My addiction started in a much different way and a very long time ago when flat tops did not exist, only A1 carry handles and rifles had shorter A1 stocks.
But we both have the same issue once you are hooked, "YOU ARE HOOKED!"
My pics are a sample of some take off stuff I have floating around and the fishing box is full of pins, springs, hammers, triggers along with my tools and gauges to build them.
I do not know how much stuff I have traded or given away because I mean how many factory safeties do I really need to save (for emergencies) or stock grips that I hate. I have a lot more stuff floating around just did not want to dig it out.
So welcome to the AR club and I hope you enjoy the addiction as much as I do.
Remember shooting them is just as much fun as building them and when you train you will find out the stuff you really need and want and eliminate the rest.

I'm jealous of your parts stash! I would actually make good use of a lot of that stuff... I need a rifle stock/buffer assembly for my SPR, the extra triggers could be used to practice doing trigger jobs(I'll be trying one as soon as my parts get here from joebob), and the extra grips to practice stippling... but I have a lot of spare time, and aspire to take gun smithing classes later this year. I can't work a 9-5 anymore since my accident, but I'd like to try my hand part time from home working on/customizing guns. If nothing else to keep my idle hands from becoming the devils tools as they say. By the way I clicked on your thread in "similar threads" box below... I vote that you are indeed saving the world... keep up the good work.
