OK you guys. I need your help. I am looking to build an AR. I need an Upper, preferably complete, a stripped lower, a lower parts kit and a stock.

I have been looking into spike lowers, RRA parts kits, and a magpul stock
Spike's Lower
Single Stage trigger parts kit
Magpul Stock

These are the parts I was thinking about, but I am totally willing to change those if you guys say there is better for around the same price. My max price is $1000. Someone said Stag Arms uppers, but your input would be awesome.

I just ordered my first AR

Spikes Lower with colored bullet markings 125.00
Legal Transfers complete Stag upper. Everything was included and ready for my stripped lower. Flat top, A3, ARMS 40 BUIS rear, standard A2 front, 16" M4 profile. LPK and stock included. He made mine NY compliant with a non-collapsing M4 look alike. Great guy to work with. I'll have a thread up when mine is complete. Highly recomend Pete at Legal Transfers. 633.00 for the upper.

Leaves me plenty of room for add ons down the road.

Edit: It's 4 in the morning and I'm trying to stay awake! No it was for the complete upper with stock and LPK. Thats all I had to add was a stripped lower. Here ya go....

So all together how much did it cost? I just need a complete rifle, and the only accesories are an Aimpoint, and a vertical foregrip.

OK, first off, you can't have that Magpul stock in California due to the state assault weapons ban. Unfortunately, you can only have non-collapsing stocks. Second, for all the parts you are looking for, I would check Bravo Company, PK Firearms, ADCO, CMMG, or Denny's Guns. They can get you the same things you are getting from the manufacturers at a cheaper price.

I have 4 of the Spikes Tactical lowers so you can't go wrong there. Also, check the Equipment Exchange for good prices on lightly used parts. Good Luck

Moving to Tennessee. Sorry. Forgot to mention that.

then I'd wait until you get to Tennessee to get your parts because most places wont even ship that stock to you in California. That said, the Magpul CTR stock is awesome. I have them on 2 of my ARs.

Well:

   633
+125
-------
  758


That get you enough to fire 10 rounds in NY. Now like I said, I need pre-ban 30 rounders and ammo.

If your talking optics then you can add $100's quicker then you know it. Look around. I researched for a good 4 weeks here before joining and then a few more before I order yesterday. I know Pete at Legal Transfers can help you out for CA. If your moving wait until you get to TN to get your rifle. As stated it seems most won't even mess with CA, except Pete.

I got an email from Pete. Im going to get a stag kit without lower lower, and a lower from either stag with Pete's help, or a Spikes. I really like the look of the spikes.
