This winter I want to build a AR15 from the ground up and im looking at what you would use for parts to build the gun below with THESE RULES in mind. #1 Gun total needs to be $1400 or under, the more under $1400 the better!!! #2 Gun will be a .223 precision shooter+ #3 Looking for extreme accuracy up to 300 yards #4 As most of you know im very new to guns and this will be my second AR and my FIRST build of any kind. #5 Please give an explanation for the parts you choose...

Let it begin..... Douglass bbl from Compass Lake Engineering: $325 (One of the best bbls for the money you can get––also bbl used in the Mk 12 by Crane) Stripped upper from BCM: $90 (cheap and does the job as well as any other) Weaver scope: ~$200-$300 (You get what you pay for in optics, but your budget doesn't allow for any better) VTAC handguard- $180 (Free float, lightweight, no frills) Gas Tube- $10 Badger Ordnance Gas Block- $65 BCG- $100-$150 (Pick any from a reputable dealer) Spike's Stripped lower- $90 (cheap and gets the job done as well as any other) LPK- $60 (pick one from a reputable dealer. Don't worry about the trigger; the fundamentals of marksmanship apply to any trigger, unless it's super janky A2 buttstock- $55 (all you need for your purposes) Prices are approximate. My total for that is $1250. |

From Surplus Ammo
Aero Precision upper & lower $130 Pretty much the best deal you can get on an upper/lower combo. Upper Receiver Parts Kit $22 From Krieger Krieger barrel $390 Some of the best barrels money can buy. From Rainier JP/VTAC free float tube $200 Because I like them. Geissele SSA-E $200 One of the best triggers available. BCM Gunfighter Mod 3 $45 Young's Chrome BCG $180 Easier to clean. From WOA WOA LPK minus trigger $40 A2 Stock assembly $63 ETA: Total cost $1,270. |
