I was wondering if someone had some time if they could put together a list of tools they think is needed to build and mod AR 15's.
I have not done 1 yet and know nothing really about building them except for there are different tools for stocks and barrel nuts and such. i would like to know whats needed and maybe whats not needed or something you could sub in its place. Any help would be appreciated . TY. |

If you have a complete upper already, and need to assemble the rest, this is what I used.
Duct tape (to prevent scratching the finish) LARGE screw driver (for grip screw) small hammer Razor blade (to help install front takedown detent/spring) AR-15 stock wrench (castle nut?) That's about it. It would be helpful if you had a nice brass punch set, but I did not. I used a smaller hammer and improvised with a drill bit as the punch for a couple taps. It is super easy to put together an AR-15 lower. |

I just ordered this
http://www.joeboboutfitters.com/Spike_s_Tactical_16_M4_LE_Upper_5_56_p/sp-stu5035-mls.htm When it arrives i figure to put on some MOE handguards until i can afford some Fancy rails. Or maybe i just stick with them who knows. This is my first rifle and it is going on a DPMS AP4 lower. But there is a few things i want to change. |
