with 16" light barrel, put on MagPul guards and an AimPoint H-1 on a riser. I already had complete lowers. No BUS sights yet. I've been shooting it with GI (some) and my reload ammo (lots) for a year now without any problem. Accuracy is more than adequate for 100 yd. Upper was $325 and AimPoint was $600 with mount. I have higher grade uppers for accuracy needs, this one was for the purposes your mentioned.
