[QUOTE="Korhil78, post: 578650, member: 34818"] My apologies. You said that you were "thinking" about building a 308 so I thought you were still wondering what caliber. For me, I like Rock River Arms uppers and lowers. You can get the uppers and lowers from Les Baer and other custom gun makers if you are willing to spend that kind of money. Where I like to spend my money on really good parts is the barrel, trigger (timney or gisselle) and the moving parts such as the bolt carrier and the bolt. I would go custom on all three of those if anything else. I have a Satern barrel on mine (satern is an AR barrel CO.) and I really like it. Many custom barrels that you can go with though. You can get a Les Baer bolt carrier, bolt and barrel but it is gonna cost you but it will be TOP knotch. The (free floated) forend you can just go with DPMS or another company. I prefer the ventilated ones to help the barrel cool. Gas tube and gas block, you can just go with any on midwayusa as well. I am really liking the magpul buttstock because you can adjust the stock for cheek rest height and for your length of pull. Its kind of like customizing your fit. It is heavier and pricey but very nice. As for the charging handle, I like the Vltor BCM Gunfighter Mod 3 Large charging handle assembly for the AR-10. It is very nice with the extension on it especially if you have a scope because you can use the charging handle from the side without having to squeeze your hand between the charging handle and the scope. All the parts that go in the lower recieve can be solved by just buying a lower reciever parts kit from midwayusa. You will need a nice ergonomic pistol grip. Magpul and other companies make nice ones. Buffer and buffer spring..just your run of the mill ones will work for this. Hope this helped. [/QUOTE]
