Spike’s Tactical lower with The Punisher logo on the side. Finished in less than an hour. No vice used, either, although I know I’ll have to get one for the upper.
Now it’s just a matter of next payday to get more goodies for it.
Good for you!! Once you start building them, you can’t stop!! It’s a lot of fun to try to build different configurations. The last one I did has a Black Hole polygonal barrel and it’s a very sweet shooter.
Here’s a couple of places for parts I use.

I built my own lower, but purchased a complete upper to go with it from PK Firearms. It worked out well for me and I don’t think I would have really saved much by building it myself.

I ended up buying some Magpul handguards to replace the standard ones, so did spend a little extra there.
I think the mid length gas system is the way to go for reliability. Daniel Defense makes a good barrel.
