What do the experts say...utilize a billet combination or forged?  Does it make much of a difference?  This will be my first pistol build, so trying to figure out all the ins and outs.

Is this a NEED or a WANT...

With the current situation and limited availibilty of parts.... If its a "need", any combination would be better than nothing.

Personally I think Billet looks nicer, but im not going to pass up a good deal on a Forged if its available.

556 or something else?

Every billet lower I have fits 556 mags fine, but 6.8 and 9mm adapters.... Not so much.

But right now, I'd say get what's available.

I have both available and am thinking of doing a 300BLK.  I have never built a pistol before and didn't know if I should use billet or save them for one of my rifle builds.
