Greetings,

I'm about to build my first AR and I was wondering if there is a good reference book, or web site, that explains the whole process.

Thanks,

Dave.

it has been a while, but in the information section i think there are diagrams and few books.  i just reread feamster's "black magic - the ultra accurate ar 15 rifle" and still like it.  

if i knew of a book that contained as much good information as this site, i'd buy it.

Why buy a book, there are lots of places right here on this board that have outstanding reading and pictures for a build.

Well, I have seen a lot of good info here.  I basically want an AR that I know inside and out.  I'm very concerned about safety and, especially, the state of the world right now.  I'm involved with a group that provides education on Radical Islam.  It's not the happiest topic these days.  

Anyway, didn't mean to go "off topic."  It's just that what I want in an AR is the best in reliability and serviceability.  In other words, if the S#*T hits the fan today, I want to know that I have an AR that I can rely on and that I can find parts for and repair myself.

Is that an achievable goal?  Anyone else think this way, or is it just me?

Dave.
