja 19" AR319 Barrel Custom 17.75" Hanguard Muzzle Device - I have no idea, found it in my parts box Gas System - Odin Works Maxim Firearms Bolt with Sharps Bolt Carrier Mil-spec Charging Handle. I have a VLTOR one coming in. Harris 9-13" swivel bipod Lower Receiver- Spikes Punisher Lower CMC 3.5 LB Single Stage straight trigger with KNS Anti-Rotation pins Luth-AR Carbine adjustable Stock Spikes LPK Spikes T2 buffer kit I kind of cheated on cost since I am a buyer for a sporting goods store, but this minus the scope is a sub $900.00 build. Retail I think it'll be around $1300-ish.
