AR-15 lower build
Cool stuff! Yes, I do have enough important stuff to do but, I've started
to become fascinated with the "Black Rifle" build. Just another bottomless pit potential? Another hobby run amok? I STILL want one! I have absolutely no need for one but that never stopped me before. I'll bet there is a wealth of imperial knowledge here in addition to the vast info on the web. I have a couple of Ruger 5.56s so I'm familiar with the loads, have the dies and such and it's cheap to feed and ranges are more accessible than higher power rounds. Buying a finished rifle doesn't interest me unless it was almost a gift. I want to make chips...but not too many. There are billions of variables ranging from plinkers to match. I'm leaning to the plinker knowing it will be more accurate than I am. Lowers are available in every form from raw forgings or billets to 80% to finished. The rest is bolt on fluff. (for now) Anybody have a box-o-parts or abandoned projects? I'll keep reading but there is almost "too much" and those people are fanatics, it's hard to filter. |
