Monroe Thanks all. Maybe I should outline my plan (so far). Looking to build something that has better accuracy than the FAL but not so heavy that I can't shoot on the move. Starting plan: AP M5E1 builder set, Criterion 16" Nitrated SS hybrid contour, I'd like a slick bcg with a carpenter 158 bolt, adjustable gas block (unsure mfg). I think this will work pretty well? I've got headspace gages etc. Just need to seek some more intel and make some final decisions.

New here but not new to the gun culture by a long shot. Have been into FALs for decades but I'm considering my first AR308 build as I search for options other than the SCAR17s. Not sure why it took me so long to look into this platform. I''m a little nervous about how things with work together. I've heard this platform is more than a little finicky. Anyway looking to glean some info from those in the know, thanks in advance! Doug
