AR Build with prices. My first time
« on: February 02, 2017, 11:41:28 PM »

This is a coyote gun so black and silver don't cut the mustard for me (flame away about how you don't need camo, I don't care)

I paid about $200 for the Nikon P-223 3-9 scope and $100 for the Leupold Cantilever scope mount

the reviews I read on this BCG that came with the upper said that the ejector spring was weak so I ordered a stiffer one for a whopping $1.01

Accurate enough for A 250 yard Texas heart shot. I was aiming for the back of her head but she was running dead away and slightly uphill 😂🤘🏼

Nice build.  :tup:
Don't worry about the Texas heart shot on running game. I know hunters who do that on standing game.   :chuckle:
