LarryQ Posted July 21, 2017 Report Share Posted July 21, 2017 Just joined the forum! just finished my first .308 AR build and love it! heavy, but shoots very well! i used aero precision parts for most of it, then added an adjustable gas block, a monopod, bipod and a sweet suppressor! look forward to haunting the forum L Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LarryQ Posted July 21, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2017 Thanks!! i got "sick" of 5.56 ar's and decided to wade in the 7.62x51 waters! this was also my first use of a vortex scope! they make some nice stuff! this originally started as a pig build for my lovely bride, but it came together so well I may not give it back!!! the suppressor is a 762-ad and very effective! i am totally sold on suppressors and bought a bunch of the before the new rules went into effect. bought some in calibers I don't even own .... YET!!! thanks for the welcome!! L Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
