F-1 AR-10 Build Help

[jack_belton5]

I'm trying to put together a list of parts in order to build an F-1 Firearms DPMS patterned AR-10. I've come to the conclusion that I want a 16" barrel that I can replace with something nicer later on down the road. Anderson Rifles makes a 16" barrel that uses a mid-length gas system that I really like. It's $99.99 and seems like a great barrel to use for the time being. Since I want to run the gun suppressed most of the time, I'm planning on ordering an adjustable gas block so I can fine tune it. Can any of you tell me what recoil system I need to buy? I want a collapsible stock but I don't know what buffer and buffer spring to buy. 

Thanks in advance for the help.

I'd have to recommend the kit from Armalite;

So I shouldn't have any problem with cycling if I buy the adjustable gas block right? That's really all I'm worried about at this point.

I'd recommend the SLR;

Odds are they will be having a 4th of July sale.

Bought the Aero buffer kit for my Matrix build. It works now but need some modifications for proper function on my rifle.
