[QUOTE="DaveB, post: 5731084, member: 5958"] Hmm. There are like 30 million you tube videos on the AR and there will be some that are exactly what you need. To get what you want you will have to spend money and time learning and replacing pieces and parts. We just finished up an AR build. Some lessons learned: )))Get the right tools. No, wood clamp blocks and a monkey wrench are not substitutes. )))You will need stupid little parts that have developed legs and crawl away never to be seen again. Roll pins in particular. )))Get a fancy mag release kit. Never thought I'd be saying that but the darn thing is a huge plus. )))The drop in triggers by Arise Armament are superb. Shop them hard, there are deals to be had. I think Arise is better than that T company. )))Ditch the factory flash thing at barrels end. There are MUCH better available. )))Keep your optics simple. Unless you go to Lilja barrels or one of the other contenders your accuracy is gonna be less than what you think. )))Yes, Lilja is king. And they have the results to prove it. )))RCBS dies, Shooters world powder (24.5 gr for 55 & 62) Go here for brass and FMJ's. [URL unfurl="true"]https://brassmanbrass.com/[/URL] Best of luck.
