Planning a new build
#7
AR10s are a tricky bitch. I’ve built a few and there are things you need to consider.

Depending on barrel length.. weight can be an issue. Adjustable gas block is a must. Personally I wouldn’t go with a plus 1 or 2 rifle length. The dwell time and over gassing issues- on top of the possibility of punctured primers and overall being rough on brass. Did I mention cycling issues?

Where you need to spend your money:
Optics-barrel-trigger and glass

My 6.5 CM sports a 22” Criterion Hybrid barrel. It’s damn nice but heavy. I like Aero Precision upper/lowers (M5 series). I’m using one of their enhanced rails. Larue MBT two stage trigger. Vortex Viper HS 6-25x50. Magpul PRS stock.

Personally wouldn’t go longer than 20 inches on the barrel. Also consider what BCG your going to run. It needs to be high pressure- they also offer dual ejectors. I’m running a Toolcraft.
