My first build is pretty much used parts.  Things were done inexpensively and some parts might be less than par, but I have other expensive hobbies so this one will be done cheap....

How'd I do...

Brand New Bushmaster Complete Lower - $210.00
Bushmaster Dissipator 16" with M4 barrel-$320.00
New Bravo  Company BCG - 120.00
Stock $40.00
Handguard $80.00 (Its a cheap UTG, but thats alright for now)

not bad for under 800...

Not bad I guess.

Seems a little high, for a budget build.

What's a "Dissipator 16" with M4 barrel"?  An M4 barrel has short handguards while a dissipator has full length handguards.

Bushmaster makes a Dissipator upper that uses an M4 barrel, low gas block, and full length handguards and sight radius.  It makes the barrel lighter.

I didn't mind spending what was needed to get a NIB Bushmaster lower, or an upper that looks like it has 10 rounds through it.

Could have bought a bargain box for 600, but then I would not have had the experience of doing it myself, which was what I wanted.  I wanted to learn more.  

I have an Colt M4 full auto I carry every day, but its not mine...  I wanted one that is mine, and I can do pretty much whatever I want to it....  The only thing I got to do with my Colt is put an ACOG on it....

Im happy with it.
