    .204 AR-15 build

    So it is really gonna happen. I just purchased my wilson combat barrel. this is going to be a slow process due to budget restrictions but i am excited about it since this is my first ar build. main task for this gun will be varmints but who knows

      i am looking for input on good uppers and lowers, stocks and all. plan on a Geissele SSA-E trigger, but other than that i am not real sure or set on anything and i am open to suggestions. Also, have a bcg on the way from brownells.

        I'm a huge fan of the 204.

        What is involved besides barrel and maybe adjust gas?

        I'd assume regular lower and mags will work?

        In for the build.

          based on the research i have done, every thing is pretty much the same as building a .223 except the barrel and you are better off with an adjustable gas system.

              Aero Precision matches upper/lower won’t break the bank.

                I love my 204 AR. I have an Excalibur barrel and Aero Precision lower.

                  Everything in my build is 223/5.56 but the barrel like mentioned. No adjustable gas block and Ive never had an issue with in cycling and I built it 6 or 7 years ago. Love the round for critters. 32 grain v max and 27 grns of H4895 turns coyotes to jello and its devastating on ear holed pigs to at least 287 yds

                  aero upper and lower
                  fail zero BCG
                  2 stage rock river trigger
                  DPMS barrel (yes its heavy and long but at the time there was only 2 options)
                  ACE stock

                    My bcg came in before the new year and my Wilson Combat barrel just came today! I went and got it coated with their armor tuff coating in OD Green. It's a darker green than I expected but I like it. Everything else will be black except for the mags. They'll be green as well.
