| Why didn't anybody tell me how simple it is to build one? I picked up a S&W a while back because it was so cheap and decided to build my own. Picked up a lower and a kit and just sat down and built it. Now I need to get started on the upper. This is too much fun. I've owned guns for years but always wanted and AR15 and now that the prices are stable I think I'm all in. This site has been awesome for ideas and helpful info. Thanks! |

Very easy if you have a few specific tools.
I personally don't like using the word "build" or "building". I think it's more appropriate to use "assemble" or "assembling". Unless you are finishing an 80% lower or casting your own, it's just assembling parts. Very easy to do if you're good with Lego's |

Lol, Legos for big kids.
Same boat OP, bought a cheap Bushmaster years ago then actually "assembled" one. Once it was done I started second guessing myself and was afraid to pull the trigger. Worries about headspace and every other detail. Once I nutted up and pulled the trigger it went bang, bang, bang, etc. I'm now building another AR15 and a 308AR (that's a whole nother animal). I never shoot the BM anymore. |
