Modern Sporter - Build Discussions

3 more parts on the way from Brownells, I Decided to give the new Geissele Super 42 Braided Wire Spring & Buffer a try.

I had a Geiselle wire braided spring and it look cool, but not sure if it was any diff from the regular spring.
I do have a new barrel (CFW 20 inch).and I think I might order a Brownells titanium BCG.
I also have a 15 inch BAD Handguard that I might use.

I wish to build the most accurate, lightest weight and most compact and modular Modern Sporter possible.
It'll be switch barrel between 223 and 6.5 Grendel. I'm going with :
- BSF carbon fiber shrouded barrels (less then half the price of Proof... 18.6" in 223 and 20" in 6.5G) and SLR adjustable gas block
- Fortis Switch hand guard (same as DRD Tactical for half the cost)
- Dead Foot Arms BCG with folding stock adapter and T-Rex stock with JP captive buffer
- Timney Elite trigger
It wont be a cheap build but I think it'll be awesome. Feel free to PM me for more info.

That's a really good idea
 
So this is my first AR build and here is what I am thinking.....
Bravo Company Lower Part Kit.
Bravo Company buffer tube and spring.
Magpul STR stock.
Radian Raptor Charging Handle.
Radian BCG.
Maple Ridge 18.6" nitride barrel.
MR Gas Tube & Gas Block.
MR 17" Handguard.
Hiperfire 556C comp.

Am I missing parts or any other comments?

Yes - rifle length gas tube and 20" barrel and a a2 stock for getting her cleared
 
It’s not an AR. It’s a Modern Sporter. Know what I mean?

Have the gas tube listed. Yes going with rifle length as I believe that is now the only option from Maple Ridge Armoury on the 18.6" barrel also listed above. The Magpul STR is adjustable instead of a fixed.....like the adjustable since myself and a couple different daughters will be shooting this regularly.
 
BCM buffer tube assy
AAC nickle boron bcg
JP lpk
Magpul ext mag release
ACT trigger
Raptor charging handle
Magpul K grip
Magpul fixed carbine stock
Seekins Rook flash hider
War Sport bolt catch
Strike Industries dust cover

Still unsure of barrel mfr/length/profile and handguard...
 
I have a Maple Ridge Armoury SLW handguard and Guardian barrel with a S&J linear comp waiting to install. Had my MRA 11.5 upper out this weekend and was super happy with the performance. I think this will be a good fit.
Does anyone have some good feedback on Hiperfire or Elfmann triggers? I have a Geissele SD3G that I am happy with, but thought I might try something else. Looking at a single stage.

Let's throw a Timney Calvin elite in the mix too. I have one for a 10/22, but haven't had a chance to test it. I'm interested to hear how it performs on the AR platform.

What do you think about the brownell BCG? I want to order one TiN BCG but not sure about the quality.

Ive had 3 different brownells BCG's in the last year and never had issues with any of them. So I dont think this one will be any different. The Fit and finish on this 99$ bolt puts some more expensive one to shame.

The are manufactured by Toolcraft and have a lifetime warrenty. Last time I had to deal with Brownells for warrenty, it took just 1 email and they shipped out the replacement part for free and told me to trash the old part.
