For that much of course you could buy something quality off the counter. The ones of us who build is more for the process and experience, and obviously to buy specific niche brand parts lol

 

Love my Sig 522, very underrated. That thing has eaten everything I've thrown at it. I dont have to worry about cleaning it frequently.

 

i looked at my adm/criterion/slr parts excel sheet and my eyes got really big after i totaled everything up... but i do like the experience of putting it together myself.

 

Keep in mind my gun with a standard bird cage, ch, safety, buffer and basic avg. Magpul stock and cheaper handguard would be well under $1000. Its all the stuff you upgrade that starts to add up. To build a solid set up from scratch with deals can be way less. I essentially built a bcm 11.5 on a budget compared to new and the only difference is the barrel. Which I'll eventually change to a bcm also. I already have a bcm upper receiver coming my way I bought today on gafs for $70 and I'll probably sell my androcorp one for around the same price.
An over the counter BCM 11.5 without optics, standard bcm ch and flash hider is going to be probably $1300 alone.

 

If I were to do it again, I'd find a deal on a bcm complete upper and build a lower like I did with my other 2. Mk18 upper and ddmv7 upper. Both complete and less than $1600 for both upper combined.

 

If you like the tape route but hate the sticky residue, get ahold of some gaffer's tape. Awesome stuff with no residue.

Well take 2 hopefully this one ships with the muzzle device as advertised.

 

Now that's a gun that looks like it gets used! I see a lot of "pristine" looking guns on this chain. What's the use of having a gun of any type if it doesn't get used. An unused and unpracticed gun is more of a "concern" to me to be around that type of shooter.

 

I use all my guns except for one prized one. I just don’t beat the out of them. Why would you spend hard earned money, take the time to build it and then abuse it

 

Same here. I run all of my guns regularly, I’m just a stickler for keeping them clean, oiled and always in the safe or case when not being shot. At the range, I lay out a blanket to lay all my firearms on, so they don’t get dinged or scratched.

 

Looks can be deceiving! I will not buy top shelf parts if the lower or mid shelf parts work for my application.

 

I lay mine out on a large black bath towel

 

Until people start paying for my shit.........Imma do what I want

 

Don’t ask to borrow my shit after you’ve fucked all your shit up

 

Can I at least get a Friends & Family price on "for sale" stuff?

 

Are you an Auburn fan?

 

Absofuckinglutely.........and if saying Row Tide gets a discount......keep yo shit

 

Being an Auburn fan makes you family. You made the cut
