AR Parts Pay It Forward Post - Thanks ODTers you's sum cool cats!

Hey Jbum I'm looking into doing one of those builds like you did it was a great idea. if you have any extra parts that are unspoken for i will definitely use it and rest assured it will not be flipped or sold! if not have a blessed evening and stay safe from snowmagedden 2!
 
This post is exactly what my son has been looking for. He's 13 and just started his first build. He's already completed the lower and want's to start on the upper. He plans on building a standard M4 profile upper. So far, he has some carbine length hand guards but that's it. I think he has a whopping $50 saved so far. Anything you have would be much appreciated. Here's a pic of him measuring the trigger pull with a fish scale :)

I do not have many upper parts at all? What kind of set up is he doing? Can he use a low profile gas block?

I know I still have grips and a mid length hand guard you are more than welcome to? I will look to see what else as well
 
Great thread. This is as far as I've gotten. PSA lower with CMMG internals. I don't like the Magpul stock and plan to trade it for a plain CAR style. I want to build a retro (plain) rifle. I really want an XM177 style top end with round or even triangular hand guards. But a friend of mine that's an AR buiplder is saving me an M4 profile barreled upper that no one else seems to want since it has the A frame front sight base. I could use the tear drop shaped plate that goes between the stock and rear of the receiver as well as the big retainer nut. Also looking for a plain jane charging handle.
