Tell your dad that the dust cover will clip to the bottom of the Pmag. That way you don't lose it.

Any idea on optics?

Yup familiar with the PMAGs, I just posted that pic cause best closeup of the receiver. Optics are going to be Aimpoint T-1. I figured that since this AR is so light anyway, might as well keep on that theme. Planned additions as as MS2 sling, the ASAP plate, irons (not quite sure on this setup just yet), MVG, B.A.D. level. Have a XTI Procyon that usually sits on my CZ P-01 thank God for picatinny rail standards

Can't go wrong with Aimpoint.

As far as the Magpul stuff you listed....I love the MS2. I think its the most versatile sling on the market right now. As far as the ASAP, I'm not quite sure on it yet. Something to consider is the "jingle" that the ASAP has because of the metal ring. I'm contemplating switching to the ikickhippies end plate which is cheaper and would get rid of the noise. Instead of iron sights, you might try out the MBUS. I have the rear one and it's pretty tough. You'll probably never use the backup sights once you get the Aimpoint.

At that price point, you're not going to find any manufacturer (of decent quality) that will include a rail. You can switch them out pretty easily though.

I really can't say enough about the customer service at Spikes. I just read this thread today from a fellow Texan. I was pretty amazed at the length Spikes will go:

You won't find a better deal as this one comes with M4 ramps, Chrome Lined, Double heatshield handguards, heavy buffer, A2 carry handle, and a Pmag all for $799.
