Another AR-15 noob

M4 bbl on rifle upper is fine. Rifle bbl on M4 upper will cause issues.

 

Rifle barrel on m4 upper is ok

 

Jk, I posted this pic so you could see the proper ways of feed ramps

 

Yeah I saw that picture but I'm just wondering what it'll do if you don't have the right combination. Will it just jam up?

I got my barrel installed yesterday. Daniel Defense 16"
1 in 7 twist
Mid length
Gov contour

It's all coming together. I just have to get my rail, gas block/tube and some flip up sights.

 

Mostly likely jam city!

 

Jam-o-matic. The tip of the bullet can catch in that overlap.

 

Ok. That make sense.

 

Well everyone, I got my rail and gas system in the mail yesterday. I payed for standard 7-10 day shipping and it came in 2 days. Must have put the wrong label on it or something.. Thank you all for the help while building my rifle. Now I just want to save up for an eotech holographic sight but the flip up sights will work for now.

Parts:
Aero Precision Lower Receiver
-AR stoner buffer assembly
-Magpul grip
-Magpul ACS buttstock
-Magpul magazines
-ALG Defense Trigger
-KNS Trigger Pins
-Standard safety/mag release

Aero Precision Upper Receiver
-APF armory BCG
-APX charge handle
-Daniel Defense 16" barrel
-ALG Defense muzzle brake
-Fortis Rev rail
-Fortis gas block
-Magpul flip up sights
-Magpul angled grip

I think that's it. Trying to think of all of it off the top of my head.

 

@sdavidson94 good looking rifle man. Good luck and safe shooting

 

@gman556 Thanks man! Now hopefully I can get out and shoot it sometime soon. I finished it just in time for rain season...

 

build turned out looking great! ...be safe, and enjoy!

 

Thanks! I haven't gotten a chance to shoot it yet because of the rain... I guess that's what you get for finishing it in the fall season in the northwest. I'll get out one of these days and let ya'll know how it goes!

By the way, I bought a drago double gun case and the zippers broke the day I got it. I bought it on Amazon and thankfully was able to return it. I'd avoid it if anyone is looking to get a case. I like the voodoo one though. Might go with that one. Plus it's only about 15 bucks more.

 

I bought the blackhawk 2 gun case on Amazon for 30.00. It has been good so far.

 

Hey everyone, I just realized I never gave you guys an update. It's been pretty cold and rainy over here in Washington but I made my way up to the mountains to go shoot my AR about a month ago. Shot a few hundred rounds through it!
It worked perfect the first time. No problems at all other than my muzzle brake spinning off a little. I need to get a new crush washer for it...
I helped my friend put his together as well and his worked too except he bought the wrong size gas tube.

Anyway, thanks again for all the help guys!

 

If you really want to build your own for a great deal check out guns 80.com also palmetto state armory

 

It looks good but, your rear sight is backwards. It should fold to the rear.

 

Yeah, I realized that. I have flipped it around since I took that picture. Thanks for looking out though!

 

I'm guessing you didn't scroll through the rest of the thread? I finished putting my AR a couple months ago. I got most of my parts from midway and a few from a local shop in Tacoma called Surplus Ammo and Arms. I definitely recommend that shop to anyone around this area.

 

nope sorry just jumped in because they both have really good deals .maybe on your next one . You know you have to build another right . Have fun shooting my friend

 

Looks great
