Aero makes great stuff.
I'm really thinking about doing a lower build with a AERO lower and just getting a complete upper from them. Their system looks stupid easy for the barrel install though where you don't need to time it for the gas tube. Just torque to specs. I'm still debating how much of a full build I want to do. The lack of specialty tools is making me rethink a complete build.

Those Seekins rails are fat and heavy, especially in the 15" flavor. The only reason I would get a Seekins rail is if I needed to run a suppressor underneath it. Otherwise, I prefer a lighter slimmer profile KeyMod or M-LOK.
That's great advice. I've never handled a seekins rail. The M4 I was issued in the Army I only really carried walking to and from my aircraft with my M9 as my primary really. The M4 had Picatinny rails on all 4 sides. Aero also has these handguards....

You shoot that Mod 1? How would you compare it to the A2?
Yeah I shot it on Sunday and just got back from shooting again today. I'm not sure about compared to the A2 as this is my first AR and haven't shot one with an A2 before but I was very impressed with it.

Stray from pic rails. Go keymod or mlok. They are more comfortable and slimmer.

Just a heads up, there are some videos of optics losing their zero with seekins

I wouldn't mount optics to any hand guard or free float rail FWIW.

Could it mess up the zero on your irons?

what kind of rail is this? this is what I have on my gun, its not a keymod, but I have no idea what an mlok is...
It has a picatinny rail across the top and then you can attach the other ones where you please

I believe it's mlok

That is their proprietary system (neither mlok nor keymod).

cool
i like it, can really customize to where i want to be able to mount things, and at angles or whatever you want, instead of just 90 degrees

About to order 15" BCM KMR Alpha for my 16" rifle
My AR "pistol" lower is in the mail. Will order the Radical Firearms 10.5 upper and the shock wave "fin"
Probably toss on Daniel Defense front iron and rear and maybe toss on another Primary arms micro if I want an optic

You're gonna like the shockwave blade.
If it were legal to shoulder it, it would feel very similar to an actual stock.

As mentioned, it is proprietary. Stray from these also. You will have to order specific parts. Keymod and MLOK are direct attatch so no need for pic rail. That one requires the rails as you want to add more stuff which makes dimensions and weight increase around the handguard more than MLOK or Keymod would.

Has anyone used Monarch™ .223 Remington 55-Grain 520-round Non-Corrosive Rifle Ammunition before? 520 rounds for $150 seems pretty cheap. Should be decent for range ammo.
Academy Ammo
As a side note. Will cheaper rounds dirty up the rifle quicker?

So a lower is a lower is a lower correct? Apparently my buddy was saying the gunshop down the street is selling stripped lowers for $30 a piece. If so I'll probably pick up 4-5.
