I should get an A. The top piece is installed the wrong direction. See, I do know a thing or two!

Send it...
My thoughts, for whatever they are worth.
The most critical part to your build, regarding accuracy, is the barrel. Don't skimp on a barrel if you want an accurate rifle. Not saying you can't luck out and get a cheap, accurate barrel.
The upper receiver must have good feed ramps.
The BCG would be the next most important piece.
The lower is almost dead last on my list of critical pieces.
I've seen some great builds on Poverty Pony, Anderson, lowers. They all involved good quality barrels.
Other than the barrel, the most important component is the person assembling the firearm.
Oh, and this is NOT gunsmithing. This is parts assembling.
I want a PDW but I don't want to spend Maxim or Saint money on one so I just ordered a PDW braced lower from PSA. My first venture into poverty land, well my S&W is listed as poverty, but it is not a sport, so who knows. It goes bang in a straightish line.

The one and only SAINT I shot went back to Springfield after a few magazines fired.
It was a SAINT Edge Pistol with multiple issues.
I don't think HK, KAC, or LMT care much about "the ones at the bottom." Those companies mostly use proprietary parts and run off government contracts. So I would say you missed a lot.
I've never been a fan of DD, for many reasons. After seeing them assemble multiple rifles, I would spend my money elsewhere. SOLGW and BCM are tough to beat in the same price range.
I've yet to mess with a complete Seekins rifle, but I have a few of their LPK's and I'm happy with them.
SOLGW being in the Mid-Tier is laughable.
I also have a rifle/pistol without a proven track record. ZEV sent me the receivers for winning a competition. I will say the fitment is TIGHT, like use a rubber mallet the tap the upper and lower apart tight. The finish is VERY smooth and slightly glossy, the black is VERY deep black. I had a zev trigger in it, but didn't like it that much, Still much rather a "G" trigger or CMC.
I am sure making it shorter made it more reliable... I still need to decide on caliber and barrel length for my poverty PDW.
One at a time
Last year I shot next to a guy who kept yanking his charging handle. His friend built it for him. I guess I’m a dick cause I just let him keep on keeping on.

My only suggestion about a sub 10" 556 gun is don't do it, but it you really want one, it makes for a good range toy when you're throwing fireballs down range.
A 7-8" barreled 556 gun is losing a lot of rail space and any advantage of shorter length is negated by how loud and violent it will be. It's not even worth suppressing at that point.
