I have started building my ar 15 to carry in my patrol vehicle. Due to the dept limited funds only s.w.a.t. and prior military are issued ar's which equals 3 out of 17 on evening shift. This does not give me a warm and fuzzy feeling.
I have my lower assembled and need a upper that is compact and lightweight. The only certain is I would like to use the Pri Gen 3 free float handguard. I need help with everything else. Would I be better off buying from DPMS or Bushmaster and changing the handguard or building my own.
Im wanting a flat top upper, flip up front and rear sights, EoTech with magnifier, and maybe a 16" flutted barrel for weight savings. I would like to be in the upper minus optics for less than $700.
Looking for options and opinions.
Thanks
Robert
