AR15 Pistol Thread

[D-FENS]

Searched the forum and this subforum for an AR15 Pistol Thread and didn't find any matches so I thought I'd open one up. I saw other people's pic threads but I don't want to threadcrap on anyone else's pic thread.

I've been sitting on this lower for 5 years and with the panic going on, I thought I'd finally build it for my birthday.

Adams Arm 5.56 PDW EVO Ultra Lite Piston Upper - 7.5"
Anvil Arms Stripped Lower - Custom Etched with Falling Down cover art
Rock River Arms LPK with National Match 2 Stage Trigger
Phase 5 Tactical Carbine Buffer Assembly inbound for completion on Tuesday.
ETA: Bought a Troy Industries QD Back plate for the Magpul MK3 Sling.
Obvious, this isn't complete yet but I'm too excited. I'll edit thread with complete pics in ASAP.

This is my first AR build. Only tools I needed were a hammer with some electrical tape, needle-nose pliers and a hex driver. I will say however that my thumbs STILL hurt. :P
ETA: Since bought and used a Tapco Armorers Tool for the Castle nut. Also got a brass hammer and punch set for the next time. I need MOAR!!

Also, of note, the RRA LPK trigger pins are super ridiculously tight in my Anvil Arms lower. I was worried I'd need an oversize replacement but these things aren't going anywhere.

ETA: Links are broken so fixing up

Post pics of yours!

ETA: Buffer Tube took 3 weeks longer to get here than expected... But alas, it has finally arrived.

Here she is complete

And she is all dolled up for a night on the town
