We're sorry, Internet Explorer 6 is not currently supported by the ar15Builder.
Please check back in a few days or visit us with a newer browser.

I use IE 7 up to date!

I’ve used Brownell’s extensively in past years, when I was in the gunsmithing bidness. They’re about the best outfit to work with on a dealer basis, although not the least expensive by any stretch.

This is a neat tool, but I’ll hang on to my Bushmasters; I’m real comfortable clinging to them...

The biggest challenge facing “Black Rifle” owners?

RESTRAINT.

The frankenguns I’ve seen lately would make your head spin.

Just because CAA/Tapco makes an accessory for your rifle, doesn’t mean you HAVE to install it.

Thanks. Perfect post since I am looking to get something that fires the .556 round.

Ok. I’ve been dying to ask this question, and it’s not entirely off-topic so here goes. What is the attraction for folks buying out shelf loads of AR-15 since the election?

No, really. I’ve stocked up on ammo and added a few shotguns to my repertoire but why the AR-15?

It’s either gotta be as an investment or a SHTF type purchase. If the latter, I can think of much cheaper rifles that would fit the bill. If the former, well, I don’t know if I’d be buying investment grade pieces right now. But that’s just me :-)

I built a 105 Howitzer but it was too expensive. Shipping alone was 6k.

That 224 is great if one wants to hunt Dachsunds.

They have a nice video series on assembling the ar15 from parts kits. Very well done.

I never have put the figures down on paper but it has always struck me that it is more expensive to put together a parts gun that just buying a complete rifle.

I did once make a Frankenstein .45 auto only because I got a nice series 70 Colt frame in a trade. After I got through it turned out to be one of the better 1911s I have owned which surprised me a bit.

They really are one of the easiest pistols to detail strip. Fortunately mine already had the ejector and the safety/slide stop plunger staked in.
