Default AR kit ordered today

Let's see how long it takes to get here...

any guesses?

I had my Dad order the AR kit today that I have been looking at for the last couple of months. A complete rifle kit was ordered sans lower receiver with a few options. I figure between the pile of stuff I already have on hand for this AR I can pick and choose what I want to use and either sell the remaining extra stuff or look for a really cheapy lower receiver and start a bargain builder for if/when I decide to go all out crazy on an extremely badass upper to go with my decked out lower.

Options, options...

Why did you go with the duplex hooded sight? Not starting anything, just curious.

Actually mostly because I liked the way it looked, I figure I don't plan on putting any optics on this so I will give this one a try, if I don't like it I can always put a regular one on it for a couple of dollars...
