My BCM Midlength AR-15 Carbine Build

Yes, it's a nice rifle. It would be hard to do any better.

Orange rail covers? Or perhaps blue since David is in Rutherford County?

[mikegideon]

I could post a picture of how to ruin a good rifle, but those kinda things can't be unseen

Heh. No MTSU fans in this house. No Vols fans either. Roll Tide!

Blasphemous! An infiltrator!

The Bama thing is usually for life. I was raised by one.

Took some pics today. It occurred to me that I likely hadn't posted any since I put the red-dot sight on it and completed the build. Oversight on my part.

I am actually tempted to pull the Eotech off and maybe sell it in favor of putting a low-power magnified optic on it instead. I am running the exact same RDS on my short barrel rifle, and it's a great optic, but this mid-length might be more fun if I could see out there a bit further. Anyway, I digress...

[mikegideon]

Looks Great. I love my Eotech, but it does kinda limit the rifle. I've thought about stickng a Bobro mount on a magnified optic so I can switch between the two.

Looks great...I got that same Eotech on one of my AR's and so far for the money its unbeatable...i have had the acog's and c-more's but just prefer the eotechs. Like how you did the rail covers, keep up the good work!

Looks great, I am not far behind you on a VERY similar build.

Hurry up, man... time's a wasting!

Yep, you're right! ......uhh can I borrow a few bucks:)

Same style setup I went with my AR build, 16" w/ a 12" quad rail & lotsa magpul goodies. Although I am in the sights dilemma as well, I am not sure if I want to throw an eotech or aimpoint on it, or go for a 1-4x optics. I bought a cheap red dot, but something is messed up with it internally (probably just all around being cheap) and it will shift after about 2-3 shots, the mount stays solid though so I know that is not the problem. I should have just foregone wasting the money on it and waited for something better.

If you decide to sell the eotech, let me know

If your gonna buy a cheap dot the UTG 38mm tube unit is pretty solid for ~$30.00 The Eotech is really worth the investment however.

Already bought/regret the other cheap red dot. I am going to at least inquire to their customer service and see what they have to say, I may have just gotten a defective unit. We shall see though.

Nysos, Troy Ind. is having a sale right now for Aimpoint products--buy anything Aimpoint and get a free set of Troy sights (which can be turned around and sold)

David, nice build. *Thumbs up*

[Magiccarpetrides]

They also have their rails and Mini-14 chassis on sale too 50% off(fwiw)...all I could do not to pull the trigger on the Troy rail for $100!

They shouldn't have sales like this--it's bordering on robbery
