Here's' mine. Ruger 10/22 and a Remington R-15. I'd love to custom build a precision AR, but that whole money thing......

I built one recently- Stag lower,Magpul PRS stock, Stag Varmint 6HL upper-flat top,heavy SS barrel, Caldwell bi-pod, Vtac wide sling, Pmag 20 rounders, Hogue grip, and Millet 6-25x56 scope. Ran about $1500 altogether but it took about a year getting everything together.

bm varminter upper, I built the lower with a dpms parts kit and a timney 3# trigger, bipod, and topped it off with a burris xtr scope. I built it with a standard trigger at first, but after installing the timney it made it a whole new weapon, I also switched out the gas block, no reason I just thought it looked better.
DPMS Match upper with a 34" bull SS barrel 1/8
RRA lower with RRA match 2 stage trigger
Magpul PRS stock
Sightron SIII mil-dot scope
Some day I'll work on getting the scope lower, but for now it works just fine.
Yeah I'm thinking a trigger upgrade is next.

There are a lot of good trigger's for AR's out there. I have a JP one stage with speed hammer in another of my guns and it's by far the best trigger I've ever felt in a rifle.
how are the RRA national match triggers?

They're not bad, but they are two stage. There's pre-travel that has to be taken up before you hit the wall. Compared to a std trigger, it's wonderful. Compared to a JP single stage with a speed hammer, it's barely acceptable.
is it worth all the extra money? I dont have any trigger time with any of the high end triggers.
