    If that's what you like, I say get it. I stay with Aero simply for the fact I know they work, I like the integrated trigger guard and the threaded bolt catch pin. The first few I built, I always scratched the lower trying to pop those in :rofl:

    I have one with that same stock and grip you currently have. Been debating trying the mft on one of my other lowers as well.

    Go with a SOPMOD stock. B5 and LMT makes one. It gives you the best cheek weld of any stock out there, at least for me it does. Once you go SOPMOD, you never go back.

    I've got enough "projects" for the truck sitting around to last me a while :rofl: :anonymous:
    Besides barrel, trigger, and optics.......I will always say that all other stuff is pretty much the same, so get what looks best to you. Unless you start talking to people with way more experience than your average AR enthusiast, it won't matter.

    Will I be able to tell the difference b/t a normal buffer tube and the Armaspec SRS? Probably not......but I wanted it.....so I got it.
    Can I tell the difference b/t the mil-spec trigger and my Elftmann.....damn straight :D

    That fat cheek weld is similar to a SOPMOD stock.

    Yeah, I had to google sopmod. It looked similar :rofl: That Magpul is comfortable, but my regular AR is heavy. I kinda built it like my Tacoma.......weight be damned :rofl: :rofl:

    looks like a nice stock but I'm going for more of the minimalist look and feel. Which is why i chose that stock. they also have an aluminum version which looks badass but too much $$$

    What's the cost on that? I kinda dig it. You can go SUPER minimalist with the Elftmann at $134 :eek:

    I'm probably gonna buy a cheap Amazon knockoff one to see if I even like it. I don't want to take a $100+ chance on it.

    Here's another.

    Also like the Tactical Dynamics for $49 :D
