After how much I enjoyed my first AR-15 build I decided to build another that is a little more manageable and something I can shoot for fun. My first AR-15 build had a specific job and that job was to kill predators. What I wanted was a long, heavy, and accurate machine that would make staying on target an easy task. Below is the component list along with some pictures and a couple video links of it in action.





Three shots at 200 yards.
