Hey all, so let me give you the low down. I'm building 2 AR's. One for myself and one for my wife. For mine I am getting a complete battlers upper to drop on my complete lower. Easy I know.
For my wife's I took in a trade a brand new Daniel defense modular float rail. I believe it has everything it should come with. The nuts and screws needed to attach. I know I will need a gas system so I'm going to use direct impingement as I don't want to spend a fortune.
So I guess my question is what else will I need to make a barreled upper? I did some searching and couldn't find how to buy a gas system. Also not sure what size it has to be. I did research on the rail and it says to use a 16" barrel. That right? So I'm guessing I need an upper receiver, gas system, and barrel?
Here's a pic of what I have. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
