knights top and BCM bottom.
One I built myself. So I can cherry pick all the high speed low drag stuff.
Is that a QD mount on the KAC lower receiver where the rear receiver detent pin goes?

I think that's pretty much everything, and would be under $2k if you shop around. Not sure what more you could want...
Bolt on your favorite mount and glass, and you'd be good to go.
Why would you get a BCM Buffer Tube Assembly and a UBR stock when you can't use the RE from BCM since the UBR has its own proprietary tube? All you need is a buffer spring and buffer.
Did not know that. I don't own that stock or plan to. My CTR has been fine for me. I was just listing a higher end one for reference.
Changed it to an ACS-l
These are a lot of nice rifles guys no doubt. I don't question anyone's veracity, but I'd really like to see the exact breakdowns on how you put together a KAC, Noveske, or Wilson Combat AR for less than 2g. I felt like I would save money assembling one and then when I really and honestly put together an itemized list of parts with tax and shipping, it was well more than I thought I had spent.
Would be cool to see a truthful and detailed list of "premium" AR build for less than 2g. I would also be of the thought that, as the OP meant it, (please correct me if I am wrong) a premium AR doesn't have an A2 flash hider, MOE hand guard, standard charge handle, etc. It should have premium components and not just a premium roll mark.
Nice Job Man! I am impressed. I have spare time, so I did a quick check for prices and my total came to $1964. That assumes no shipping or tax and some items were out of stock where I found them, but I'd say you did it. My only hiccup was that the varmint barrel wasn't threaded, but I assume you can sub in another WOA barrel.

Seems like a "what's your fav" with 1000 answers... I'll play
In no particular order, but if I were buying a complete one I'd probably go with one of these.
LMT, Noveske, LaRue, POF
Those of you that don't include BCM in your list, why? Do you have something against them or just feel that your recommendations offer something superior?
