First AR build

[bauerr3]

I purchased a disassembled AR from an INGOer a couple days ago, just got around to finishing the assembly with some help and I think it looks great. (Big thanks you churchmouse for the assitance)

Here are the specs:

DB15 16" 1:9 with 9.5" free float rail, and BCG/CH
PSA Stripped lower
PSA LPK
Blackhawk stock/grip not pictured, but I replaced them with a Hogue MilSpec Overmolded Buttstock and Beavertail Grip in Red Lava
Magpul MBUS

Final product:

It isn't quite done, as I still have some things to get to add on, but I am still very happy with how it turned out. Considering it was my first build and I had no problems putting it together, even with limited tools, I will definitely build more as the funds are available. It really is Legos for big kids, and my brother and I had a good time putting it together. Thank you to everyone who offered their tools and time to help me get it finished. I'm certain that I'll have a need in the future, and its great knowing that there are so many people willing to help now I just need the weather to cooperate so I can go shoot!

CM wasn't exactly the overseer, I just didn't have a tool and he offered to let me come use his. But either way, I feel wrong that it sits there unused...I've got an itch
