This is my other blaster:

Bought this one much the way you see it. An M&P15 MOE Mid Magpul Spec Series. I put on the SL handguard, Noveske 60° selector, and ColaWarrior Geisselle SSA-E, swapped the MBUS rear sight with a "contraband" KAC (come get me, NCIS) and dropped the MOE stock in a lake to replace it with the BCM Gunfighter stock. It's ok, I got it as a gift. I'm not wild about it but it works and more importantly, has QD swivel sockets where the MOE didn't. Finally plopped a Burris 3x Prismatic on top, and put a Vortex "tuning fork" on the end. That particular flash hider is compatible with my suppressor, requires no shims, is very effective at flash reduction and is self-tightening. Oh, and like 35 dollars.
It's not quite done. I prefer the angle of the "K" series magpul grips, so I want to swap that out soon, and I tend to run VFG's, so sometime soon I'll get an MLOK VFG.
The other thing I want to get is one of the short Kinect QD MLOK rail sections to mount my flashlight to. Make it easy to swap from weapon to weapon, long as I had an MLOK handguard it's pop-pop, on off.
I'm a big fan of this particular model. It's a very simple, capable "canvas" for a beginner, with an excellent barrel and sexy billet lower, and is ready, basically, out of the box to add a sling and reflex optic and then learn what works and what doesn't. I've seen (and been that guy) too many people go right to the "build" stage and end up with an over-toleranced, too-heavy, poor handling POS that doesn't do anything well...then they get frustrated. If you start out with a quality foundation, you end up more effective all around. Just my $0.02, worth what you paid for it.
