With the price on the Anderson lower I finally decided to build an AR. I have done some AK stuff but this is my first EBR. I have read some of the tagged posts but have a few questions. First I want to build a simple 20" A2 similar to the M 16 we had in the Army but I want an adjustable Stock, maybe a better pistol grip. I want A2 sights, fore end, mil spec flash hider. So here goes.
What rate of twist barrel should I get, considering shooting mostly cheap stuff Wolf, Federal?
What is a decent M4 stock close to the Mil spec? I see some real nice ones, but I'm looking for function not fancy this build.
Is it more economical to build the upper or just buy one?
I see a crap ton of lower kits out there, PSA seems to have a ton of them by themselves. Is there a main co that actually supplies all these guys that you can go to the source for? Best bang for the buck on plain Jane build?
Just going to do this as I can afford to, hence my screen name. I don't need a 2500.00 rifle to put holes in a coyote or some paper.
I did buy 2 so The second build will be a little more custom.
