Finally got it together - nboost - 09-24-2012
Started this build back in April. Waited for what seemed like forever for the barrel, but got it and the other parts. Hopefully I will get to shoot it this weekend.
AA 18" barrel
Ross brake
Midwest Industries front handguard
AA side charging upper

How long did it take for AA to get your order? Looks nice! I like the side charger!

Very nice looking and clean! I love the side chargers. Wish I had went with a left side though. Awesome though, should shoot great!

Solid looking upper
Few questions, If you dont mind (I ask because I'm building one almost identical to yours)
1. Does your charging handle rub the receiver?
I heard from more than one person that its a problem with other brands (Not mentioning name intentionally to avoid bashing a product I have no personal experience with)
2. Have you put it on a lower yet? and if you did, how did you like the right compared to left side charger?
Thanks for any attention shown to this post, I know I'm new here. Been Busy in other countries.
BTW,
My Specs if you were wondering:
Upper: undecided
Barrel: Satern 18" (Custom Profile)
Handguards: either MI, YHM Jarrett or AA Composite
Muzzle Brake: Ross Brake
Glass: undecided

I haven't heard of any rubbing yet, but mine is a AA and it does not rub the receiver and I have mounted it to a lower and it shoots great. This is the first time I assembled an upper and it was very easy. Sounds like you have a good plan.

how long did it take for your barrel to ship in

I have the Alexander Arms upper receiver and it doesnt rub at all. Even after firing the thing probably 100 rounds or a little over it touches it nowhere.
