You can't go wrong with any of those triggers..
Best part is those $80 triggers are usually compared to $200+ geissele triggers

Perfect. Larue are good people. Install is simple too. Let me know if you have questions.
They may also toss in a bottle if dillo dust

Thanks. You guys are the pros to me so I respect all of the advice you give. Bought the sling today. Also 400 more rounds of ammo. My son is checking out lights too. Has his eyes on a Streamlight Protac 2. How important is having a light BTW? I know Surefire is probably a better light but man, they are expensive.
Personally I say all defensive/fighting guns should have a light on them (check out the Streamlight Protac HL-X) but if your are wanting best of the best... Modlite or Cloud Defensive.. then Surefire.. then Streamlight (they can be pricey but are the bestest)
Modlite light not counting a mount and pressure pad probably just under 300..
Cloud defensive OWL which is an all in one. Light mount, pressure pad is about 350

Actually ordered the Modlite Weapon Mounted Light Package | OKW | PLHv2 last night from Big Tex Outdoors. My oldest is doing my research work for me lol. The tail cap is on B/O and sold out everywhere but no biggie. Has a mod button switch also. I figured buy once cry once since this will be my only AR rifle and I might as well do it right while I can. I see that the AR is the Jeep Wrangler of guns lol. So many mods you can do. They say Jeep stands for, "Just Empty Every Pocket." Already looking at different pistol grips, forward grips, etc.. Definitely addictive. Life was simpler with just a shot gun and 2 pistols.

Sorry I'm late.
That was probably prudent given this may be your only rifle.
I will say I have MANY long guns to equip, and I've found the surefire LED G2 to be a nice option in a budget. I have long arms so a pressure switch isn't a problem for me.
You may also want to buy a quality spare bolt and bolt carrier, some extra fp retaining pins, and an extra firing pin. A premium hpt/mpi PSA bolt is fine. My complete spare is actually a Giesslie I picked up on sale for $99. Colt, psa, bcm spikes, tool craft, etc will all work for a spare bcg.
Since you ordered an MBT, your stock fcg is already a spare! I keep all of mine. You never know.

Very solid choice in light
I’ll save a chair for you at the anonymous group meeting.
You tell yourself that now, 2 years and 30 rifles later you will look back at this and laugh at how naive you were.

Did that larue trigger ship yet? Sometimes Mark is really backed up. It will ship, I promise.

Wow, I usually think I'm well versed with the seedier underbelly of the internet. But every now and then I run into something that makes me say "WTF, why ?".
This is one of those times.

Do I even want to know what search terms you entered to come up with, uh, that ?
Oh I had to search and unfortunately that meant going to furry territory.. I can't wait to get home and shower
