Went with the dpms slick side upper, 18 inch ar stoner barrel bolt combo, AO precision bgc, troy alpha handguard, and a vltor gas block. Want to go with a longer barrel, but couldn't find much for availability, but can always go longer later. Hoot, did you have any issues with the dpms upper? Have read mixed reviews as far as fit and finish. Also, with a 18 barrel, mid length gas, what should I be looking at as far as buffer weight? Gonna try to run it on my bone stock 223 varminter A2 lower, until I build a dedicated lower for it. Gonna be my first complete upper build from scratch, so the questions might come quick.

Seems the 123 and 129 SST's are working good but other bullets are not chambering well at the right COL.
