Hey guys, about to assemble my first AR, ever. The aesthetics of a 15 inch handguard with my 16 inch barrel killed me. I was wondering if there was any significant difference to go 18 inch instead. im in Texas and don't think I'll ever have a long range shot. If I ever do want to go long range with this accurately then I'd go with a real barrel with weight and length.

Yeah definitely when I saw that armalite sold their kit for 65 i thought it was a hell of a deal compared to damn VLTOR prices appreciate the advice on calling, ill call them monday and see if I can sweet talk them into selling one more. what do yall think about BCM SOPMOD?

not sure how i mucked up and got a dumb 3.25" from that post lmao was on the phone at work earlier

if anyone wants to purchase from that link - 7onefreeship is the code for free shipping which saves the deal

wow, thank you very much! and that is a 3.25 inch spring? Is there a specific tube and/or buffer that yall generally reccomend? Or should i splurge on VLTOR for both? Awesome yall! Appreciate it mucho!

Thank you sir! Excellent read - basically I should adhere to stoners original collapsible ar10 stock of 7 and 5/8, over 5.4oz buffer, and that size spring of 3.25 inch. What spring do y'all reccomend? I'll go with Vltor AT tube since it's that length, and their H buffer of 5.4oz or greater. Tho, stoner designed the ar10 around 762x51 and a 308 has more energy so it might be worth going over 5.4oz

The customer service at aero told me it would work with an H2 or 5.2+oz buffer - but apparently this needs a shorter spring, but not sure on exactly what products

Hey there, Howdy from Texas! Building my first AR, running a faxon 308 16 midlength pencil barrel on my aero atlas, will purchase some sort of quality adjust block that goes on sale. I would like a short and adjustable stock, not a fixed rifle. I was originally going to go with a VLTOR A5 (since its so highly regarded) and finally found it on optics planet, until I saw posts that said it wouldnt work as standard even with the adjustable block I see that aero precision runs their 16 mid ar10s on a carbine stock, and I was thinking if they do it then I might as well get their parts kits. Absolutely confused with so many different things that is both said and posted. I saw that slash chart and didnt help what so ever... but maybe im just a wee bit too dumb lol any help and advice is appreciated! be well
