First AR Project - I'm pretty excited about the build and the cost.  I'm amazed at how easy the lower went together.  I used the vice grip method to push in the pins, very smooth, no nicks in the finish.  Trigger group was suprisingly simple also.  Below is a list of the costs and conditions of the components.

Most was bought through the EE here.  Of course the lower, lower parts kit and 15 rnd mags were from PK90 (where else).

New never used - Oly A2 Upper Post Ban 16" CAR $150  (Really $200 with new A2 Buttstock assy thrown-in and resold)
New - Stag Lower $125
Used Like New - ACE Skeleton Buttstock $45
New - First Samco G-27 Grip $10 (no screw)
New - DPMS Lower Parts Kit (Great Quality) $55
New - RRA Charging Handle $20
New - CMT Bolt & Carrier Group $118

$523

If you haven't bought through the EE, this is what you're missing.

Haven't been to the range with it yet.  I can't wait.

nice build and great price you managed to get.
how many 15rd mags did you get from pk and when did you get them?

Why did I expect that as the first question.

I already had them from a while ago.

Sounds like a nice AR you put together. Crusing the EE really does pay off. Enjoy!!

Thanks for replying.  I was hoping you'd see this and comment.  I'm starting to think "reload".

I think this one will be my KISS rifle.

After this build it's easy to get the EBR EE bug.
