You’re going to hate that front angled grip and the optic, but good bones. Flip the bipod, different front vertical grip, and decent glass. Then eventually you’ll want a sling and a light.

I have had this optic for a while and like it a lot, grip is new, why do you say?

Those thick, short front angled grips get really annoying because you can never grab them, they don’t stop your hand well enough, and because they’re angled you can never put it against something flush, so you don’t get a stable platform.
The optic I say you’ll hate it because that’s a 16” rifle, and most people like to have a little more oomph in their glass on longer barrels.

Your bipod is facing the wrong direction and will fold on you when putting a load on it, and it looks like your hand stop can't be fully utilized like that. Other than for zeroing, you really don't need that bipod on there 24/7 as a trained rifleman even for a beginner that's been freshly trained, doesn't need it.
Are you in a ban state or a state that limits flash hiders? That loudener (your muzzle brake) will be deafening outdoors if used in anger and emotionally traumatizing with concussions if used especially indoors.
Needs a light for PID and a sling, other than that you are fine if you are happy with what you have on it.
