Just 2 pictures of my first assembly (not a build as I used a barreled upper)
This rifle belongs to a friend of mine. We decided to put together a pair of KISS M4geries using the components of our choice.
We put this one together in about 20 minutes, including 5 minutes to watch an online video of how to assemble an AR lower. It was very easy to do with no problems with any of the Double Star LPK components or the Essential Arms lower. Castle nut is staked & rear sight has blue Locktite on the bolts.
Mine will be identical except for a Daniel Defense A1.5 rear sight instead of the Magpul folder. eventually I will add an Aimpoint T1 in DD's MicroMount as well.
Took her to the range today for initial zero and break in:
Function tested, she locks back on 1 round of Wolf 75gr., Brown Bear 55 gr., Centurion 55gr. and XM-193 so the H-buffer is GTG.
All functioning was smooth with ejection at 2-3 o'clock.
Trigger was very nice and smooth for MILSPEC type. It broke clean and consistent at about 5 lbs.
Ran about 140 rounds through her into standard 100 m. bullseye targets from 100m off of sandbags. The first shot before adjusting anything was 12" high 6" Left.
After zeroing, our best 5 shot groups were running 2"- 2.5" with the Centurion. My friend did get a 3 consecutive shot cloverleaf inside the center ring .5" right of the x but the next 2 shots opened it up to 2". So by internet standards, this rifle will shoot sub moa groups with MBUS all day long
The components are:
BCM: barreled 16" upper, auto bolt carrier group, charging handle, and receiver extension assembly with spring and H buffer.
Essential Arms: lower receiver
Magpul: MOE handguards, grip, stock and rear MBUS.
Double Star: lower parts kit.
Noveske: QD endplate and QD sling swivel.
Cost as described was $ 1,150.00 when all delivery charges and the transfer were added up.
