I decided to build my own AR-15 pistol. I started off with my lower receiver.

I got a parts kit to make that lower receiver part of a pistol and installed those.

I purchased a stripped upper and installed a parts kit and a dust cover that reads “Si Vis Pacem Para bellum” which means “If you want Peace, Prepare for War”

Next I got a nice pistol brace and a magazine with a band to label it as .300 Blackout.

I got a nice deal on a Nickel Boron Bolt-Carrier Group.

Looks great from all angles!

I just got a Faxon 10.5” nitride barrel

After getting a gas tube and hand guard, it looks nearly complete.

It’s a good length for a Dead Air suppressor to be added on the end.

The gas block is now installed, and the gun will cycle properly now.

Here it is with the MWI Handguard and the HoloSun HE510C.

This is what the HoloSun looks like to look through.

Just a suppressor left to get!
