I highly recommend assembling at least your lower. It is SIMPLE.......especially with the very nice do-it-yourself guide tacked in the build section.

get a complete lower (eaglefirearms.net, EE, etc) and a complete RRA upper (eaglefirearms.net, EE, etc)
hell, building an AR lower wont take more than 30 mins--thats less time than to order the thing.... kit guns and a stripped lower are also good to get for the $$$s (JTD and DelTon), all you have to do is assemble the lower... |

That is probably the cheapest way to get a new blaster. Dump the M4 barrel idea and just get a 16" Hbar and you will save even more money. |

stag lower, model 1 sales kit, 30 min, probably as good as you will do.

Keep an eye on the EE. I put this one together for around $550 with all parts from there.

I've got a complete (charging handle, bolt, bol carrier included) Bushmaster 16" HBAR upper on the EE for $400 shipped. It also has M4 type handguards. Let me know if you're interested. It has less than 1K rounds down the pipe.

I think you hit the nail on the head with the Eagle complete upper on a Stag complete lower. Sure, you could build one for less getting parts off the EE, etc. but this combo is quality at a pretty low price. It's what I would do. Should come out to around $700, much cheaper than your LE6920. |

Thanks for the help everyone. Looks like I have some more research to do.
I got it just after the AWB sunset with a 3 month wait. I've heard they're raised their price by $200 since then. PM me if you want more info. |
