    Been browsing the forums for a few months and thought I would get to saying hello to you all. I am new to the 6.8 and AR community. Working on building my first AR for hunting coyotes, pig, and deer; here are the specs:
    • Lower - Spikes Tactical
    • LPK - Palmetto State Armory w/ Magpul enhanced trigger guard and MOE+ pistol grip
    • Stock Kit - Mil Spec PSA 6 position
    • Upper - Aero Precision Flat Top
    • Handguard - Nordic Components rifle length customizable FF tube
    • Bolt Carrier - Young Manufacturing Chrome AR15
    • Bolt - Will purchase with barrel
    • Barrel - Mid length DI gas system
      • 16" or 18" SPR profile
      • Considering Bison Armory, AR Performance, or Wilson Combat [Let me know what you have and what you would recommend]

    Welcome. I went with Bison, but from what I have read here the other 2 you referenced are quality parts and would serve you well.

    Welcome, I went with the 16" mid length Rock river Arms upper and a Spikes Tactical lower. Ashalmed to say it but I have only fired 3 rounds to far.
