I've been in the market for an AR-15 for a little while now, and have recently decided to build it custom, the way I want it. After plenty of researching, I've come up with what I think I'm gonna do, and I'd like some input and feedback on it.
1) Mid-length A4 Upper from Rock River Arms (options - std. mid-length handguard, chrome-lined lightweight 1:9 barrel, A2 flash hider/front sight, std. latch) - $495.00
2) Lower parts kit from Rock River Arms (std. pistol grip, RRA 2-stage trigger) - $180.00
3) Stripped lower from somewhere local; as far as I know, a lower is a lower, right?
4) I'll probably get a 6-position stock.
5) Lastly, for now, I plan on getting a 40L low-profile flip-up rear sight. When I have the extra cash, I'll mount an EOTech on there.
Looks like I'm looking at around 900 bucks dropped on this (before the optics). How does all this sound to you guys? Am I forgetting anything?
