I have had most of these parts for almost 4 years.  I bought some raw aluminum Diamondback lowers for about $70.  I then bought all of the other parts over the next 6 months.  Everything sat in my safe for  about 3 years.  Then, it took me until last fall to get the lower cerakoted.  I finally put everything together just before Memorial Day.

Here is a short video of my nephew shooting it at about 270 yards.

As stated, it is a Diamondback upper, lower and handguard.  I've got a 20" Shilen barrel that I bought at their swap.  They said they drilled the gas port too big and marked it at $350.  I have an AGB to compensate.

I put a Magpul PRS stock in back to balance out the extra weight in front.  It is rifle length with standard rifle buffer and Armalite spring.  I got a Geissele SD-E 2 stage trigger at a close out sale that I put in there.  I like the Ballistic Engineering trigger that I got from @JBMatt better though.  I may change it out later.

I put an Arken 4-16x50 scope on it.  I like it so far.  I got it sighted in and adjusted the gas block, then destroyed a few rocks at 125 yards.  Then I let others shoot it.
