The best kind of problem...

[ShamGlock]

Here's the deal. I have 2 stripped lowers and $1200. I can't seem to make my mind up on how I would like to build these next two. I don't really care for the 5.56 in a pistol and I also don't care to build one that has the capacity to put multiple rounds through the same hole at 400 yards. I kinda like mine to be functional shooters that can take a beating.

I built my first one out last month with all PSA parts and now I have the bug. I'm really looking for ideas on different directions here. Any good ideas that y'all have will be truly appreciated. I'm not in a rush, just wanna get a little more exposure to interesting options before I pick a direction on these guys.

Thanks

I have wanted to do up an ar in artic white camo for a while now. Not very useful camo wise around here but would be different. But if you havent done a black ar and a tan one those should be first

Also you might consider some other calibers like .300blk, .50gi, .50ae, 7.62x25tokarev, 6.8, .458socom etc

How 'bout a .45 ACP SBR?

I may have to look into this myself or at least a .45 pistol ar.

If/When I build another AR, it's going to be in .458 SOCOM. They're not cheap to shoot, but they are awesome.

I have been itching to build something stupid simple, 14.5-16", maybe A2 upper with light weight profile barrell. I just can't bring myself to try out other calibers with the price of ammo these days (try to keep my firearm caliber pool small). Another thing I've been contemplating is building one on the cheap and then see what kind of abuse it can take.

how about a true side racked only. no charging handle, like a ASA or Grizzly LAR? JP also makes one but to use on your lower you would have to get the upper reciever that also has the charging handle.

How about a tax stamp and a 10-12" upper? That's my kind of AR! I know if I every decide to build an AR it WILL be a short barrel.
