So I've given in to the bug. After an SAR-1, a .308 Enfield, a few other knicks and knacks...

I -really- want an AR-15.

My usual point of supply, Popguns, however, won't order a lower receiver. I'd like to put the thing together myself - to learn the rifle, and to save some money.

So, what -good- experiences has anyone had with Indy-area FFLs, as far as getting parts in? If it matters at all, I'm considering a Bushmaster lower, not sure what kit to purchase yet - Model 1 Sales has caught my eye, though.

Try Albro's. They're pretty easy to deal with.

Course ya could buy a NIB Bushmaster from me... I'll even take it apart first!

Now you've got my attention...

And you know, I'm almost tempted to take you up on the 'take it apart first offer'. ;)

Seriously, though, drop me an email - I may not be buying for a few months (got to accumulate the $), but I am interested.

Plainfield Shooting Supply can order a lower for you.  IIRC he quoted me about $100-110 for a RRA lower.  The RRA upper I got through him came in on the day he said it would.

Be sure to look at the J&T kits too.

Bradis Guns in Camby IN can order whatever you might need. I work there on weekends and know a thing or two about ARs, having built 4 myself. If I can be of any assistance, LMK.
