Interested in an AR-15. Which way to go?
I have read some info that you can build your own AR-15 from various manufactures.
What route is best/cheaper? What to look for? Where to start? |

Re: Interested in an AR-15. Which way to go?
I would say it is wise to read the "build it yourself" forum over at AR15.

Re: Interested in an AR-15. Which way to go?
I built one about 20 years ago using a Bushmaster lower and military issue parts that I somehow acquired. The whole rifle cost me $186.00 to build.

Re: Interested in an AR-15. Which way to go?
Two of my builds:
This one is pretty much the way it is. I do have a YHC BUIS for it tho.  This one has all sorts of add ons. Crappy pic of the bipod as its not really attached (just resting on it).
