[QUOTE="Droff, post: 3855593, member: 26615"] I have an AR but not submersed in all things AR. I know there a lot of folks on here that either build or modify theirs quite a bit. I don't shoot 3-gun or compete in any way, just take it to the range for shooting and plan to use it for home defense if there ever is a need for it. I may have put 500 or so rounds through this over several years but I do want to shoot on a more regular basis though. With that said, I'd like some recommendations for a few things - as there is A TON of parts online, it's hard for me to determine 'decent for the price' because I have no experience to bump that up against. Think budget friendly for this but also want some quality to go with that. I want to remove the A2 front sight since I have a red dot I want to run on it, so I'm thinking I need the following; - Free floating handguard (I've got a 16" barrel) so any length and brand suggestions? - Gas block, no idea on brand. - Co-witness sights, flip up, I don't have a set picked out. - While not needed, I do want to add a compensator/muzzle brake and thought maybe Troy Industries Claymore 5.56 Muzzle Brake would be decent.. or a VG6? Any other suggestions appreciated. While I'm not helpless, I don't have the required tools to do this so I'll be looking for someone that's capable and willing, with a cost or without. Willing to hold the dummy end of the tape if needed. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
