For next year, I've Been debating on just buying an AR-15 and saving time and effort (or just being lazy) or building a custom AR-15 to my own specs with everything I want without modifying a store bought. All pre-built models and custom-built models I'm considering are approx within $500 or so of each other. Just, 1 model requires time and effort to build, and on would probably stay stock for the most part and go straight to work.
I've got some trigger time with this platform (former military) and am a very quick learner when it comes to general smithing and so on, but this would be my first civi AR purchase/build. The idea of building intrigues me and makes learning the nitty-gritty of the platform easier, but makes me just a bit nervous, in case something goes wrong...
Specs required: MPI/HPT Barrel, MPI BCG, 16" mid-length, chrome lined barrel 1/7 twist, A2 front sight, rails with qd mounts, mil spec everything.
Still debating VLTOR EMOD A5 Stock kit vs reg m4, ctr or other mil-spec stock.
There's so many options out there, I can't seem to decide, so I figured I'd get some feedback from resident experts.
BTW, this would be my SHTF/GTW weapon, so I'd like quality stuff without breaking the bank, at least right away...
Opinions? Thanks for any feedback...
