Christmas present Left handed AR

[Darryle]

OK, I have 2 Orange Lancer 30rd mags, two 10rd Pmags, with the old dust covers, Breek Ambi Charge Handle, Micro Gas Block, Spikes Tactical Enhanced Nickel Boron trigger group with a set of JP reduced pull weight springs, Ergo grip. I will stop by my guys shop and grab the midlength gas tube and a LPK with an ambi safety.

As I said last night on the phone, I offered and I will get my payment knowing that he's continuing our heritage. He'll pay us back in spades when he relates to his family and friends how him and dad "built" his rifle.

Also a set of Ultradyne C2 flip up sights, since my cataract surgery, I cannot use irons.

Good Lord..... what a group..... you guys are gonna gift him a whole new rifle unassembled.....
VERY NICE GESTURE FROM ALL......

These guys have been incredible. I keep offering to pay but looks like we will be able to get him going for under half the cost. Thanks a ton once again!!!

 

[MSURunner]

Once again, thanks a ton guys. I've tried to summarize the notes to make sure I'm not missing anything.

Notes summarized:

• Soon to buy / currently in cart: Left handed upper from Aero, $179 AR15 Stripped Left Handed Upper Receiver - Anodized Black w/ Nickel Boron BCG | Aero Precision (aeroprecisionusa.com)
• Darryle - will donate a CMC lower parts kit without FC and a BCM grip. If I don't have an ambi LPK, I will purchase it and a slim line grip and get them out to you ASAP.
• Haisardao - I'll send you a lower receiver(standard you can put ambi controls) for free, nothing fancy but it's new and seating here without use. Gotta keeps the kids engaged in shooting and hunting.
• Darryle - Take @haisardao up on his offer and I will throw in a new in the box RH Aero Precision XL upper and ambi control LPK and grip.
• Darryle - I can probably cobble together a complete LPK with Mil-Spec trigger.
• I Will need: a trigger/fire control(provided I don't have one), buffer tube kit, bolt carrier group, handguard, barrel, gas tube, gas block, thread protector

• Haisardao - I'll send a full lower minus the trigger group, swaps the safety/ and other stuff x ambi and you're good

• I will need the buffer tube, spring and weight as well. Lower has ambi safety

• Darryle - Warhammer ambi charge handle I can throw in

Questions remaining / path forward:

• Do I also need a barrel? Will any of them work? I have this one in the cart: https://www.aeroprecisionusa.com/556-14-5-m4-carbine-cmv-barrel
• I also have the left upper in the cart: AR15 Stripped Left Handed Upper Receiver - Anodized Black w/ Nickel Boron BCG | Aero Precision (aeroprecisionusa.com)
• About to run grab the kids from school but when I'm free this evening I still need to dig around, likely first on the aero site for simplicity to find: buffer tube, spring, weight
• I'll then look for ammo & sights / low power scope.
• What else might I be missing?
• Haisardao & Darryle, would you mind PMing me a fair cost of what I can pay you for your parts & troubles?

Thanks again.

I think from reading the replies that you're still missing buffer tube, buffer spring, buffer weight, butt stock and handguard. Handguard should come with the barrel nut. You'll want to confirm you'll have a wrench that works with whatever the nut is. Be sure to have the buffer weight match the buffer tube length (rifle vs carbine) and if going carbine that you match mil-spec/commercial on your butt stock.

I am sending a carbine spring and buffer, I was under the impression he was receiving a buffer tube with the lower, just not an ambi safety.

I naturally assumed since it was going to be for his son, it would be carbine to get it short enough for him to use. I can pick up a Mil-Spec carbine buffer tube today.

Sorry, the lower I sent had a pistol tube for a brace, and im
Not sure what's the deal with those these days

 

[Small Lady]

WOW

You gentlemen are amazing!

Great job with setting up this young man, and being extremely generous!!!

I'll grab a Mil-Spec kit on the way home. That way he has a new castle nut and end plate.
