I've proposed a challenge to my father earlier this week. The challenge consists of building the most accurate AR15 within a set amount of funds within a set amount of time. The idea being, spending time with dad, swapping ideas and ending the contest at the range to prove who's is most accurate (bragging rights). So here is my question. What is a reasonable limit to set on the complete build. Now I'm not talking buying new parts all the time. I'm looking at the fun of having a shopping list when we go to gun shows and searching the internet for the best prices. So what would be a good upper limit to set? Thanks Clipfed |
Ditto!!!!! Now if you are both starting with barrel blanks, upper /lower raw forgings and a pack of parts, set the limit to $400 since this is all you need to spend. Remember, you said that your were going to Build the rifles, and slapping together finished parts/products really doesn't count (you would be only assembling the rifles). |

tyman, thanks for the upper limit. I think maybe I stated my question incorrectly. What would be a really good price to set to make this a challenge to put together? Dano, your perception of what I stated was incorrect. I did say build. and build it I will. A cook may say that if it comes from a box, you didn't make it. It's all in someones skill level. I applaud you for your machinist skills and gunsmithing tools. What is your opinion on a limit for someone looking to "assemble" a rifle ? I appreciate the input Thanks clipfed |
