    Very nice setup. I would add a couple of items if there is room. A fixed blade knife, small ear pro such as foam or gel, a couple of bandanas for sweat or as a rag to get mud off a lens, etc., and a small bottle of gun oil. If there is room.

    For people looking for a great gun light.... the Streamlight Polytac X fits standard light mounts and works with both 18650 rechargeables and DL123 batteries. Best thing is that you get 3+ hours of life out of the light per charge/set of batteries at 600 lumens. The extra modes (like strobe and low) can be locked out as well, allowing for quicker light manipulation. They're also light-weight and tough. Oh, and they sell for around 50 bucks. I have several on my guns and have used the lights on duty for the past four years. Spare rechargeable batteries are cheap, so I stick with those.

    I will preface this with I have never bought a complete AR rifle. For those of us on a budget, buying quality parts every month gets us a quality rifle with better parts that we pick is a better way to go. That $1500 rifle is now $100-200 a month without interest. Buy the stripped lower, get a good trigger, basic M4 buffer tube with spring and buffer, and the stock you want will take you a couple of months. Barrel, upper receiver, gas block, and hand guard will take 2-3 months on that budget. An armorer will put the whole thing together (properly) for (around me) $150. Get basic irons until you can afford an optic. I personally went with Vortex Strike Eagles as they are priced decently and are good enough glass to do what I want. It might take you a few months, but you'll get a great rifle kit without dropping a lot of cash at once. Just my take.

Other than that, nice kit.

    An option I could suggest would use angled BUIS if you're using a LPVO. I found the angled sights to useful if you are using magnification at the time. A quick turn of the rifle allows the back up sights instead of trying to sight through a LPVO. Great video with very useful info.

    I like the kit. My first purchase for my first AR 15, a SOLGW (Sons of Liberty Gun Works) 16" Loyal 9 FSB (forged front sight base), LFT (liberty fighting trigger) was the Magpul R44 hard case with DAKA grid system. After that I had to update the handguard to the Magpul MOE MLOK handguard for a mid length gas system. I got a M1 padded sling, the Magpul bipod and an AFG (angled fore grip) three OEM magazines and of course, ammo. I am looking at lights and optics currently. I just recently zeroed the Magpul flip up rear reticle that came on it. I also plan to upgrade the carbine adjustable stock that came with it. Strong likelihood that will also be a Magpul product. The one on it is functional but not ideal.

    Aero precision offers a small entire internal parts kit for around $40-50 incase you lose a small spring of something that goes inside the AR, I think that’s crucial, 1 small part hits the ground and vanishes into the abyss that AR is useless. Awesome video & setup broski

    Good stuff, I always appreciate a sane approach to being prepared. I agree on the 16 inch, it covers all the basis I do the same thing you do and have multiple optics assigned to a gun. A good drill for anyone wondering is to swap out optics, to include irons, at the range while shooting to understand if there are any noticeable shifts in zero. With modern optics and good mounts I’ve never really noticed a change in zero by removing or remounting them. I would be curious as to other’s experiences.

    Kinda swapped it up. Instead of 5.56. I went 13.5 ar-10 in 308. Same level of ammo availability, any place that sells ammo will have 5.56 and 308. Smaller size then 16” 5.56 and still a lot more punch out to even 350yrds then 5.56 muzzle energy from the shorty.
    I’m actually looking into 1 of those thermal red dots for it from holosun, plus a magnifier 3x. Realistically it’s built to be a 0-275yrd rig. No need for more than that truly.
    Side arm wise I’d grab my canik, but just preference over glocks. 9mm is plentiful like 308, so never a worry of ammo shortage. Even though my EDC is a xdm 10mil.

    Where I live, and in several other states, I have to transport rifle cased, unloaded, and separate from ammunition; your having loaded mags in the same case will be frowned at by an anti AG. No such impediment for an AR pistol though - you can have it loaded and at the ready. Just a thought. IANAL.
    16-inch barrel surely allows to use almost the full potential of the cartridge (only marginal gain from there to 20 inch,) but with 10-inch barrel you only lose 300 fps - which is mere 10% of velocity and 20% of energy.

    Awww man! Good kit. So many different scenarios we can all dream up. One thing I’d want to add to your box though and I never really see anyone addressing it. But some minimalist type, easy on way to carry those mags. I’m not talking plate carriers and full kits. Any ideas? Because it’s something I’ve tried to come up with that’d pack light. I bought a Ronin by Condor, but it doesn’t really fit the bill for what I’m thinking.

I am working on building out a battle belt. I have to practice with Glock since I’m low & left, but dead on POA/POI with any of my other pistols. I may buy a Shadow Systems so that I can use Glock mags but get more of a 1911 grip angle.

      I have a prism and realized that the one downside; imho, is when you use backup irons, if you need to co-witness, the glass distorts the front sight. Not sure if that affects accuracy or not but it "bothers" me to see that.

    I'd throw a light and a red dot on that pistol. I also like a red dot/magnifier combo on the rifle, but you could mount a red dot on the LPVO. Also a pretty good idea to have Fix-it Sticks (or equivalent) on board AND make sure you've got all the bits you need for YOUR platforms/equipment.

    I thought I wanted an LPVO on my AR15 and bought a Primary Arms 1-6x LPVO. I mounted it on my AR, took it to the range one time, shot with it and summarily took it off when I got home. I decided for me and because I only have the one AR (at the time. I now have an 8" barreled 300BKO pistol too), that I'd rather go with a red dot/magnifier combo. I feel a "scope", LPVO or higher magnification belongs on rifles meant for longer distances that what the AR (in .223/5.56) is effectively capable of.

      The Plano box isn't to leave in the truck. It's to have your guns ready to go in one easy to transport box. You are in the truck / car with the case and when you get out of it, it goes with you. It's not your every day carry, but for times when you might need to travel with those guns to another location. HOWEVER, I am getting ready to install a lockable in truck storage solution. Thanks for commenting. God bless you and yours.
