    Default First .308 second build

    Item I need before getting barrel:
    - DPMS A3 stripped upper receiver $155.25 Shipped.
    - DPMS 308 Upper Parts. (Found out the Kit is not for .308) $45.60 everything without charging handle.
    - BCM Mod 3 Charging Handle $60.90 Shipped.
    - DPMS BCG $245.40 Shipped.
    - ]MGI Regulator Gas Tube The Gas tube adjustment block does not fit the barrel, so I am not going to use it.
    - Gas Tube $19.50 Shipped.
    - Hopefully this Troy Gas Block will fit the Krieger barrel.
    - JP Rifles Extended Length Handguard. $197.90 Shipped.
    - Ordering a 24" SS Fluted Bull Barrel from DPMS. $250.68 Shipped.
    I decided on DPMS barrel because it had a really really good price. and if I don't like the way it shoots I can surely upgrade at a later time.
    - Harris 6"-9" HRBM Bipod. $74.95 Shipped.
    - DPMS Lower. $300.00 Shipped/transferred.
    - DPMS Buffer, Buffer-Spring, and Extension Buffer Tube. $51.52 Shipped.
    - DPMS LPK for .308 less Trigger Group. $52.55 Shipped.
    - Geissele Hi-Speed Match trigger.
    - EDIT: I found a Geissele S2S for $125, so I am going to try it out and see how smooth it is. I'll probably post a review of it here. $130.00 Shipped.
    - ERGO Tactical Deluxe Grip $65.55 Shipped.
    - Magpul PRS Stock $198.98 Shipped.
    - Precision Rail Monopod. $99.15 Shipped.

    - LaRue Mount scope mount. $154.95 Shipped.



    - Armalite AR-10 Lower. Decided against the Armalite... DPMS had a bigger availability of accessories that I liked.

    Optics? Well I am thinking a Leupold Mk IV I decided to get a Vortex Crossfire. $219.00 Shipped.
    All of this is going in a Pelican 1750 Long Case.


    Got My LPK (minus the trigger group in bag), Buffer parts (tube, spring, and buffer), and my super cool ERGO pistol grip.

    Got my Magpul PRS today! Took a week but I got it for under $200 shipped!

    And this found its way into my collection. A Charter Arms AR-7, Probably won't shoot real great but I'm sure my 12 year old will shoot the crap outta it, and will be handy for the Bug Out Kit.

    Looks good so far! I'm doing a Grendel path along the same lines...

    I might get one of those built after my pistols are built, and after I get my reloading equipment set up.

    Got the barrel today! Here is a new mock up. I'll get with the smithy and see what we can do to get the barrel fitted up nice.

    View from the business end.

    I assembled the upper. All I need now is to get it headspaced and make sure it is in specs.

    Got my Lower today! Didn't take long for me to drop in the trigger and the other small parts.





    Just have to save up for the optics and get the rest of the attachments!
