Need ideas!

AR/M4 Custom Build Forum

So Ive got an extra M4 upper(G&R upper) and a extra stripped lower(RRA…ya ya) - I have a Commercial CTR, Tube, Buffer to go on this already, but I can always change it.

I need ideas for a new project. Ive got a 11.5in SBR(mostly BCM and Magpul) and a 16in Recce(BCM ss410 Mid and 3-9x40 burris) and a 20in A2 Bushmaster(NRA Service Match Rifle)

So Im just wondering what my next build should be. Honestly dont know what I want to use it for, maybe a General Purpose rifle, but I really dont know.

So dear wonderful and wise friends of M4C, please give a fellow AR nut some ideas on what my next build should be.

Maybe a dedicated 3gun upper consisting of a BCM BFH 16in Middy, some quality Irons and a Troy TRX? Or maybe even something in a different caliber that will fit this upper/lower combo.

Looks like you’re missing a 14.5" or 16" carbine with an ACOG or an 18" SPR with a 3.5-10X optic. It won’t hurt you to get a mil-spec buffer tube, you can probably sell your commercial one to help pay for it.

Id like to go with a 14.5in but I really dont wanna SBR another lower and I dont want to perm attach a muzzle break. a 14.5in Middy would be great, so I was thinking maybe a 16in with ACOG or maybe just go with a KISS build and add optics later.

18" SPR? :cool:

Sounds like a SPR in 18" or 20" might fit the bill. The SBR is covered and a couple other ars are already on board. Maybe a medium to long range zombie killer is called for now. I have a 20" SPR that the coyotes just hate down here in the south. I also like to have the AR field covered with different types. my 2cents

What are your current needs? If there isn’t a need that this rifle will fill, maybe you’d be better off selling it for ammo or training.

Just saw a Spike’s Tactical build with a 5.5 in .22 LR barrel with suppressor. Only 5mm of the suppressor stuck out the end of the railed hand guard. No hot barrel to burn your leg when the rifle is hangin by your leg or other burnable body parts. Very impressive looks and cheap, fun shooting/training.

I would go with a 18" SPR. And I would trade the commercial tube for a mil-spec one.

I could use a 3gun rifle. I really dont have a need for a SPR, the farthest I have to shoot here is 400-500yds, so my RECCE fills that role perfectly.

Any ideas for a 3gun rifle? Upper mostly as I have a good idea what I want in a 3-gun lower.

Maybe a 16in Mid-length BCM barrel, BCM BCG, VTac or TRX Extreme hand guard with a quality 1-4x20 optic.

I honestly don’t know anything about three gun. From what you described it sounds like you could use your recce.

thats what I would like to do but I feel like Id be at a disadvantage at “close range” targets with a 3-9x40 and no close range sights. although it would probably work. This build isnt going to get built in a quick fashion, just a summer project.

Offset optic like a T-1 or an RMR? Offset irons?

Have seen these on three gun rifles.
