Quoted: Good point, I honestly would not have bought those parts from him myself, Im not a fan of Oly for anything other than the real small odd's and ends (springs and stuff) I get my stuff from Bushmaster or Colt, or even better if I can find what Im looking for....the EE

I honestly would have spent as much with him as I do with all the other guys. I am feeling bad that I havent spent anything with Teknic since he started. Non-buyers remorse?? (MY EBR department is kinda full right now, but I have bought 2 more AR's in 2005)
Seems like he does a lot of the rifle caliber upper stuff, and that is where he could have made his money 10 times over from me, as that is next on my EBR list. My gun budget is too damn much per year, and I spend as much at the brick and mortar stores as I spend in the EE as I spend with the locals from here. I will be buying a few more lowers before Christmas, guess who they wont come from.
Where someone like me is a real asset, or in this case a major liability, is from the dozens and dozens of shooters I talk to. Last week a lefty at work told me he wanted a rifle to go on a hunt with his brother. I sent him to Bens, he bought a rifle. And a scope. And ammo. We have guys at work who are getting into AR stuff?? Where would I send a non-WAC guy in Seattle? I know where I wont send them.
Quoted: I hardly think that more than 1/3 of that 60 you met with last weekend builds their own rifle.

I bet more of the people in here have built there own than not.
I smell a poll and thread coming along anytime now.
