Well I am getting my the parts put together for my first AR build it is a little different than most for a first and different than i planned on but i am exited about it

So far i have

AR57 Upper (5.7x28mm) 16" w/ 50 rd mag
S&W M&P striped lower
Magpul MOE green stock
2 magpul brass catchers (ejects empties out the mag well)

Still need
a lower parts kit and will be putting it together,

and need sights or an optic, i might be stealing the 4x redfield off my rem 7400 .243 til I can get something else

I also have a Stag stripped lower that I plann on building soon or at least getting a 5.56 and maybe 458 socom upper for lower i will have built, will put up pics soon

here is the pre build pic I got a DPMS LPK from 5280 Armory yesterday going to build tonight or tommrrow if all goes well

I think i may need to get taller rings for the scope or get a shorter optic to be able to access the mag.

Congrats! I always thought the 5.7 action was really slick/interesting. Be sure to let us know how she shoots!

Thanks I look forward to it the biggest thing now besides building it is figuring out the optic or sights
