This being your first build, allow me, if I may, to suggest that you take your time and select the appropriate components with care. You do, after all, wish this to be a rifle you can enjoy for a long time. Without getting into specifics, just let me say that there are two adages that seem to echo from most builders: "By cheap, buy twice", and its corollary; "Buy once, cry once.". These apply literally to all aspects of the build.
From the looks of your upper, a heavy slick side, you should be gtg for any barrel profile you wish, although this upper is likely best suited for a heavier barrel configuration.
Once you post a little more info (intended use, budget, etc.) I am certain the Horde will make itself available for any advice you seek.
Again, Welcome!
My goal is a good target shooter. Not hunting.
This is what I ordered so far. I expect the comments good and bad. My mistake was not joining this forum first I imagine?
This is what I have so far:

Mako FAB Defense GL-MAG Black Rifle Stock Built-in 10 Round Mag Carrier
