| Good day to all. My name is Thomas and I am new here. Basically, I have several questions. First, I have recently purchased an AK variant (GP WASR 10). It isn't the nicest looking but functions and is fun to shoot. I, however, feel a little rushed at the possibility of a new so called assault weapons ban. I would like to get a few more hi cap semi autos before the ban is anywhere near passed. Among these I would like to get an AR, an AK 74 variant (probably will end up being a WASR 2), and a FN FAL or a G3/CETME. Anyway, getting to the point, I would like to focus on the AR for the time being. I believe this will be the most expensive of the ones I'm looking at and as such getting it out of the way would be paramount. However, first I know very little about them. I have never fired an AR or even the M-16 (Diabetic sadly military service was not possible). I understand that they are more accurate over longer distances then the AK. Second, I'm rather limited in finances would only be able to get a few hundred dollars to work with at a time. I believe from that perhaps building one would be the best option. I'm inclined to making things and following directions so I think I could do it. If I have trouble and specific questions I'm on enough forums that I think I could get help if needed. With that, I have been looking around and think perhaps I should purchase a stripped lower reciever to begin with though I'm not sure. Anyway, I'm wanting an AR in the $700 range or so not too much more but could get one a little more if needed. However, I thought over the course of a few paychecks I could buy the parts and then put it together. If that isn't the best idea I'm here to listen I would prefer to do things the best way I can (would like an M-4 style AR, small, dependalbe, carbine sized). Anyway, I here to listen to any advice out there and any help would be much appreciated. I thank anyone who can help in advance. |
 welcome to the site; advice: read, read, and read some more, esp the tacked threads and use the "search" featurebegin w/ this one for your AR builds: BUID imo, get a complete stag lower and upper from one of the dealers in the EE/ind board and be done w/ it for under $700 |
