I have a RRA mid length that I've tricked out a bit. I have a flat top, standard front sight and RRA rear with a cheap Tasco optic in case I break it at work training. I have an Aimpoint, just no need to add it right now.
I left the handguards and drilled holes to add the rails I need. I can't justify a 4 rail system, even in Iraq. I have one on the bottom for the vertical grip and one on the bottom/right at a 45 degree angle to mount the Sure-Fire weapon light. The light is meant to mount flush with the muzzle to be used as a non-lethal striking tool. I put it farther back so I can thumb the tail cap with out removing my hand from the grip. I don't use pressure pads, they fail and you end up using the tail cap anyways. Not to mention, the wire can snag if you're moving in and out of cars often.
I put an addon spacer with rings for a single point harness to attach to. I use a single point bungee.
You can get a Crane or Vltor stock or you could just get a standard collapsable and put CAA's stock saddle on it. It does the same thing for a lot less money.
I got some of my mags with Magpuls on them and the rest I just taped. I would actually recommend taping instead of using Magpuls or lolas. The tape will fit into a pouch better thanthe other options. I have a couple mags doubled up, just make sure you stagger them right so you can still eject empties with the left mag in the well. If you do double up mags, check out the RangerPlate ( I think thats what its called ) as it replaces your top round for the 2nd mag in a stack and prevents the recoil from forcing the top round out of normal position and causing feeding issues. In your 30 round mags, only put 28 in it. 30 compresses the springs funny and can cause misfeeds. Why 28 and not 29? Its meant to take that first round from the right side of the mag.
I can give you links to the websites of most the manufactures for the addons I have.
