Let the accessorizing begin

Main thing I can say is get rid of that crappy straight trigger guard and get a Rock River Winter Trigger Guard.  ($15).  More room for a gloved finger in cold weather.  Scopes and mounts are a personal choice, but I prefer the one-piece scope mounts (like the P.E.R.P. mount, but you can get others for half the price), for their machined scope channels and strength. 

Going to get one of these:

I went with a rifle length Yankee Hill free floating quad rail on my set up so it would allow for a longer sight picture and (in theory) better accuracy with open sights.  I also have more room for bi pod further out toward the muzzle.   For sights I went with the RRA tactical dual aperture rear with a Magpul flip up front sight.  This should accommodate a nice reflex sight and still give me the ability to go iron for back up.  I am new to this as well, but it seems like a good set up in my head.

Here is a link to the rra tactical rear sight.  It also has a spot for a spare battery located on the other side.

I am building mine tomorrow and will post a pic if you are interested in the way it looks.  Finally got all the parts last week.

I've got one of the Magpul enhanced trigger guards on one of my ARs (non-engraved).  RRA Winters on the other 4--I like them better....

What is the difference....I just bought the RRA enhanced to put on my build.  Why do you like one over the other?

They are both good, but the RRA trigger guard gives a LOT more room for a gloved finger.  The Magpul looks better, but I think the RRA is more fuctional.  I'm a coyote hunter--looks don't mean squat to me....

Be Meyers flash hider. Eliminates 96% of visible light. Made in Redmond Wa.  I've had it shot next to me at night and didn't get a flash while 6 ft away...
