As long as you are buying quality components, and installing them properly, you should be able to build just as good of a rifle as the big name builders do. After all, most of them are builders, they don't actually make the rifle, they just put it together. Many times, the high prices are because you are paying for a name.

Often, people think putting together a gun requires a gun smith or advance tools. Often people are mis informed and companies take advantage of this. |

Quoted:
My last build 3 gun (ish) ($1000 ish) shoots as good if not better than a friends $2000 plus stick... What are custom builders doing that a home builder can't do? Let's say I'm using same high dollar barrel ( eventhough I didn't)..... What kind of vodoo magic are they/ high end builders doing that I can't? What they say below is true, but I have learned anything you do to reduce reciprocating friction, reduces the amount of gas needed to cycle. Trigger, Hammer spring, cam pin, magazine lips, buffer spring. on and on. |
