First AR Pistol Build (Page 1/7)
rbell2915 SEP 21, 07:07 PM
Radian AX556 lower I picked up off Armslist for $400. Seller threw in a windowed Gen 3 Pmag and a stock as well, it's pretty ugly so I'm probably going to sell it. The safety isn't installed.

Going to be a slow build while I piece it together. I'm going to be building a pistol with an 11.5in barrel. I would like to pick up a LAW folder as well but that's going to be a luxury. Might do it in the future.

That looks pretty fancy. I'm guessing it's billet?

Yes it is! It's also completely ambidextrous as well which is nice since I'm left handed.

Can't wait to see what it's like when its finished. I bet that will be fun too shoot.

Thanks a lot. I'm planning on putting an 11.5in BCM upper on it and an SBA3 brace with a splitflix. I'm hopefully trading 1000 rounds of 7.62 for an EoTech 518 this weekend so that will go on my Stribog A3 and my EXPS3-0 will go on this build. Hopefully it'll be done by Christmas since everything is out of stock right now. And I don't feel like spending a ton of money all at once so my build is going to be at a leisurely pace.

Buy once, cry one. I'd rather have one nice AR than five that aren't so nice and sit in the safe all their lives. I think after this build I'll be good for a long time.

Oh I know that's what they all say but I'm trying to save for a house and I think my wife will kill me if I build another haha

I feel ya on this being your "last build". I've Frankensteined a few SIG pistols and I think I'm done. I have bills to pay and can't justify another $800 in a pistol build.
