All my parts will be in this week to build my complete lower.
I was under the impression that for a first timer like me, assembling a complete upper is too much Is this the case? Thanks Paul |

I think uppers are easier than lowers to assemble, as long as you don't paint yourself into a corner based on your parts choices. Assembled upper + complete bcg + 16"+ barrel + free float handguard/rails (with barrel nut) + clamp on gas block + gas tube + muzzle device = easy, especially with a bench vise, upper receiver vice clamp, torque wrench and assembly lube. Adult legos. If you want to get fancy with pinning and welding, or staking your own gas key, or cutting your own taper pin slots, well that'll take longer and require some actual skills. |
