Just a short video showing my first carbine length AR-15, an M4 clone. I wanted to keep this rifle simple but high in quality without being too expensive. Here’s a list of the parts used in this build:
-Palmetto State Armory lower receiver
–CMMG lower parts kit
-BCM buffer tube, spring, buffer, and stock
-BCM handguards
-BCM bolt carrier group
-BCM upper receiver, 14.5″ barrel with permanent flash hider, overall barrel length of 16.2″
1:7″ twist rate
-BCM Vltor Gunfighter charging handle, Medium
-BCM A3 handle/rear sight (to be purchased)
Thanks for watching!

Don't buy a "better" carry handle. You'll drop another $100+ and it'll be the same thing. The $25 SARCO Carry Handle is perfectly "mil-spec" fine.
What is the overall length with the stock fully collapsed? I'm in CA.
That's awesome !! I have a 14.5 BCM midlength. I'm looking at a M4 style carbine for my next rifle. The 16" M4's don't look right. I'm the same as you. I hate mall ninja rifles. All mine are very simple
Btw does your bcm upper have a rough finish?
So I have mine completed. Also had the psa lower at first and now have a BCM lower. Thinking I'd get a better fit with the bcm lower, but didn't. Overall I'm liking it so far. Hope you have a chance to take yours out and shoot!
I'm putting together this exact "KISS" rifle. Even with the crappy ebay carry handle until I get the bcm version.
just ordered the exact upper! hows it shooting so far?
Look just like my cmmg AR15 only different is i put the magpul stock on.
nice work on the videos! one of my favorite channels
Eagle eyes WOW, bet you were happy as hell when you found it. Keep the vids coming boss.
Glad you found that detent
Very nice. I want a BCM upper & barrel. As I build and learn more about AR's, the more I am a fan of simple mil-spec builds (Keep It Simple Stupid).
Things always turn up when you're not looking for it!!!
The build looks awesome. I've always like the "BCM" logo on their uppers. Some companies don't even mark their uppers.
We gotta meet up and send some down range. CHEERS!!!
How awesome is that, at least you have as spare coming in the mail. Laughed a lot hearing the news. Still looking for my lost parts. Get a RRA NM carry handle, works great for me w/ irons at 600 w, 69 gn SMK w/ 24 gn of (varget, RL 15 or AR Comp). Pick your poison w/ the powder. What's the twist in that Barrel you have?
Looks good, man.
very nice!
