Got a question for you all that are gun guys; I was looking online at those kits where you can build an AR. I don't consider myself a skilled wrench, but it looks like something that would be enjoyable. I could get parts little by little (when I could afford it) and build it the way I want. Any opinions out there???
Built quite a few AR's here lately and they can get quite addictive. What are you wanting to build and what are you going to be using it for? Want something long, short, slim, wide, light, heavy? Want something old school retro or modern looking? Iron sights, scope or high tech optics?
You can get some of the basic components quite cheap that are great quality where other components are going to get spendy to get good quality. Don't skimp on the trigger or the barrel.
*Note: I know it'd probably be cheaper (and easier) to buy one and outfit it as I go along; but I'm starting to get back into shooting again and would like a challenge.
