Ok I'm new and I'm building my first AR15 about half done sourcing parts. I have lots of stuff I should/want to do but I'm getting killed at work with all the overtime. I also want to get a nice waterproof stainless steel pistol for concealed carry preferably single stack and small.

Welcome. Better to be getting overtime than sitting idle.

What parts are you using for your build?

I have a couple of little parts (trigger guard, magpul AFG, magpul pistol grip) in FDE if you want them.

Welcome to WaGuns!

What "part" of the AR15 are you complete? Lower or upper or still a mix?

What "look" are you going with on the AR platform? Sniper (long), CQB (short), middle for fun? Old school or M4'ish (newer)?

well, you know what FDE is...(a color) an AFG is an Angled Fore Grip (if he's offering it up for free, that's pretty generous)
CQB is Close Quarters Combat...and an M4 is military notation for a COLT, REM or FN (or other approved contractors') AR type weapon with usually a 14.5" barrel.

Isn't as difficult as it sounds. Kind of fun to learn then you can be all operator-as-fuck (see K7eieio's random photo thread) too

It's missing the retaining bolt/nut, so less generous than it sounds. That being said, if you can find out what nut/bolt it needs, i'm sure it would be expensive to grab at the hardware store of your choosing.
