Figured I would chronicle my build here to ask questions/advice and also have a running thread.
This build started in my search for a new truck/deer gun. I really like my Ruger SR556E and it has been my go to truck gun for years now, but I wanted a little more out of a cartridge for a regular deer rifle. After researching and digging I ended up here and settled in the 6.5G. Then seeing the work you guys have done with 12” pistols I decided to roll with it and try one.
So far my build plan is as follows and I will update this original post as list develops.
Lower - Palmetto State - Bought from PSA (I will replace this with an Aero FDE and use it on another project)
LPK - Strike Industries Enhanced without Grip - ordered from Primary Arms - will our JP springs in trigger for now
Grip - Ergo with beaver tail
Trigger - Larue MBT or Elftman (Can’t decide single or two stage. I have mil spec with JP springs in my Ruger and it’s nice)
Brace - SB Tactical SBA3 Black - Bought on sale at Brownells
Buffer Spring and Buffer - I have no idea...
BCG - Fail Zero or Bootleg probably with a group buy bolt
End Plate - Anderson - Bought from Primary Arms
Castle Nut - Anderson - Bought from Primary Arms
Upper Receiver - Aero Precision FDE - Bought from Arm or Ally
Barrel - Monster 12” from BFT - Bought from group buy
Muzzle Device - VG6 6.5 - Bought from Arm or Ally
Gas Block - Superlative Arms
Gas Tube - just a melonite one from a reputable manufacturer
Handgaurd - Aero Atlas S-One 9” FDE or something similar FDE
Optics - Vortex or PA 1-8x24 in a QD mount and a Holosun or Aimpoint Red Dot in a QD mount
I want two optics and will swap them and a Nikon 3-9x40 in a QD mount I already have around between this pistol and my Ruger SR.
So guys I will gladly take any and all advice!
