FNG - first build


texag15

Recommended Posts

How's it going guys?

Long time gun enthusiast. This will be my first AR build. Bought an Aero Precision M5 lower from my local shop today and can not wait to get started on my build.

I have no idea where to go from here/what I want other than the AP upper receiver and Magpul PRS stock. But that's why I am here. Looking forward to learning.

Thanks

TexAg=Aggie?  If so, welcome from a fellow Aggie!  First, ask yourself what your main purpose is for the rifle, ie, hunting, long range, etc.  That will help determine a lot of parts.

Yessir! I think I would like it to be a little bit of everything. I will primarily use it at my ranch target shooting and hog/deer hunting so I would like for it to be a nice general purpose use gun.

Welcome from Texas....lets go shoot hogs!       Wash

I hope you are a big ol Texas size man if you are gonna use the PRS as a truck /all purpose gun ?

These ar 308's can get heavy real fast and then they arnt fun to shoot anymore ...I always try to build lighter  weight rifles        Wash
