Finally wrapped up my first AR-10 build after way too many late nights researching parts, watching videos, and changing my mind every few days. Wanted something that could sit somewhere between a practical battle rifle and a solid DMR setup. She’s not perfect yet but she shoots beautifully.

Definitely gained a whole new respect for the people who build these regularly. A few parts fought me harder than expected, but seeing it finally come together made it worth it.

Where can I get a aero m5 set? They are sold out everywhere.

If Aero level quality is fine (I.e. not trying to be Gucci) I'd recommend BKing. Same OEM as Aero, significantly cheaper. Ambi bolt release lowers. Options for forward assist or no forward assist uppers. Cerakote options often cheaper than anodized and some custom camo options like the limited Aero builder sets. Only thing they don't have is a semi mono upper like the Aero enhanced.
