I may upgrade the optic and change the sling but she is 99.99% finished.
I also want to change out the UTG riser as it is the only import product on this rifle right now.

I love it bare back. I don't care for brakes either.

All the brakes on this caliber seem to do is annoy the person next to you.

+1000 which is also the amount of dB the shooter in the next port is exposed to every time the gun goes off.

Have you shot it yet? I just one put together using PSA. Just wanted to get your opion. I ran some cheap steel cased crap through it. Ran great. Cant wait to try some heavy, nicer quality stuff. I'll probably really really like this thing......but, its not for me :cry:

Brake as loud as hell, very true , but i love the look and on the other hand it keep ur muzzle from jumping .
the other day i went to buy fresh eggs and instead i end up buying a brand new DPMS in the box post ban with factory 14.5" barrel that has a mucilik brake permanent attached , what a beauty .
regarding cheap steel 223 ammo ,an old school guy one time showed me a trick , he said load ur mag and put a drop of oil on the top of the mag(the first two rounds) i tried it and it does work
