Gents,
I am about to start my FIRST build of a .308 AR platform and I need some information.
1.) Is there a separate LPK required for the .308?
2.) My lower is a machined 80% lower. That is already done and looks good. Rather than using trial and error, is there any way I can tell what upper is going to fit, DPMS/ RRA/ ??? Same question concerning magazines.
3.) Any suggestions on barrels? I'm looking at a 20" as all I plan on doing for now is shooting paper?
4.) Any suggestions on optics and bipods for down the road?
I have assembled 4-5 5.56 lowers and have the basic equipment. I just want to know what I am getting into before I start dropping more dinero than just going out an buying a factory-built.
Thanks is advance for your help!
