Well looks like I am going to rethink what I am going todo.

It would be flip up sights, magpul mbus ones since they are so affordable.

I haven't had to worry about this, because I have a JP handguard with no rails, but I am looking to get a Gas block with with a rail integrated (currently have a low profile block). Purpose is for Iron sights. DPMS lists 2 .936 block with different heights. Which should I get? Or what do I measure to determine the upper rail height. Or doesn't it really matter so much? 308-GB-SR9 http://www.dpmsinc.com/store/products/?prod=1778&cat=1775 GB-SR9 http://www.dpmsinc.com/store/products/?prod=1364

I just ordered a Fulton 20" NM SS Barrel that is not threaded.

I have had about 200 rounds through the rifle at this point. It's preformed flawlessly for me. So thanx to Mega Arm and Fulton Armory for draining my bank account. <thumbsup> At least it was worth it. I have gotten a few compliments and questions on the rifle at the range.

I just wanted to report I went out to the range with a few rounds of 150gr soft point rounds. I am very happy with the accuracy. My only comparison is a mini-14 which isn't very good over 100yds, but I got it locked into about 3 inch groups after about 20 rds. I have some 135 GR Sierra HPBT match rounds to hand load, but I am having trouble finding reloading data on 135GR 308 rounds.

What grip is that I like it a lot, I am rocking a stock LR308 grip :)

I will also say the larger rear stock really helps the balance since the barrel and hand guard are both fairly heavy.

Here is a picture with the Magpul PRS stock all installed. I took it out to the range last week. What a blast! I had a couple epic jams because of the brass catcher bouncing the brass back into the bolt. My other rifle is a used Mini-14 so I had a large smile on my face when I was spinning the metal targets 2 or 3 times. The mini would just tip them. I bore sighted up the scope and I have some match bullets coming to handload for the next time at the range.

Here she is. All put together, going to take her to the range this weekend. I don't have the PRS stock on yet, I ended up with a carbine buffer by mistake, so I ran to a local gun shop and got a Magpul MOE on the cheap just to get it finished up.

Here is the barrel, gas system and bolt carrier assembly from Fulton. Barrel, FA, Titan, 20", NM, HBAR, SS, 1x12, .936" Everything seems to fit together correctly for now. I should have the rest of the parts from Brownells tomorrow. [img width=810 height=607]http://home.sharpie.org/upper-almost.jpg

So Far, Mega MA-TEN upper and lower with the stock DPMS lower parts kit. The plan is a Magpul PRS stock, JP 12.5 guard, Rockmount Bipod from Brownell. From Fulton Armory, 20 inch SS, NM, Stainless barrel (non threaded), they're BCG assembly. More pix as I progress. It's my first build of a rifle. I also am in the market for a sub 500 dollar scope to complete the gun. I will mostly be shooting 200 yards at the range and hopefully hunting with it someday.
