OK here it is, I am going to build my first ARs as soon as the ban goes away. Price is a consideration but is not the only concern. I want one lower, two uppers. (one 5.56 and one 6.8) Carbine length, used for fun, three-gun, and home defense. Quality is important to me, as is the trigger and overall accuracy. I would also really like to put a suppressor on it. I may build a DCM gun later but this is just for fun. What would you build and why. Educate me. Thanks in advance, Robert |

Well, I'm not familear w/ the requirments for 3 gun...... so I suppose the lower should qualify for that. Also, what is your budget? The easiest suggestion for the uppers, is to buy complete, ready to install. RRA uppers run about $425 for 16" A2. Lowers (complete) from RRA are around $250 extra $120 for national match. If you assemble.... lower $90, butt stock kit $55.00, lower parts kit $60.00, two stage trigger $90?..... total = 205-300 (w/ 2 stage). Granted, some of those prices are on the high side. The benefit, you don't get hit w/ the entire bill at once, you buy what you can afford at the time. My suggestion, look at Eagle Firearms (they are a dealer w/ ads here). They have good deals on RRA, Stag, etc. I think they have a sale on their RRA stripped lowrs. Look in the equipment exchange.... Buy your lower and parts now, before the ban ends. You'll have it. If the ban ends, order a pre ban upper. If, by chance the slim balls sneak a back door, midnight attachment renewal (you can see I am in favor of it dieing) order a neutered (LOL) upper. |
