Have concluded that three basic AR part upgrades make a big difference.
1. If you get anything, get a better trigger. I use LaRue MBT-2S on all my builds as the best bang for the buck. Its maybe not THE absolute best, but, dang, for $90 you're 97% of the way there. I'm gonna start selling the Schmid two-stage, which is priced even better and is claimed to be just as good as, or even better than, the LaRue.
2. Ambidextrous safety. Even if you're not a lefty, this is a no-brainer. Charge your gun then immediately use your right knuckle to flip the ambi-safety on. Ready to fire? Use your thumb to rotate the lever to off safe. Try it and you won't go back.
3. Upgraded charging handle. Charging handle needs a balance between being bigger so you can get a good grip with either left or right hand, and yet being small like the mil-spec original to be out of the way. Aero Precision's BREACH model does it best for the money, is ambidextrous, comes in three colors, and plus has a gas-deflecting shelf. Use their Large Lever when you've got a big scope or big hands, and their Small Lever for all others.
These three parts SHOULD be standard, but be that as it may, those who add them will greatly improve their operator experience.
