The receiver, piston, trigger group,muzzle brake,charging handle, Ds Arms new Walnut Furniture Set, magazine floor plate will be my compliance parts with a gunkote finish when i'm done

Why not just use the metric barrel and get a metric gas system? The inch/metric conversion thing sounds expensive and except for looks isn't really gaining you anything. You could also just put the inch barrel on your gun and use a breaching washer.
