    Parts Recommendations for Build

    I am planning to do my first build of an upper and am looking for advice on the parts I need. I had purchased a Grendel upper 2 years ago, it was very accurate but had a bunch of issues with extraction that I was unable to resolve so I sold it. So here I go again. Here is what I have ordered so far or can pick up locally. I am looking for suggestions for the additional parts I need that won't break the bank. This is for a bench shooter.

    Ordered:
    Brownells 24" barrel and bolt, will cut down to 20-22" and re-crown
    Free floating tube rifle length
    Rifle length gas tube
    RRA A2 butt stock kit
    RRA NM 2 stage trigger LPK
    Spikes Punisher lower and Spikes upper (to be purchased locally)
    charging handle (to be purchased locally)
    spur grip (to keep it legal here in NY)

    Need:
    Gas Block, .750 and adjustable
    full auto bolt carrier
    10 rnd mags

    Did I miss anything?

    Thanks, Ken

    I'd be thinking Giesele or ALG trigger group for the money.

    Daniel Defense, LMT, or BCM FA bolt carrier. You could probably buy a complete BCG and sell the bolt for cheaper than you could buy a lower quality FA Bolt carrier

    Rather than hand guards I'd be looking at ALG or MI free float tube. Lotta bang for the buck.

      I did get the free floating tube, not hand guards. I fixed that in my post.
      I got the RRA LPK with 2 stage trigger for $95 so pretty happy with that.
      I'll check out the bolt carriers you mentioned.
      Thanks!

        Adjustable gas block you have a a few options, but if you plan on shooting it alot I would spend the 120.00 and get the SLR. If you need one for less money you have Syrac not much cheaper, JP and Seekins
        12.5" SBR Grendel - Need Barrel
        Surge - Rugged Suppressor
        Been a fan of the Grendel from the very beginning and haven't second guessed that choice one time.

        Aim small, miss small!

          PSA BCG for $70, and you could sell the bolt for at least half of that

          The gas block is up to you, SLR does look nice. I use JP blocks, but they are sometimes too big for small handgaurds
