Buying the barrel/bolt, upper&lower receivers and LPK from PF is a good decision you won't be disappointed. Your right the bolt carrier is not included and I would also buy that from PF.
I agree with Klem, top considerations are barrel, trigger, optics. The barrel you have covered. The extra money you spend on a trigger is money well spent. I've got Timney and Geiselle triggers, both are very good but if I had to choose one I go with the Geiselle SSA-E. Optics, lots of choices, Vortex is a great scope for the money but it all come down to your requirements. Is this a build for hunting, bench shooting or maybe just a fun blaster?
You cover a lot of ground in this post, if you break it down into specific components and post on an individual component you'll get some great advise. To finish your build with furniture and the rest, there are a lot of quality components available. It comes down to personal preference and requirements.
