AIM Surplus
They also have DPMS lower parts kits. As for a walk in normal gun shop, try One Shot in Newtown. He's a RRA dealer and he may have some stripped lowers in stock. One Shot |

I don't think Shooters Supply Shop in Loveland sells AR parts or stripped receivers. They do sell complete rifles.

One Shot can probabaly order anything that you want.Everytime I am in there I see some AR parts in the back display case. I have purchased and RRA carry handle and a RRA A2 stock kit right out of the store.

a little off topic, but kinda relevent. is this your first AR, or do you already have one and think building one would be a neat project ? I only ask cause, personaly, I don't think building you first is a good idea, as there is a lot you could mess up, then you'll be spending a lot of time in the trouble shooting forum asking whats wrong. If you already have one, you could use it as a guide to go by. I know there is now going to be a whole lot of people chiming in now saying how they built their first AR and won at camp perry with it and all, and how easy it is, but I don't think it's a good idea as a starter project. just my 2 cents. good luck anyways and have fun

We usually have a complete LPK or two in stock. But like Tula said we can order parts for you no problem. Currently we do not have any stripped lowers in stock, but hoping RRA changes that soon They've been a little busy lately.

Not disagreeing with you but I want to nitpick your opinion... Do you consider it a "build" if you buy a complete kit and piece it together? That's what I did and I'm glad because it let me see how everything worked. However, even though it was my first experience with a disassembled AR, I had torn apart/messed with/shot other guns since I was a little kid. Now, I'll 100% agree with you if you mean buying an X upper with a Y BCG, Z trigger, etc. |

I'll add that it helped in my case the upper was assembled, all I had to do was assemble the lower.
Good advice.

Hey guys,
I took the advice of a forum member and picked up Stag lower from Aim surplus. Transaction was very smooth/fast/professional. I did want to add clarity to my original question about building. I consider myself capable of basic firearm repairs as I have maintained and modified my own pistols for years now. (Beretta's and Glock's primarily) That being said I am new to the A/R arena so I am taking a cautious approach. I intend on buying a complete upper kit already assembled headspaced/test fired etc.. and mating to my lower. I have read some horror stories about missing parts etc.. so I am going to do my homework before making a decision on kit. Thanks again for the input and I hope I can utilize you guys if i have questions during build. Rod |

If you picked up a complete upper and are planning on building a lower you should have no problems. The only minor problem that I had was installing the lower detent pins and springs, and that was because it was my first and I don't like to read instructions. Have fun and enjoy your new build.

I hve attempted to use imageshack previously here. IIRC, you can only use the direct link code and the photos come out small.
Is photobucket preferable?? |

Hello,
I appreciate the info. I was wondering how that worked! The Guy's at Vandalia Tactical helped me out with the buffer retainer and spring, they were very helpful. Thanks Rod |
