In the NICS thread I posted I purchased the PSA Trump Lower.

I started the build to match my Glock 19 clone.

What’s funny is I realized today that my Trump AR “other” build has gold accents which is very fitting. I built the lower yesterday, it’s been a while since I built a lower so needless to say some springs flew around the house and 2 are now MIA.

Today I mocked up some of the upper parts minus the vertical fore grip, mind you none of this is actually put together, just staged.

I’ll update more as the build progresses.

I hope you know, you are gonna have to gold plate that rig.

I already bought some tin gold tactical paint for the engraved parts of the lower. :rofl:

I do want to add, I am not very happy with the SBA5 brace, it seems really sloppy. I like the SBA4 I have on my other build a lot better. Unless it’s the buffer tube I purchased that is making it seem loose.

My SBA5 is pretty tight fit, I also haven’t used any of the other sba braces

I’ll swap it out on my other build with the SBA4 and see if it’s the same slop I’m feeling now. That’ll tell me if it’s the brace or the buffer tube. Thank you for the input!

Put a thin strip of velcro on the buffer tube that will tighten the brace right up. That’s what I do to take the rattle out of my stocks. I cut like a 3/16 wide strip about 2" long and place it at the end of the buffer tube. Use the fuzzy side of the velcro

Thank you for the tip! Awesome idea!

I think I bought something called a ‘Split Fix’ that really tightened up my pistol braces (SBPDW).

It’s a new, heavier duty Velcro strap and with a piece sewn in for the split.

It makes an amazing difference, and was pretty cheap too.

The issue I’m having is that it’s loose between the brace and the buffer tube.

If the stock is really loose you can put a strip of velcro at the 10 and 2 o’clock position

Once you gold plate it, that’ll tighten right up.

Besides the tin gold parts I haven’t installed yet, that’s the most gold its gonna get minus the “tactical paint”. LMAO

I gotta clean up the tactical paint a bit, but the build is done and matches my Glock 19 Clone quite well.
