I'm not pressured by time or convenience so I don't need to worry about an assembled upper. In fact, I prefer the opportunity to build from the ground up and get some good hands on learning. Price wise, I'd like to keep my first build under $800.Depends on what kind of build you're looking to do. If you just want a bread & butter AR, I've bought a few assembled uppers (which I recommend for your first build) from Palmetto State Armory. They can sell you a decent bolt carrier group and buffer assembly. BCM has a nice Enhanced LPK with a very good trigger for the money. I think I bought my latest Magpul buttstock from Amazon. Or you can get all fancy and go with a Stag or Noveske upper, Geissele or Timney trigger etc. You can spend anywhere from $500 to $2500. What's your price range?
Being my first build it's really going to be experience (both knowledge and pleasure). If I had to choose from your list it's going to be precision, though cheap isn't bad either being my first build.what is your goal for the rifle? Cheap? light? precision? Distance? tacticool?
This will make a nice rifle for under $800.I'm not pressured by time or convenience so I don't need to worry about an assembled upper. In fact, I prefer the opportunity to build from the ground up and get some good hands on learning. Price wise, I'd like to keep my first build under $800.
