My first AR build, do these parts make sense together?

Thu Jul 26, 2018 10:46 pm

I've done as much research as I can and I have collected most of the parts. Once I install them I won't be able to return them so it would be much appreciated if someone who has experience could proof read my build for me.

I'm not going to list the whole build, just the parts I am not sure about:

8" pistol barrel, with 0.106 gas port
Superlative arms adjustable gas block
JP LMOS carrier group
JP SCS H2 w/ alternative spring pack
carbine buffer tube (pistol brace)

I wanted to build it to strike a balance between felt recoil and reliability. That's why I went with low mass bolt carrier and adjustable gas block. I went with a H2 buffer because the documentation at JP said to do so if you have a SBR or run suppressed, which I will do both

I plan on shooting mostly Armscor 300BO 147gr, because I can get a case of it for cheap. I like the Sonic boom just not the blast so when I get my Omega 9K out of NFA jail I plan on shooting supers through it.

Yeah, caliber is key here. 9mm, 300BO, .308?
