    I run Damage Industries(INGO Sponsor) springs in ALL of my AR's.

    For 16" mid gas, standard or H buffer should be just fine, maybe save the adjustable GB for another build. they are great for SBR.

    As for the ACOG, get the TA33 green horseshoe, less magnification, but much better eye relief.

    A2 Bird case flash hidder is good enough, all my guns are suppressed so I don't really care. Use the money you saved upgrade the charging handle to a Raptor Ambi.

    Anti-roll pins, I've never seen one walked out when properly installed, pass.

    Ambi safety seletor, mage release, yes and yes.

    All of my suppressors are surefire socoms thats why i am going with that adaptor.
    I have a raptor on my armalite 3g and am just getting used to it. It ia very nice though. I have not used the horse shoe acog but midwest has them. I will give them a look.

    Not to hijack the thread, but if someone was wanting to get a basic ar for the kids to start shooting , Is it worth it to build one or just buy a basic low end model ?

    Building will help them understand the system. Psa has their freedom build kod for 349.99 today. Add a lower and a rear sight...$500 for a decent rifle. Not to shabby.
