What will be your next AR? Factory or build

[AWW34]

My next AR would have been a 7.5" 300 BLK, but I just traded for a Ruger AR 556 so the factory ar came before the home build. But this week when my barrel comes in, the pistol will come in a close second and will probably see a lot more use as well. I am building the 300 BLK to be my truck gun.

As far as AR's becoming a fad, I don't have my AR's to be fashionable.

You should make the 300 black out the house gun and put a suppressor on it. I know if your shooting intruders in the house, ear pro is not high on the list, but would help with keeping ears in tact. (All coming from me, who uses an unsuppressed 556 for the house). Just a thought.

Point taken, but I already have that one built. On the top (house gun) is my 10.5" 300 BLK. On the bottom was the beginning of my 7.5" 5.56, which has since been re-purposed to become a 300 BLK.

Thinking I would like to build an 8" bbl AR pistol in 300 Blackout, soon as I can find another affordable Spike's Honey Badger lower. Meanwhile, I'll start accumulating parts as I find them on sale.

That's what I'm working on this year...Just waiting on the form1 to get back

Got my 7.5" 300 BLK barrel installed, a suppressor would be a nice touch but I'll make do with a thread protector for now.

By the by, I was a field artillery mechanic so my hearing probably aint so good anyway.

Update.. Think I will add a Law Tactical folding stock adapter as they seem to be getting a little cheaper. Make for a package that should fit easily in a backpack or maybe one of those larger laptop shoulder bags.
Brownell's had the Law unit on sale this morning for $200, when I went to order this afternoon, was up to $215. Decided to wait, PSA has 8.5" keymod upper on sale for $230 + tax w/free shipping, gonna start there.

Thanks for your service!
