That all depends on what rail and barrel nut assembly you will be using. I'm very partial to the Noveske and Wilson Combat TRIM rails, because I like the way they are designed... Although, they are all pretty simple to install.

Ive been watching alot of videos and researching and even though itll be my first AR15 im REALLY considering building the upper as well.....is that a mistake?

I just like to work on guns and feel like I would enjoy it

That is all I did. Mine have all turned out great. I have all the tools as well as go and no go gauges for 5.56/Wylde, 300 BO, and 6.8...

The Noveske SBR I'm going to order will be my first factory purchase other than the LaRue I've been waiting on for a year now.


Lufkin is 200 miles from where I live, but I will be happy to help if you need it.

To do it right you will need a barrel nut wrench and a torque wrench.

Looks carbine to me. Measure the handguards, carbine is 7 ish Inches mid length will be 9 ish inches

Are the carbine systems less reliable than the mid length in your experience? Thats kinda wat I was getting from reading other places

Not necessarily. They will have a different recoil impulse.

Does that mean the carbine will have a snappier recoil?.....I plan on teachin my 6 year old daughter on this gun bc the light .223 recoil and the adjustable stock

Also if I buy an upper with a m4 style front post on it and decide later I want flip up sights could I just take off the m4 post and put on a low profile gas block??
Tons of questions I know and thanks for the help!
