Building a new upper

[Gatorade]

So while I had a couple weeks to kill I decided to finish off my 5.56 long range/precision build. I settled on Ballistic Advantage Barrels.

Here are the other parts of the upper that I had already:

Aero Precision Black Stripped Upper
PSA upper parts
PSA Nickel Boron BCG
AO Charging Handle
Aero Precision 15” Quantum Keymod handguard
Aero Precision Rifle SS Gas tube

Decided on this barrel

Ordered with a BA .750 Gas Block.

When the barrel arrived I only had time for some pics and a mock up. Barrel was very well packed as expected. Rubber covers on both ends, inside lubed sealed thick plastic, wrapped in bubble wrap taped closed, packed with lots of packing material in a good quality oversized box. No chance of this barrel getting loose and punching through the box during shipment. I took pics, barrel looks great. It is very well machined and lines up with the feed ramp cuts in the Aero Precision upper.









Muzzle brake from Aero Precision.

Going on an Aero Precision lower with a LaRue MBT 2 stage trigger.

I hope to get to break it in and find out what it can do soon. All this lock down is getting boring without range time.
