Heres my build, you guys inspired me. Weve been buying a house lately so funds are tight so i started with a reciever and lower parts i already had. This made convincing someone else that buying a new barrel and upper and optic was a reasonable choice, much easier. I went with a bca side charger since solo was out at the moment i looked. In hopes of reducing weight close to the plastic parts some are using i went to town with the angle grinder and drill. I call it the golfball gun.

I forgot to take one without the optic and can but it was under 4lb. Im also quite proud of the cut down magazine i made using a plastic welder and those hot staple things. Saving .5 oz wasnt exciting but having an ar with a flatter profile on the front lower is nice and still fits 7.
My big complaints are the thing shoots awful. I mean military grade accuracy. So once the house dies down im going to buy a good barrel (guess i got my $80 worth). And the kidon stock has that awful bend in it. My face either is on that hard angle or in the CH which both suck.
Otherwise i love the thing. Its so light and fun to operate. I hope I can get a barrel before season and use it on a hunt or two!
