Here's the original Brownell's AR Build videos.
The gunsmith does a nice job showing the basic elements of the AR and their assembly.
Two missed items :
He doesn't show any receiver extension lube. (M16/M4 Tech Manual)
It's recommended to use a lube like AeroShell 33MS grease on the receiver threads and torque shoulder on the barrel extension.
He doesn't clamp the barrel for muzzle device install as you're supposed to. (M16/M4 Tech Manual)
He gets away with clamping the receiver instead because the milspec birdcage does not require much torque.
