very nice work!
thats the way to build an ar10 cheap.i wish i had a setup like that.
Cheap I doubt it. Just the cost of the various tooling would be nuts. Mill ends, drills, reamers, broaches, fly cutters, etc do not come cheap Not to mention the Mill, Vise, setup and clamping fixtures. Etc.
Mark,
You hit the nail on the head. People have the false assumption that if you build it yourself it will be cheaper - far from true.... This little project, without tooling costs will end up costing me in the area of $1500.00 to $1700.00. The cheapest part being the detent springs at $0.75 each and the most expensive being the upper receiver at $319.00 (straight from Armalite). I will have the rifle the way I want it, with a B.A.D. safety, Tac-ops charging handle, lo-pro gas block, etc. I will also be machining my own free float handguard with picatinny rails where I need them, not where someone else thinks I need them.
My wife calls me a spoiled brat and says it's all about me, well she's right when it comes to this project and I'm not ashamed to say it....... LOL
