This is the same build I asked for help with and you guys were great. Thanks. The budget was and is $1,600. I am being asked to do the build. He has the striped upper and lower. From the help here it seems these are DPMS clones. I asked for help with the upper kit and followed a lead here. When I got his upper I found that it was not able to have a dust cover or assist. There goes $15 for parts and about the same for shipping. My bad. I had thought that a Krieger barrel and the JP BCG would be great choices. Now not so much. With a decent trigger I can see the budget being blown and I don't think his parts marry well with Krieger and JP. He wants to hunt with it and be able to shoot 1,000 yards with accuracy. Well don't we all. I don't think he's ever shot a .308 much less 1,000 yards. Someone here mentioned that these clones will at times not take all the pins from a lower parts kit. Whomever that was, your right. I thought it was the parts kit until trying the parts on an AR10 of my own. - Black Rain, for whatever that's worth - So I would once more like to ask for help with this build. Barrel, BCG and trigger with costs below the Krieger, JP threshold. And I was thinking of a two stage trigger. something like a 2# x 2#? He has a stock, I will mill something for the muzzle. BTW Krieger was great at stopping the order when they were made aware of the other parts. Nice guy there, Mike.
